Power plant never start work, the tire don less. Even rims dey contribute to support....

ubiquitousade:


your are correct, it could be an invention but it is not needed cos it will cause much more problem

Well for you, it is not needed because you assume that we will always have petrol, diesel and Electricity to run our modern gadgets and equipment.

Do you always have Petrol, diesel and Electricity?
Does Nigeria always have petrol, diesel and Electricity?

That question is hard for me to answer O.

true some of those things are not readily available but there are better eco-friendly alternative to using sawdust (trees) like solar, wind,

WHO IS D LECTURER THAT TAUGHT HIM DAT NONSENSE. USE SAWDUST TO GENERATE HEAT ENERGY WHICH BURNS WATER THAT PRODUCES STEAM, D STEAM PRODUCES ENERGY THAT DRIVES A TURBINE AND D TURBINE DRIVES AN ALTERNATOR AND DEN POWER IS PRODUCED..... WAT A WASTE........
QUESTION:::::::::::: IS SAWDUST A RENEWABLE SOURCE OF ENERGY??
ATTENTION IS NOW SHIFTED TO RENEWABLE SOURCE OF ENERGY AND NOT D ODA WAY ROUND.............
MECHANICAL ENGINEERING IN DS COUNTRY IS A TOTAL WASTE..........PERIOD...........

Saw dust comes from wood, wood comes from trees hewn down, hewn down trees is not good for the ecosystem. So literally we need more sawdust to fire this steam power plant and the cycle continues..

Even if am not an engineer, I know that most top industrialized nations got their support from government. Japan and China are very good examples. India is even joining the trend too little did I wonder why most us go there for treatment
Do u know how much the presidency gives to university for research every year??

is it only university that does research?
Are there no other schools that are into practicals?
Why will an ordinary school sat from China head a top construction business in Nigeria?

The main problem is research and theory... practical is not a problem that's what people don't get

Impressive for only those who have never seen or made use of a boiler before. Nonsense. Boilers can be fired even with empty palm fruit bunches.

TRUST NIGERIA, WHAT EVER YOU INVENT OR CREATE WILL BE DUMPED IN THE DUMPYARD NOT TOO FAR FROM YOUR OWN WORKSHOP EVEN BEFORE YOUR PARENTS SEE IT. undecided

OUR SCIENCE STUDENTS ARE JUST WASTING THEIR TIME ON PROJECTS IN THIS COUNTRY, NO BODY CARES ABOUT YOUR BLOODY INVENTION... JUST VOTE IN THE POLITICIANS WHILE WE CONTINUE TO BE BACKWARD.

Exactly!!! This machine was dumped exactly where you see it in the picture...I walk past it everyday and ask my friends why the school can't use it to power the whole school or at least School of Engineering only...The Nigerian politics in every aspect of life is just toooo fvcked

amazing!!!
THOUGH I DON'T KNOW THE INTERNAL DESIGNS...

THE ENORMOUS EXHAUST GASES CAN STILL BE WELL UTILIZED IN SO MANY WAYS AS TO ENHACE EFFICIENCY etc

... AND MAYBE A MINI HIGH EFFICIENCY CYCLONE or something of such CAN BE INCOPORATED TO REDUCE OR ELIMINATE THE HARMFUL EFFECTS OF THE EXHAUST GASES TO THE ENVIRONMENT!!

THUMBS UP BRO!!
























































though this is still Nigeria!!!

Until Nigerians are will to hold their leaders to account; until political leaders understand that they are public servants and have no choice but to work in the best interests of the people; until they fear for their lives, then this will keep happening.

Saw dust is a biomass, therefore, it is a renewable source of energy. This is because trees are now planted to grow into forests just the way crops are planted.

sawdust is semi-renewable.....don't u know how long it is to grow a tree that can produce sawdust. such trees take at least 5-10years to grow and yet u call DAT renewable. FYI, renewable sources include
solar energy & compost wch produces natural gas and so on.....
any energy source that takes more than a month to be renewed is almost nonrenewable

You Will Never Have To Buy A New Battery Again!

If u'really really serious about this, listen. You are going to make a lot of money from this. Bringing completely dead batteries back to life again! Car batteries, Laptop batteries, Trailer batteries ( for Inverter and solar panel, considering the problem of electricity in naija), Radio Batteries, Rechargable Batteries....lots more. I thought it was a joke, but it's real!

And you know what? Anybody can learn! Even if you are not a Technology kind of person....it's very easy.

Send me ur contact....or WhatsApp 08067115436, to get a video that explains it all!

This is so amazing, what do you think?
Re: Zakari Abubakar Creates A Steam Power Plant That Uses Sawdust To Fire Boiler by Degovmob: 2:03pm On Jul 15, 2016
Semi-renewable energy indeed, I wonder who taught you in school. Please, use your Google, it will help you. Internet is not just about social networks. Is sawdust a biomass or not? Are trees referred to as plants or not?

That you don't know that trees are referred as sources of renewable energy doesn't make them non-renewable. Canada is a good example of countries that depend on wood chips and pellets as their source of renewable energy.

Who the hell taught you about renewable energy?

He can as well use Coal that has low carbon content to fire the boiler...a nice project,if l may say...kudos bro

It is easier and cheaper to gather sawdust from saw mills along the roadside than to organize diggers and excavators with with government licence to dig up coal from some trench 100s of Kilometers away in any given direction.

Dude is using economic sense.
