Project is based on electricity produced by using noise.
It’s work on basic principle of Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction(coil and magnet).
Working of my project is from the oscillation created by the sound wave which can be further converted to electricity from the woofer.
Woofer converted magnetic to electric energy and this electrical energy tried to grow small toy motors, or simply small fans of row rating.
A photomultiplier tube is an extremely sensitive light detector that can resolve single photons. It works by multiplying the small current produced by incident light up to 108 times through a process called secondary emission using a photocathode, dynodes, and anode. This allows even tiny and normally undetectable currents to become much larger and measurable. Compared to a phototube, a photomultiplier tube multiplies the electrons emitted from the photocathode, providing much higher gain and allowing it to be used for very low light signals. Photomultiplier tubes cost between $175-300 depending on their specifications and are used in applications requiring high sensitivity light detection.
Nuclear batteries use the incredible amount of energy released naturally by tiny bits of radio active material without any fission or fusion taking place inside the battery. These devices use thin radioactive films that pack in energy at densities thousands of times greater than those of lithium-ion batteries. Because of the high energy density nuclear batteries are extremely small in size. Considering the small size and shape of the battery the scientists who developed that battery fancifully call it as "DAINTIEST DYNAMO". The word 'dainty' means pretty.
The document provides an overview of nuclear batteries, including their historical development, energy production mechanisms, fuels, advantages, drawbacks, and applications. Nuclear batteries harness energy from radioactive decay through thermoelectric generators or betavoltaics to provide a long-lasting compact power source. They have potential applications in space, medical devices, mobile electronics, transportation, military equipment, and underwater sensors due to their longevity, safety, and lack of emissions. However, their initial production costs are high and existing regulations may limit their usage and disposal.

This seminar presentation discusses nuclear batteries as a portable energy source. It covers why nuclear batteries are needed due to limitations of chemical batteries and other power sources. The presentation provides a brief history of nuclear batteries and defines key terms. It describes the energy production mechanisms of betavoltaics and direct charging generators. The presentation discusses considerations for nuclear fuel selection and applications of nuclear batteries in space, medical, mobile and underwater uses. It outlines advantages such as long lifespan and reduced waste, as well as challenges including high production costs and regulatory issues.
Nuclear batteries offer a compact, lightweight, and self-contained power source that can last for decades without needing replacement like chemical batteries. They generate electricity through the emissions from radioactive isotopes without relying on nuclear reactions, avoiding radioactive waste. Betavoltaics uses the energy from beta particles emitted by a radioactive gas to generate electron-hole pairs in silicon, producing an electric current. Direct charging generators sustain oscillations in an LC circuit through energy absorbed from alpha particles decaying in the circuit's core, delivering excess energy to a load. While nuclear batteries have applications in space, medical devices, mobile electronics, and sensors, their high initial cost and need to meet radiation safety standards must first be addressed.
The document describes nuclear batteries, which harvest energy from radioactive materials to power microelectromechanical systems. Nuclear batteries use isotopes like alpha and low-energy beta emitters as fuel. The energy comes from high-energy particles emitted during radioactive decay, without requiring nuclear fission or fusion. Due to their high energy density, nuclear batteries can be extremely small. One type under development is called a "dainty dynamo" due to its small size and shape.
Nuclear batteries generate electricity through the decay of radioactive isotopes without using nuclear fission. They have long lifespans ranging from decades and are used to power remote and unmanned equipment such as spacecraft, pacemakers, and scientific stations. Nuclear batteries convert radioactive energy into electricity through either thermal or non-thermal methods. Thermal methods include thermionic converters and radioisotope thermoelectric generators, while non-thermal methods include betavoltaic and alphavoltaic cells. While nuclear batteries provide reliable, compact power, their development and use faces challenges associated with the high costs and regulations surrounding radioactive materials.
The document summarizes an experiment investigating the photoacoustic effect. The experiment tested whether different wavelengths of visible light produce sound when hitting a photovoltaic cell connected to a speaker. As hypothesized, all wavelengths produced sound but ultraviolet light produced the loudest sound, having the highest energy. The conclusion was that higher energy light produces greater decibel levels of sound through the photoacoustic effect.
In this presentation, I have talked about how carbon-dioxide emission by human activities is responsible for climate change and it can affect our planet. I have also talked about how Earth has a natural thermostat for maintaining its temperature and how life on Earth has survived through those temperature variations.In the end, I have talked about how new emerging technology in power electronics can help to mitigate the problem
Nuclear batteries generate electricity from radioactive decay without a chain reaction. They have lifespans of decades and are over 200 times more efficient than lithium batteries.

UVV oxidizing ultraviolet light uses wavelengths of 187nm to produce activated oxygen atoms that react with chemicals, odors, and VOCs, degrading them through successive oxidation into odorless and harmless byproducts. ASHRAE has expanded knowledge of ultraviolet light applications over time through research projects, technical groups, and chapters in its handbooks on ultraviolet air and surface treatment and ultraviolet lamp systems. Improving indoor air quality can utilize ultraviolet light to destroy biocontaminants and eliminate odors through irradiating indoor air and surfaces like heating and cooling coils.
UV treatment uses ultraviolet light to kill microorganisms by disrupting their DNA. It has been used for water treatment since the early 1900s. A typical UV system consists of a UV lamp, quartz sleeve, reactor chamber, and ballast. Pretreatment is required to remove solids that could shield microorganisms from the UV light. Effectiveness depends on hydraulic properties, UV intensity, and water characteristics. Proper maintenance like cleaning the quartz sleeve and replacing lamps is necessary to ensure sufficient UV radiation.

Optimal Generation of 254nm ultraviolet radiationIOSR Journals
Abstract: The science of the application of 254nm UV from mercury doped glow discharge tubes has been a major topic since Johann Ritter discovered UV via its chemical inducing reactions in 1801 and Niels Finsen’s 1860 work on UV therapy in treating rickets. In 1857 Siemens AG patented UV254nm creation via filamentary discharge, subsequently widely used for ozone production. By 1932 the Coblentz Congress had defined the three regions of the UV action spectrum. This paper presents the science of a new design for a sterilizer module fabricated from extruded, recycled aluminium. This novel design achieves better than D10 performance using six UV tubes per module driven by three electronic ballasts drawing a total current of only 1.26 amps at 240V single phase. This module delivers more than 45,000 microwatts per square centimetre of 254nm UV which sterilises one litre per second in a module with a dwell time of 1.6 seconds in a design with less than 0.5 bar pressure drop across each module. This system takes the electrical efficiency of 254 UV generation from less than 25% to more than 92% as measured by an NPL-traceable calibration against a current industry standard. Since 254nm UV generating tubes are also the basis of fluorescent lighting this new work on optimising the generation of 254nm UV also has application worldwide to improved efficiency of fluorescent tube electrical lighting, because we have shown that most of the fluorescent lamps operating today (particularly the T8 1” diameter) are running at less than 25% efficiency as opposed to the over 92% which is possible with the methods we describe. The work reported here shows that the Townsend equation for electron transport in glow discharge plasmas is not adequate since it does not address either plasma diameter or plasma drive frequency both of which fundamentally alter the electron energy transfer efficiencies to mercury atoms in the plasma.

Solar photovoltaics convert light energy from the sun into electricity through photovoltaic cells. PV cells consist of layers of semiconducting materials that produce electricity when struck by sunlight. The electricity is produced as electrons are freed from the semiconducting material by photons, causing them to flow and produce an electric current. There are different types of PV cells including monocrystalline, polycrystalline, and thin film technologies that have varying efficiencies and costs. The cells are connected together in modules and arrays to produce usable voltages and powers for applications like charging batteries and powering electronics.
Microwave ovens work by using electromagnetic waves to heat up water molecules in food. A device called a magnetron generates microwaves at 2.45 GHz, which cause the water molecules in food to vibrate, generating heat. The microwaves are reflected inside the oven and cause uniform heating. While microwaves are a form of non-ionizing radiation and do not damage DNA, exposure should be limited as high amounts can cause thermal damage to sensitive organs. Safety standards limit leakage to safe levels and proper maintenance is important for safe operation.
