2. INTRODUCTION
• In our country there is too much short fall of electricity and we try to
overcome this problem by using Non-Conventional source of electricity.
• In all over world Power Demand increase at a stretch to the peak.
• As a solution they introduce Fossil Fuels, Renewable Energy came in use
to solve this issue.
• Nothing is really a waste in the real sense of the word, Almost anything
one can think of is reusable.

3. OBJECTIVES
• To overcome the power demand in public places such as shopping malls,
railway station, public toilets etc.,
• Human excreta is the nature hidden fuel which gets electrolysed for
hydrogen gas.
• To get rid of carbon-monoxide, so this ensure clean environment for
people.
• It could be applied to vehicles, Gasoline-powered internal combustion
engines can be converted relatively easily to run on hydrogen

4. ABSTRACT
• Since excreta is produced every where, and a lot of it too humans alone
are estimated to produce 6.4 trillion liters a year this idea has a strong
local flavor.
• Here in this topic the main fuel is excreta. Generally the excreta has
majorly water in addition to other chemicals like ammonia, sulphate ,
uric acid, urea etc.
• Since this hydrogen gas is passed through the petrol generator,which
generates electricity.
• Which generates 6hours of electricity from one litre of fuel when
compared to other fuel generator.

5. PROJECT GOALS
• To make low/free cost of fuel.
• To avoid evolution of greenhouse gases.
• Attain pollution free equipment.
• To reduce Maintenance cost.
• To be an eco-friendly product.
• Releasing gas is nontoxic with the nature.

First set of analysis is
MFC’s could be used
for remote sustainable
region and results in
energy generation
from waste.
It is an extremely

14. PROJECT’S APPRECIATIONS

15. ADVANTAGES
• The fuel is free of cost.
• There is no evolution of greenhouse gases.
• It is pollution free equipment.
• Maintenance cost is very low.
• It is an eco-friendly product.
• It is nontoxic with the nature.
• It generates more electricity when compared to other generators by
consuming less amount of fuel.

16. DISADVANTAGES
• It needs frequent maintenance and proper setup, with air tight fit
• This technology requires a skilled maintenance.
• Its highly flammable and generator inlet needs proper safety measures.

17. CONCLUSION
• In present and future generation, this is the best way to produce power
from this type of urine powered generator. The source of urine is
naturally available from human being so there is availability of
hydrogen easily.
• Using an electrolytic approach to produce hydrogen from urine is the
most abundant waste on earth, is going to be a fuel in future.
• It produces much electricity compared with other types of power plants
(effectively) and mainly the waste Urea is used (it is free of cost).
