What we Learnt Average of 12.4 kw/day of air con usage in homes. (Panasonic CS-S12NKZW

Econavi).

48 liters of grey water being wasted per day per apartment.. (based on the 2 liter flow rate provided by PUB.)

In all applications, there will always be a percentage of energy that is always wasted.

We decided against focusing our project on changing people’s habits but rather adapting technologies to reduce wastage from everyday habits or lifestyle.

Adapting Technologies

Areas identified

Waste FoodWaste Heat Waste Water

Precedents

Senoko power plant

COMBINED CYCLE PLANT~Conventional Gas Turbine Thermal Efficiency: 25~30%

-Combined Cycle plant efficiency- 40- 50%.

Biogas Digester

Rainwater and greywater harvesting

Eco Architecture merge with farming

Solaris Building at Fusionopolis

Artichoke Café In Bugis

Proposed Solutions

Microturbines

Rainwater falls through pipes, turning microturbines in the process

As it flows downwards due to gravity, it will turn turbines to generate electricity to power lights.

Sledges to be inserted on HDB walls to collect rainwater which will drip into the pipe.

After which this water would flow into a storage container to be used for ie drip water irrigation.

Organic Food Waste

Catalytic Decomposition to produce methane

• Implemented in the kitchen

• Will be roughly the size of a dustbin. When connected to the gas stove, it could be used for cooking purposes, eliminating the need for electricity.

Organic methane

Biofuel DigesterStudents will throw their waste after eating

Timeline

Brainstorming to come up with viable ideas

Prototyping Creating site models and prototypes

Experimentation Interacting with our prototypes and observations.

FeedbackHaving people use them and getting back feedback for the design of our products

Improvisation Looking at the flaws of our design and coming up with ways to improve them

Checklistto combine everything for a HDB flat

What are some of the parts in each idea that is compatible with one another?

How would electricity be harnessed from the biogas generators?

What are the materials we can use to make it as cost efficient as possible?

What are the different ways in which we can channel the generated energy?
