Solar Powered Brick Kiln
Project Area of Specialization Electrical/Electronic EngineeringProject SummaryWe are trying to make the bricks (from clay) using solar energy. In this process we are using solar plate as a source of energy, and 2nd one temperature controller with datalogger for temperature maintenance and last one heating element for temperature achievement.
Project ObjectivesFollowing are the objective of Project:
-
It's environment friendly (pollution free)
-
Energy Efficient
and it will be used for
- firing, drying, baking, hardening, or burning a substance, particularly clay products but originally also grain and meal.
- The brick kiln was a major advance in ancient technology because it provided a stronger brick than the primitive sun-dried product.
It involves
- Set of Solar Plate (for source of Electricity/Energy)
- Controller Circuit
- Kiln Room (Arrange with Heating element)
Following are the benefits:
- One of the biggest advantages of using that kiln is that it is much faster to heat up and cool down
- Energy Efficient
- Pollution free
- Process Efficient
- It can be run throughout the year
- Low maintenance cost
- No Running charges
Technical Details of Final Deliverable
- Product will be AC and DC operatable
- Gradually temperature achievement
- Temperature Range from 0-1000 degree centigrade
