14-year-olds Duro-Aina Adebola, Akindele
Abiola, Faleke Oluwatoyin, and 15-year-old Bello Eniola have created a urine power generator
All over Africa, young men and women have
missioned across the country and arrived in Lagos, Nigeria. All they
want to do is show off what they have made. Maker Faire Africa
is more than your typical startup event: it actually shows off
innovations, inventions, and initiatives that solve immediate challenges
and problems, and then works to support and propagate them. Put another
way, this isn’t just a bunch of rich people talking about how their
apps are going to change the world.
These four girls may not end up doing that either, but their efforts
definitely stand more of a chance than yet another hyper local social cloud
app. Their efforts should not go unnoticed, because if this is what
they’re doing as teenagers, I really hope they have the funding they
need to be revolutionizing lives when they’re adults.
Here’s how it works:
- Urine is put into an electrolytic cell, which cracks the urea into nitrogen, water, and hydrogen.
- The hydrogen goes into a water filter for purification, which then gets pushed into the gas cylinder.
- The gas cylinder pushes hydrogen into a cylinder of liquid borax, which is used to remove the moisture from the hydrogen gas.
- This purified hydrogen gas is pushed into the generator.
- 1 Liter of urine gives you 6 hours of electricity.
