A microbial fuel cell is a device that converts chemical energy to electrical energy by the catalytic reaction of microorganisms.it was made up of anode and cathode compartments separated by a positively charged membrane. In the anode compartment, fuel is oxidized by microorganisms, generating CO 2 , electrons and protons. Electrons are transferred to the cathode compartment through an external electric circuit, while protons are transferred to the cathode compartment through the membrane. Electrons and protons are consumed in the cathode compartment, combining with oxygen to form water. Main purpose is to generate electricity by imitating processes of microorganisms. 2.Wirelessly controlled vehicle with a robotic arm The vehicle mainly had an antenna,a camera,two motors and a microchip.it was controlled by sending signals. The remote had some basic functions like forward backward,right left,close arm and open arm.it worked mainly because of the programmable microchips and the waves used to tranmit the signal.main purpose is to lift heavy paper rolls in the paper industry to replace manual labour. 3.Safety car using electromagnetics Perhaps very complicated,yet it is very useful technology which can be used to prevent accidents at obtuse corners on the hills and the high to very high speed corners.the basic is the car sends signals to detect the distance to go for the corners ,generate data about maximum safe speed and the current speed of car.if the car is at a greater pace it stops by braking heavily using electromagnetic brakes. 4. generating electricity from gases some gases are evolved after treatment of organic wastes.The gases which are not required are settled down using the filters.The useful gases are passed through a mechanism .this mechanism uses this gas to produce electricity.Main purpose is to setup this type of mechanism in large number so that each plant produces enough electricity to feed the needs of its nearby areas. 5.Lighting bulbs from wastes The organic wastes are decomposed.When they are decoposed,they produce the gases which are passed through a mechanism. This mechanism processed the gases to generate electricity which is further used to light the bulbs.Only lighting the bulb as its purpose sounds absurd.Perhaps the mechanism need much more improvement to generate far more electricity so thet it can be used in other activities rather than just lighting bulb.
6.Sewage Treatment plant The whole set up is present underground.The sewage from the houses in a locality are collected and are treated .on treatment they produce gases.however,only methane isfiltered out and is used for domestic purpose.as methane has a high calorific value ,it is used as cooking fuel in households.
