Karachi: Students from Sir Syed University for Engineering and Technology has developed an innovative way to produce electricity from bio-fuel.

The group from Electronics Department has invented a cheaper way as compared to other procedures for power generation through bio bass or Methane Gas, Daily Nai Baat reports.

“The prevalent power crisis has compelled us to produce power from Methane gas using dung of livestock,” says Shazia, the team leader of the group.

“We have broken down organic material of dung into Fatty Acid, Amino Acid, fats and Carbohydrate and then separated oxygen from it,” she added.

Shazia says Methane gas is used to boil water in the power generation boiler which ultimately turn Thermal energy into mechanical energy.

“The mechanical energy is then can be used for generating electricty,” excited team lead said.

“About 96 volt direct current can be obtained through electricity generated by bio fuel.”

Shazia accompanied by her team fellows Sunbal Mubashar, Hasnain Ansari, Faheem Sheikh, Tariq Khaurshidi and Sharjeel Bashir.
