THE GREEN ENERGY TECHNOLOGY PROJECTS

Modeling & Simulation of Carbon Recycling Technology through Conversion of CO2 into Useful Multi- Purpose fuel:
The project aims at development of a pilot plant for CO2 capture and production of useful multipurpose fuel like Hydrogen, Methane and Algae growth for Bio diesel production in the Energy park of RGPV.

OBJECTIVES

Sequester CO2 and convert the same into useful multipurpose fuels.
Use CO2 to grow micro algae to produce Bio-diesel and Methane Gas.
To establish a Pilot Plant for CO2 sequestration and conversion in to multipurpose fuel.
To develop mathematical & chemical models for CO2 sequestration, Hydro Gasifier & Algae pond systems.

For this purpose following four systems shall be incorporated:

CO2 sequestration system Metallic solvent for CO2 capture
Catalytic Flash Reduction of CO2 using charcoal from Gasifier.
Production of Hydrogen from CO.
Production of Methane using Hydro Gasification of Biomass process.
Pilot study to capture CO2 for algae production and extraction of Biodiesel

METHODOLOGY

The Rajiv Gandhi Technological University is having 10 kW Biomass Gasifier and Bio-Diesel Reactor (100 LPD) in its Energy Park. Using Exhaust from Gasifier and Char coal, a pilot plant for capture of CO2 based on Chemical solvent and for converting the same into useful fuel like Hydrogen for Fuel Cell application and Methane is being developed. Additionally, a Bio-fuel Incubator is being developed for producing variety of Algae culture for CO2 capture. An Incubation Unit on fuel Cell is also being developed by RGTU in which Hydrogen from the pilot plant will be the prime input.

OVERALL EXPECTED OUT COME

Development of a working plant to Capture CO2, the prime GHG and generate non conventional Energy sources viz. H2, CH4, Bio-diesel and thus provide formidable support to National Mission on GHG reduction for combating Global warming and consequent Climate Change.

SOLAR WIND HYBRID SYSTEM:

A 1.6 kW Solar Wind Hybrid System has been designed and erected at Rajiv Gandhi Technological University Bhopal with a Solar-Wind ratio of 3: 13 i.e.300Watt Solar & 1300 Watt Wind. This optimized configuration has been chosen through WaSP software. A Biomass Gasifier is being integrated into the system for a reliable configuration of Hybrid system of the three Renewable sources. Following and equipments were used for setting up of Solar wind hybrid system:

1300 Watt Wing Electric Generator
150 AH Battery Bank
300 Watt Solar Panel
Inverter Unit
Street lighting through CFLs
Instrumentations- Anemometer, and Radiation Pyranometer
