Wood Boilers

If we go by natural facts then it’s absolutely accurate that we would on no account be competent to neutralize carbon effects of wood burning in our lives but we may possibly accept this and make the most of it in newly designed wood boilers. The concept revealed here articulates that these pioneering boilers breed out only that much of carbon dioxide by burning wood which a customary and natural decay process of woods in forests would do. Putting this in another way we can say that without augmenting in the already established environmental carbon intensity levels, this new range of wood boilers bequeath us with much healthier green boiling option.

Cargo Ship

So what exactly is ‘Solar Cogeneration Power’? That is probably something that we should clear out first and foremost before getting in to the meat of the matter. It is quite simple actually and it just means that solar power will help power the engine to a partial extent. Why are we so bothered about that one little term when we have such a huge story unfolding before us? Simply because it very cleverly hides the fact that this Solar Powered Cargo ship will probably be powered by solar energy to a very little extent. I would be surprised if it was even 10% of the total power required to power a cargo ship.

Human Dynamos Fashioning Green Power Gyms
Posted in Electricity, Energy, Products, Renewable on 28 August 2008

As nowadays a grave alarm is buzzing against dousing energy resources, we are in a continuous course of carving novel green paths in order to preserve prevailing nonrenewable sources. It is worth here to mention that our human intellect is so spiky and witty that we curtly get a way out of every hitch. Corroborating this is the most recent transformation which we are commencing in our fitness centers on an outsized scale. This modernization is particularly brought in to offset the mounting energy crisis, as in these gyms the human calories scalded per hour by working out would actually engender equivalent watts of electrical energy for powering up the rooms.

Accordingly “The Green Micro gym” in Portland has thought-out adopting this green concept in their gymnasium as well. Basically the mechanism generating energy via exercising is quoted as ‘Human Dynamo’ and it is clasping exactly four spine bikes enclosing weed whacker motors which in turn are coupled to a mini generator.

Nirvana of Energy Decoded by Scientists at MIT!
Posted in Efficiency, Energy, Power, Solar on 3 August 2008

Startling is this fact about solar power that, just about an hour of sunlight hitting the Earth’s surface is sufficient to fulfill the power needs of humans for an entire year!!! However, we know that if our systems were that efficient how much power we could generate with the sun rays coming down on our planet for the whole year. Besides expensive silicon components of a photovoltaic panel and low system efficiency, till now our knowledge on the mechanism behind solar storage was also limited. Bugged by the twin factors of inefficiency and expense a MIT professor Daniel Nocera undertook an exhaustive research at the end of (which he believes) his team has unlocked the ‘nirvana of energy’.The Henry Dreyfus Professor of Energy, Prof. Nocera has made a discovery that may change the way we have so far used solar power through PV cells. Being inspired by green plants that photosynthesize and store solar energy all the time in them, Prof. Nocera has developed a simple method to split H2O molecules.

Breaking New Grounds: A Solar Activated Pasteurizing Milk Contraption
Posted in Eco-Friendly, Green, Power on 1 August 2008

A newly set up innovative appliance in Nicaragua serving twofold benefits gravely deserves our consideration as this exceptional eco device while curbing global warming surely cuts down one’s disbursement level as well. Originally invented by researchers from the Agrarian University of Nicaragua and Spain’s University of Lérida this machine is presently accommodated in the Agrarian University of Nicaragua’s Department of Animal Sciences.

It is nothing but a freshly installed milk pasteurizing machine that could be powered purely by sunlight charged panels. Earlier people who used to boil unpasteurized milk would promptly hit upon this machine to get rid of superfluous parasites while meeting international health standards. Here in this application, the milk is warmed up to a temperature of 185° Fahrenheit or we can say 85° Centigrade by means of a mechanical system which gets powered from solar panels. Nowadays, the machine is being utilized to prepare cheese and many other dairy products.
