Aeroponics Food System Pilot
Aeroponics is a modern cultivation technique that develops plants in an aerial environment. By combining the system with a solar-powered micro-controller and rechargeable batteries the plant roots can be continuously supplied with the right amount of moisture and nutrients for plant growth. This labour-saving system is designed for populations with low water resources and a high concentration of solar radiation, and is considered an efficient, ecological and safe cultivation technique for food production.
The project involved a number of technical challenges which Nico was able to successfully trouble-shoot to make the system operational. A variety of seeds were tested in the aeroponic system and all successfully germinated and reached full maturity. With the successful completion of this pilot-scale project and the development of an accompanying manual, the system is ready to be tested on a larger scale by a future aspiring EcoSwell volunteer in a larger community setting.
Dinamic modelling of a batch reactor heating system and Design of a temperature controller based on Arduino
FiBiod is a project about the utilisation of biofuels for fishing boats in cold climates. Pure Biodiesel is cheaper, safer and less polluting than conventional fuels but it has also a big challenge to solve. In cold climates the viscosity of the bio fuel reaches an unpleasant high value, causing damage to tanks, pipes, pumps and of course the engine. Our task is to find and develop an energy-efficient solution, so fishermen will be able to use biodiesel in low temperatures.
