New Delhi: Saving energy is a practice that is stressed upon time and again, with scientists coming up with various ways and means to do it.
Now, scientists have found a way to generate electricity out of something that comes in use in the toilet – toilet paper.
This will not just help conserve energy, but also be a boon for the environment.
In a study published in the journal Energy Technology, they presented the basic system design, as well as its electricity yield and overall efficiency, based on detailed mass and energy balance calculations.
The overall electric efficiency is 57 per cent, similar to that of a natural gas combined cycle plant.
The levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) - a measure used for consistent comparison of electricity generation methods - is comparable at present to residential photovoltaic installations.
The system's capital costs are still relatively high, mainly due to the fuel cell investment costs. However, these are expected to decrease as the market for fuel cells develops.
The operating costs are relatively low, partly thanks to the high thermodynamic efficiency.
