Energy and Transport (inferred)
Renewable energy is a critical field of study, and photosynthetic microbial fuel cells (PMFCs) present a relevant and new area of focus in this field. In PMFCs, electrons produced through an…
Energy: Sustainable Materials and Design
An untapped technology to increase driving range of electric cars is solar cells to provide auxiliary power output. But, the limited power output of conventional silicon panels and their inf…
Energy: Sustainable Materials and Design
Fossil fuels produce 2/3 of the Earth’s greenhouse gases; biofuel reduces these emissions <86%. The U.S. commercially grows 2M acres of canola annually, leaving 25-30 cm of stubble/plant for…
Energy: Sustainable Materials and Design
From year to year, energy and electricity consumption of whole humanity increases and this leads to environmental problems because most sources of energy are exhaustible and non-renewable ex…

Grant Wiarda (John Adams High School) Mentor: Nevin Longenecker ([email protected]) Chaperone: Ann Wiarda ([email protected]) Retrofitting A Direct Methanol Fuel Cell With Tungste…
Energy: Sustainable Materials and Design
Brazilian livestock accounts for 18.6% of the use of the national territory, due to its impact on the current scenario, I propose to use animal manure for the renewable production of electri…
Energy: Sustainable Materials and Design
Initially, solar cells were made from silicon, but it was very expensive to get. Later on, scientists created dye-sensitized solar cells using ruthenium dye which was a pollutant and it was…
Energy: Sustainable Materials and Design
By 2040, the global consumption of energy is expected to increase by 28% from 2017. As the demand for energy increases, the demand for sustainable sources increases. The purpose of this stud…
Energy: Sustainable Materials and Design
The purpose of this project was to increase the efficiency of a solar panel and create a system that uses energy in the most efficient way. It was hypothesized that by putting the solar pane…
Energy and Transport (inferred)
Fossil fuels (coal, oil, gas) play a dominant role in current global energy systems. Fossil fuel energy had been the fundamental driving force for our technological advancements. Although fo…
Energy: Sustainable Materials and Design
The purpose of this investigation is to improve the performance of iron-ion batteries (FIBs) by improving cyclability through composite V2O5 and TiO2 cathodes. FIBs offer a higher specific c…
Energy: Sustainable Materials and Design
The main aim of this project is to develop green power that will be a key enabler in the movement of goods on the increased infrastructure and manufacturing units. I am using energy boosters…
Energy: Sustainable Materials and Design
Since 2013 energy storage research has been focused on supercapacitors (SCs) due to their many advantages over batteries: 1) charge times are exponentially smaller 1-30 second instead of 10-…
Energy: Sustainable Materials and Design
A big problem is climate change. The U.S. uses more than 187.8 trillion pounds of non-renewable natural gas. The U.S. discards renewable products every year including 222.5 billion pounds of…
Energy: Sustainable Materials and Design
This research aims to design a cost-effective add-on to solar cells that allows for the capture of solar ultraviolet light. While scientists have created expensive multijunction panels that…
Energy: Sustainable Materials and Design
Research problem: Some evidence that is presented to prove the personalities of criminals is not sufficient to prove the identity of the criminal and take long periods of time in the search…
Energy: Sustainable Materials and Design
The purpose of the project was to construct an eco-friendly and cost effective alternative for heat exchanger by using naturally occurring Zeolite, which can store heat for an indefinite tim…
Energy: Sustainable Materials and Design
Zinc-air batteries (ZABs) have recently drawn wide interest in electrochemistry because of their high energy density, low cost, and environmental friendliness compared to the lithium-ion bat…
