Energy crisis on global scale

Our primary energy sources.

Need of new energy sources.(RNB and STB)

IN PAKISTAN Energy crisis in Pakistan.

Other means are very Expensive .

Plant waste

Break Down

Electrodes

A) PHOTOSYNTHESIS

6CO2+6H2O = C6H12O6+6O2

B) TRANSPORT OF ORGANIC MATTER TO

THE ANODE COMPARTMENT.

(C) ANODIC OXIDATION OF ORGANIC

MATTER BY ELECTROCHEMICALLY

ACTIVE BACTERIA

C6H12O6+12H2O = 6CO2+30H++24E

(D) CATHODIC REDUCTION

OF OXYGEN TO WATER

6O2+24H++24E = 12H2O

PILOT PLANT

PLANT-E IS STILL IN THE PRODUCT-DEVELOPMENT STAGE.

HOWEVER, A FIRST LARGE-SCALE DEMONSTRATION PROJECT IS IN

OPERATION AT THE CRADLE-2-CRADLE BUILDING OF NIOO:

FOR A PROOF-OF-CONCEPT OF THE “GREEN ELECTRICITY ROOF”.

ELECTRICITY GENERATION POTENTIAL

EUROPEAN RESEARCH CONSORTIUM IS WORKING ON OPTIMALELECTRICITY PRODUCTION OF 3.2W/M2 (CURRENT 50mW/M2). ON AFLAT ROOF OF 50 M2 , 150W COULD BE CONTINUOUSLY PRODUCED.

ASSUMING AN AVERAGE ELECTRICITY NEED OF 500W, A GREEN ROOFCOULD PROVIDE APPROXIMATELY ONE-THIRD OF A HOUSEHOLD’SELECTRICITY NEED.

ENERGY USE BY THE HOUSEHOLD WILL DECREASE FURTHER DUE TOTHE INSULATION CAPACITY OF THE GREEN ROOF.

SO ACTUAL ENERGY SAVING IS MORE THAN ONE/THIRD.

AT AN ELECTRICITY PRICE OF RS. 4.00/KWH, A 50-M2 ELECTRICITYPRODUCING GREEN ROOF COULD POTENTIALLY SAVE A HOUSEHOLDRS 5250 PER YEAR APPROX.

COMPARISIONS WITH OTHER ENERGIES

THIS CAN BE INTEGRATED WITH THE LANDSCAPES, FOREST AND FARMS.

THE POWER GENERATION IS LESS (APPROX. 1.6 MW/KM2) AS COMPARED TOWIND (5-7.7 MW/KM2) AND SOLAR (4.5-7.5 MW/KM2), HOWEVER IT IS CHEAPERAS COMPARED TO THE BOTH OF THEM.

THE POWER OUTPUT OF WIND FARMS AND SOLAR FARMS WILL BE THREE- TOFIVEFOLD HIGHER THAN THAT OF Plant-e

COMPARISIONS WITH OTHER ENERGIES

HOWEVER, Plant-e Have no Bad Impact On OurEnvironment.

NTPC COULD OFFER AN OPPORTUNITY FORELECTRICITY GENERATION WHILE SUSTAININGTHE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT

COULD PROVIDE 24 H/DAY ELECTRICITYGENERATION WITHOUT THE USE OF SCARCEMATERIALS AND WITH NUTRIENTPRESERVATION.

SUMMARY

SOCIAL ADVANTAGES

PLANT-e CAN BE IMPLEMENTED IN (SEMI-)NATURAL ENVIRONMENTS

SUCH AS RECREATION AREAS, SALINE SOILS, ENERGY ISLANDS,

SELECTED WETLANDS, BIOREFINERIES ETC.

It Does Not Affect Our Eco System.

Shows No Disturbance .
