Abstract

ABSTRACT In recent years, low power consumption and portable devices have been developed that will be connected and used everywhere. However, this explosion will bring critical challenges to electricity consumption. In this work, copper and zinc electrodes are embedded in prickly pear plant as an electricity generation has been analysed and evaluated. Many experimental setups have been performed to determine the optimum method to collect the maximum amount of energy from the living plant. They study the influence of distance between electrodes, influence of the electrode’s size, influence of the electrode’s depth, effect of the couple electrodes number, and effect of series and parallel connection to harvested energy. Therefore, a combination of series and parallel connection among the leaves can be installed to harvest higher voltage and current. The experimental results show that 58,8 mW electrical power can be harvested using 18 pairs of electrodes embedded in 6 leaves. The produced energy is used to power up low-power devices such as a calculator or a light emitting diode (LED) and can be stored in a capacitor or a battery.

刺梨活体植物生产可再生绿色能源
近年来,低功耗和便携式设备的发展,将连接和使用无处不在。然而,这种爆炸将给电力消费带来严峻的挑战。在这项工作中,铜和锌电极嵌入刺梨植物作为发电进行了分析和评估。为了确定从活植物中收集最大能量的最佳方法,已经进行了许多实验设置。他们研究了电极之间距离的影响、电极尺寸的影响、电极深度的影响、对电极数量的影响以及串联和并联对收集能量的影响。因此,可以在叶片之间安装串并联组合,以获得更高的电压和电流。实验结果表明,在6片叶子中嵌入18对电极,可以收获58.8兆瓦的电力。所产生的能量用于为低功耗设备供电,如计算器或发光二极管(LED),并可以存储在电容器或电池中。
