Floating robot cleaner and the cheapest device for cleaning the ocean

Hydropower is developing by leaps and bounds, so always be a unique development that not only generates energy but also perform other useful functions. Consider the following features of the two latest developments from the field of hydropower.

Floating boat cleaner

Robot Row-Bot, floats and receives energy through the processing of microbes in polluted waters. This technology allows purification to produce sufficient energy in order to ensure the functioning and movement of the device.





The robot collects the dirty water and turns it into energy, and then again collects the water and it all repeats again. It is worth noting that this robot was created by analogy with insects Glebskom. The robot design is incredibly simple and consists of only two parts, namely the drive mechanism and artificial stomach. It is equipped with a paddle that moves through a mini-engine and the second specialized microbial fuel cell. This fuel cell operates similarly, as usual, but uses bacteria.





According to the creators, such a robot can be used in a variety of cases. It would work equally well to marine, sewage, water, and any other water. You just need to place the robot into the water and leave it there for a period of time that is needed for high-quality cleansing source.

As noted, the principles of the bot can be used to create its analogs, which will operate in air. But, you have to work hard to adapt the robot to work at height.

Device for water purification for twelve dollars

The Creator of this unique device is a 15-year-old schoolgirl. For the creation of inexpensive and practical means she received a certificate for twenty-five thousand dollars, and is the highest award in the competition of young talents.





The device bears the name "Ocean Energy Probe" and is meant for developing countries. In the structure of the device screw from environmentally-friendly material, PVC pipe, pulley, alternator and several other items. All this at a cost of twelve dollars, which is a very small price for such a device.

In the form in which it was created, the schoolgirl, the device is able to provide electricity to only a few bulbs. But, according to girls, with some refinement, the device will be able to produce energy in sufficient volume to charge three rechargeable car batteries in just one hour. In addition, the device can be used to power pumps, or important medical equipment such as separators.





Young the developer won't rest on our laurels and will continue to work with his mentor on improving the device so that it could maximize the use. To create the device, which was presented at the competition, a girl with mentor spent three months.published

P. S. And remember, only by changing their consumption — together we change the world! ©
