Project Name : Eradication through Utilization
Theme Name : Environmental Issue and Concerns
Objective of our project is to identify the various means of eradication of water hyacinth through utilization and to utilize it for bio-energy. Water hyacinth can be eradicated due to its increased multiplication rate, it can be used to generate bio-fuel by photo catalysis and
also by two step anaerobic fermentation to produce hydrogen and methane. The bio-fuel obtained by the above two process is utilized by feeding it as direct fuel cell and for generating electricity. It can also be used to produce bio-char which absorbs thereby reducing global warming. Water hyacinth can absorb heavy metals from water and it can reduce water pollution so it can be utilized effectively.
