Urine powered generator for developing country

Can a urine powered generator really work?

Impoverished countries have long taken a proactive approach to using their limited resources and originality to meet the various demands of their populations.

Joining in the demand for alternative fuel resources, Nigeria has developed an unusual method to produce hydrogen to power a cylinder. More specifically, a group of 14-year-olds have developed a urine powered generator that can provide power for six hours on just one liter of urine.

Sustainable generators
This innovation could produce clean energy to billions of people and not disturb our environment or affect our shrinking resources.

These 4 girls, Duro-Aina Adebola, Akindele Abiola, Faleke Oluwatoyin, and Bello Eniola, have established that operates this way; urine is placed into an electrolytic cell where the hydrogen is separated; the hydrogen goes into a filter for purification and then into a gas cylinder; the gas cylinder forces hydrogen to flow to a cylinder of liquid borax, where moisture is removed; the purified hydrogen gas is then pushed into the generator, providing the fuel for the generator.

Simply stated, the urine is transformed into hydrogen (through a simple process) which powers the generator.

A similar and patented technology was developed by E3 Technologies, LLC, from Athens, Ohio, whereby commercial and agricultural waste water was cleaned and used to produce hydrogen energy. Their method involved an electrolysis process that converted ammonia and urea to hydrogen, nitrogen and pure water. The electric current produced an electrochemical reaction, which oxidized urea for movement into the electrolyte material.

Clean energy through alternative generators

The potential of this clean energy process could set the stage for all homes to be energy self-sufficient using their bathroom waste disposal pipes.

Obviously

the technology has been discovered to help lessen our dependence on fossil fuel for the generation of power. Now it is up to us to develop the ability to utilize this new and innovative technology and adopt a philosophy to try it.
