Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity through the photovoltaic effect. When sunlight hits a solar cell, photons are absorbed and dislodge electrons, generating a flow of electricity. Solar cells are combined into modules which are assembled into larger solar arrays to increase power output for applications. The key components of a solar panel include photovoltaic cells, interconnecting wiring, a mounting frame, and a junction box.
Solar panels harness the photoelectric effect to produce electricity from sunlight. Thousands of photovoltaic cells made primarily of silicon, along with additives like phosphorus, are connected together in solar panels to convert light into direct current electricity. While solar energy is one of the most abundant renewable resources, solar panels do not generate power at night without sunlight, but batteries can store excess energy from daylight hours for use when the sun is down.
A solar cell converts sunlight directly into electricity through the photovoltaic effect. It is constructed from layers of semiconductor materials, usually silicon, with a positive and negative type. When light photons are absorbed, they create electron-hole pairs which generate an electric current across the positive-negative junction. Solar cells can be connected together in solar panels or modules to increase the voltage and power output for practical applications. The most efficient solar cells are made from monocrystalline silicon but polycrystalline and amorphous silicon types are also used.
Solar panels harness the photoelectric effect to produce electricity from sunlight. Thousands of photovoltaic cells, often made from silicon, are connected together in solar panels. The silicon allows electrons to move freely through the panels and produce a current when struck by photons from sunlight. This direct current is then converted to alternating current electricity. While solar panels provide a renewable source of energy from the sun, they do not work at night without sunlight. However, solar batteries can store excess energy from the panels to provide power when needed.
A solar cell converts sunlight directly into electricity through the photovoltaic effect. It is made of semiconducting materials, usually silicon, that absorb photons from sunlight and release electrons. When p-type and n-type silicon are joined, a p-n junction is formed. Electrons flow from the n-type to the p-type material, generating a voltage. Monocrystalline silicon cells have the highest efficiency around 14-17%, while polycrystalline and amorphous cells have lower efficiencies of 13-15% and 5-7%, respectively. Solar cells are connected together in solar panels or modules to provide usable amounts of electricity for applications like powering homes and buildings.

Solar energy works by converting sunlight into electricity through solar panels. Solar panels contain photovoltaic solar cells made of silicon that generate electricity when struck by photons from sunlight. The photons are absorbed by the solar cells, causing electrons to become free and move towards the bottom of the cell, exiting through connecting wires. This flow of electrons produces electricity. Some key benefits of solar energy are that it is renewable, clean and does not pollute the environment or emit greenhouse gases. However, solar energy also has drawbacks in that it can be expensive and requires a large amount of space.
Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity through a process involving silicon semiconductor materials. When silicon is exposed to sunlight, photons free electrons that can be manipulated to flow as direct current. The solar cells use doped silicon to create an electric field that pushes electrons from the n-type to the p-type region, generating a current. An inverter is then used to convert the direct current into alternating current that can power homes and offices. Solar energy is a renewable and clean energy source that has potential to be cost-effective in countries that receive intense sunlight like Sri Lanka.
This document discusses the history and chemistry of solar panels. It outlines that the first solar collector was created in 1767, but solar power did not take off until the late 1800s and early 1900s with discoveries like the photoelectric effect by Einstein. Solar panels work through the photoelectric effect - photons hit silicon semiconductor particles, ejecting electrons to create an electric current. Silicon is commonly used in solar cells due to its crystalline structure. The document then gives examples of solar power applications like solar powered homes and the International Space Station.
The document summarizes the history and development of solar photovoltaic cells. It describes how the photovoltaic effect was first observed in 1839 when light was found to produce an electric current in a silver-coated electrode. The first solid-state photovoltaic devices used selenium in 1876. In 1954, the first silicon solar cell was created with a efficiency of 6% by converting sunlight into electricity. Research and development increased in the 1970s during the energy crisis to improve efficiency and lower the cost of solar cells using materials like polycrystalline silicon, amorphous silicon and thin films.

Solar panels work through the photoelectric effect. When light hits the semiconductors in solar panels, photons eject electrons, creating an electric current. Silicon is commonly used as the semiconductor because its crystalline structure and electron configuration make it susceptible to generating free electrons when struck by photons. Impurities added to the silicon help make its electrons more easily dislodged. The electric current produced can then be used as an electric power source for applications such as powering homes, the International Space Station, and solar-powered vehicles.

This document discusses solar energy and photovoltaics. It begins by defining solar energy as radiation from the sun, noting its advantages as a renewable resource. It then describes how solar energy can be used to heat living spaces and water. The remainder focuses on photovoltaics, explaining how solar cells work by converting light to electricity using the photovoltaic effect in semiconductor materials like silicon. Doping silicon creates excess electrons or holes that allow current to flow when a p-n junction is formed between n-type and p-type materials.

Kinetic studies on malachite green dye adsorption from aqueous solutions by A...Open Access Research Paper
Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.
Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...Joshua Orris
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.
Climate Change All over the World .pptxsairaanwer024
Climate change refers to significant and lasting changes in the average weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It encompasses both global warming driven by human emissions of greenhouse gases and the resulting large-scale shifts in weather patterns. While climate change is a natural phenomenon, human activities, particularly since the Industrial Revolution, have accelerated its pace and intensity
Recycling and Disposal on SWM Raymond Einyu pptxRayLetai1
Increasing urbanization, rural–urban migration, rising standards of living, and rapid development associated with population growth have resulted in increased solid waste generation by industrial, domestic and other activities in Nairobi City. It has been noted in other contexts too that increasing population, changing consumption patterns, economic development, changing income, urbanization and industrialization all contribute to the increased generation of waste.
With the increasing urban population in Kenya, which is estimated to be growing at a rate higher than that of the country’s general population, waste generation and management is already a major challenge. The industrialization and urbanization process in the country, dominated by one major city – Nairobi, which has around four times the population of the next largest urban centre (Mombasa) – has witnessed an exponential increase in the generation of solid waste. It is projected that by 2030, about 50 per cent of the Kenyan population will be urban.
Aim:
A healthy, safe, secure and sustainable solid waste management system fit for a world – class city.
Improve and protect the public health of Nairobi residents and visitors.
Ecological health, diversity and productivity and maximize resource recovery through the participatory approach.
Goals:
Build awareness and capacity for source separation as essential components of sustainable waste management.
Build new environmentally sound infrastructure and systems for safe disposal of residual waste and replacing current dumpsites which should be commissioned.
Current solid waste management situation:
The status.
Solid waste generation rate is at 2240 tones / day
collection efficiently is at about 50%.
Actors i.e. city authorities, CBO’s , private firms and self-disposal
Current SWM Situation in Nairobi City:
Solid waste generation – collection – dumping
Good Practices:
• Separation – recycling – marketing.
• Open dumpsite dandora dump site through public education on source separation of waste, of which the situation can be reversed.
• Nairobi is one of the C40 cities in this respect , various actors in the solid waste management space have adopted a variety of technologies to reduce short lived climate pollutants including source separation , recycling , marketing of the recycled products.
• Through the network, it should expect to benefit from expertise of the different actors in the network in terms of applicable technologies and practices in reducing the short-lived climate pollutants.
Good practices:
Despite the dismal collection of solid waste in Nairobi city, there are practices and activities of informal actors (CBOs, CBO-SACCOs and yard shop operators) and other formal industrial actors on solid waste collection, recycling and waste reduction.
Practices and activities of these actor groups are viewed as innovations with the potential to change the way solid waste is handled.
CHALLENGES:
• Resource Allocation.
Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.
2. First… A Brief Introduction
About The Sun
Generates it’s energy through nuclear fusion
Needed to make the earth function:
-Photosynthesis for plants
-Provides solar energy
-Evaporation > Rain
-MUCH MORE
6. The Atmosphere
Solar radiation first hits the
atmosphere in this layer and ionizes
air molecules. A region of ionized
particles in the thermosphere is called
the ionosphere. Auroras, which are
interactions of charged solar particles
and the ionosphere, can be seen in
this layer of the atmosphere.
Temperature is up due to ionization of
air molecules by solar radiation. Air is
extremely thin.
7. Auroras in the
Thermosphere
An aurora is an interaction of the
ionosphere and charged solar
particles within the thermosphere.
9. The Sun’s Energy
We can tell the Sun’s
energy is present…
The radiation/energy off of the sun
heats up pavement, causing you to
see “heat waves”. “Heat waves”
look like water almost, causing
mirages in the desert. For example,
if you saw that watery look ahead in
the desert, you would think there is
water ahead, when it is really only
hot sand
10. The Sun’s Energy
We can tell the Sun’s
energy is present…Radiation/energy from
the sun can also heat
swimming pools.
11. What is Solar Energy?
• Originates with the
thermonuclear
fusion reactions
occurring in the
sun.
• Represents the
entire
electromagnetic
radiation (visible
light, infrared,
ultraviolet, x-rays,
and radio waves).
12. How much solar energy?
The surface receives about 47% of the total solar
energy that reaches the Earth. Only this amount
is usable.
14. How Solar Panels Work
The basic element
of solar panels
is the same
element that
helped create
the computer
revolution --
pure silicon.
15. Direct Conversion into Electricity
• Photovoltaic cells are
capable of directly
converting sunlight into
electricity.
• A simple wafer of silicon
with wires attached to the
layers. Current is produced
based on types of silicon (n-
and p-types) used for the
layers. Each cell=0.5 volts.
• Battery needed as storage
• No moving partsdo no
wear out, but because they
are exposed to the weather,
their lifespan is about 20
years.
16. How Solar Panels Work
When silicon is stripped of all impurities, it makes a ideal
neutral platform for the transmission of electrons. Silicon
also has some atomic-level properties which make it
even more attractive for the creation of solar panels.
Silicon atoms have room for eight electrons in their outer
bands, but only carry four in their natural state. This
means there is room for four more electrons.
17. How Solar Panels Work
If one silicon atom contacts another silicon atom, each
receives the other atom's four electrons. This creates a
strong bond, but there is no positive or negative charge
because the eight electrons satisfy the atoms' needs.
Silicon atoms can combine for years to result in a large
piece of pure silicon. This material is used to form the
plates of solar panels.
18. How Solar Panels Work
Here's where science enters the picture. Two plates of pure silicon
would not generate electricity in solar panels, because they have no
positive or negative charge. Solar panels are created by combining
silicon with other elements that do have positive or negative
charges. Phosphorus, for example, has five electrons to offer to
other atoms. If silicon and phosphorus are combined chemically, the
result is a stable eight electrons with an additional free electron
along for the ride. It can't leave, because it is bonded to the other
phosphorus atoms, but it isn't needed by the silicon. Therefore, this
new silicon/phosphorus plate is considered to be negatively
charged.
19. How Solar Panels Work
In order for electricity to flow, a positive charge must also
be created. This is achieved in solar panels by
combining silicon with an element such as boron, which
only has three electrons to offer. A silicon/boron plate
still has one spot left for another electron. This means
the plate has a positive charge. The two plates are
sandwiched together in solar panels, with conductive
wires running between them.
20. How Solar Panels Work
With the two plates in place, it's now time to bring in the
'solar' aspect of solar panels. Natural sunlight sends out
many different particles of energy, but the one we're
most interested in is called a photon. A photon
essentially acts like a moving hammer. When the
negative plates of solar cells are pointed at a proper
angle to the sun, photons bombard the
silicon/phosphorus atoms.
21. How Solar Panels Work
Eventually, the 9th electron, which wants to
be free anyway, is knocked off the outer
ring. This electron doesn't remain free for
long, since the positive silicon/boron plate
draws it into the open spot on its own
outer band.
