🧠 Problem Title: Eco-Friendly System to Convert Dry Waste into Electricity with Pollution Control and Carbon Recycling. Waste management.
📝 Problem Description

In daily life, a large amount of dry waste such as paper, cardboard, plastic packaging, and household waste is either dumped in open areas or burned openly. Open dumping leads to animals like cows, dogs, and other animals consuming harmful waste, which can cause illness or death. On the other hand, open burning of dry waste releases toxic gases such as carbon monoxide, dioxins, and particulate matter, which contribute significantly to air pollution and harm human health., To address this issue, my project presents an eco-friendly and innovative solution that converts dry waste into useful electricity while minimizing pollution. In this system, dry waste is burned inside a controlled closed chamber instead of open burning, which helps reduce the release of harmful gases into the environment., The heat energy produced from burning waste is converted into electrical energy using a thermoelectric generator. The generated electricity is then stored and can be used to power small devices like bulbs., Additionally, the smoke produced during burning is passed through an absorber and filtration system that removes harmful particles and pollutants. The collected carbon particles (soot) can be reused to make eco-friendly ink and paints, promoting recycling and sustainability., This project not only reduces pollution but also converts waste into a valuable resource, helping in energy generation, environmental protection, and better waste management.
