Background of the Invention

Among various energy sources, the need for green and clean energy is inevitable given the increasing level of greenhouse gas emissions and depleting conventional resources such as coal and oil. The use of renewable energy technologies helps decrease greenhouse gas emissions and all of the other pollutants they put in the atmosphere, leaving a positive impact on the environment and human health.

Problem Statement

One of the most significant advantages offloading thermal modules is that the installations don't require any landscape.  In many countries like Japan and Singapore, the land resource is scarce. A premium cost is attached for even a tiny piece of land. The land can be utilized for several better commercial purposes.

Similarly, for developing nations like India and many Asian countries, where most of the land is fertile and is used for agricultural purposes, it is difficult to spare a substantial land area except for few pockets of unproductive land for purposes like thermal power generation.

The Thermal Floater can take unused space on bodies of water, such as hydroelectric dam reservoirs, wastewater treatment ponds, or drinking water reservoirs. This will allow the landowners to use an area that wouldn't otherwise be used.

In addition to that, the long coastline of developing countries such as India, China, and African nations offer a vast possibility of installing such floating thermal platforms that can address the problem of land availability for harvesting thermal energy from the sun and can generate a huge amount of power to meet the growing energy demand.

Benefits

It is a known fact that there are some significant environmental benefits when it comes to renewable energy, and floating thermal modules certainly will play a role in contributing to the ecological benefits.

Water Shades

With floating thermal module installations, the water doesn't only have a cooling effect on the solar-thermal-powered systems, but it works the other way as well. The floating thermal module installation provides shade to the body of water

BUILD

It reduces the evaporation from these ponds, reservoirs, and lakes. This is an excellent environmental benefit of solar-thermal energy in areas that are more susceptible to droughts, as water loss due to evaporation can add up over time and contribute to a shortage

OPTIMIZE

The shade that the floating thermal modules produce can help reduce algae that bloom in the freshwater. The algae can be a little dangerous for human health if they occur in a source of drinking water, and it can also lead to the death of plants and animals that live in the water

The Thermal Floater is a clean source of renewable energy. The use of renewable energy technologies helps decrease greenhouse gas emissions and all of the other pollutants that they put in the atmosphere, leaving a positive impact on the environment and human health.

The product would appeal to targeted customers, the power utilities, governments, institutions, and private developers. It can also be quite useful for generating electricity in remote parts/military bases/ research bases in islands where delivering electricity is highly expensive and producing electricity locally can have detrimental effects on the environment.

Brief Working

The floating thermal module consists of hollow rubber casing float on the surface and the light from the Sun is captured using a Fresnel lens of appropriate focal length which converges the light rays onto a copper hotplate.

It further conducts the heat down to the thermal paste that act as a thermal compound for the Thermoelectric Peltier and is separated by mineral wool to redirect the heat towards the Peltier which is connected up to a heatsink that dissipates the heat to the water bodies and can produce upto 10kWh per day.
