TITLE: Design and Fabrication of back-up power stored in a battery

generated by a backyard trash incinerator


The study aims to address our growing need of space for nonbiodegradable trashes in our country, the issue of overpriced and unstable
electricity that is sometimes inaccessible in stormy days.
Its primary use is to make a systematic burning of combustible trashes
from our daily household work. In this manner, it will wait until a certain
mass or weight is achieved there by triggering the start of an incineration.
The heat produced by the fire shall be manipulated in such a way that it will
concentrated in an area of aluminum and iron plate sandwiching a graphite
material. This said materials will be the key for producing electricity. Though
voltage values up to this point in the research irrelevant, it can be estimated
to produce 200mV. The smoke produced by the process will not be an issue
as there are already ways of insuring that the smoke coming out of the
incinerator will be of a color that is fully combusted.
Related projects have been made outside of the country already, but
they were meant to be used as a main source of energy for schools and
country-side villages. This study will be limited only as a back-up power or as
an alternate source but not as a replacement as the efficiency of
thermoelectric process is still below 8% of our current electricity source. The
researchers of this study will also try to find a better thermoelectric material
that will increase the voltage output.

The study will revolve most likely around the thermoelectric


generators, its efficiency and cost. It will also be researching the best way to
start a fire with the less use of fire starting materials such a gasoline.
