Recent Advances on Energy Production through Urine Electrolysis

Abstract
Since urine is produced everywhere, and a lot of it too humans alone are estimated to produce 6.4 trillion litres a year this idea has a strong local flavour. The ability to produce energy locally could give this technology an edge against other renewable energies such as solar and wind that are only cost- effective in certain areas. In this topic we generate electricity from urine this nothing but from urine. This is also called as pee powered generator. Here in this topic the main fuel is urine. Generally the urine has majorly water in addition to other chemicals like ammonia, sulphate, uric acid, urea etc. here the urine is passed to the electrolytic cell and from which hydrogen gas is evolved after electrolysis which is main component for generation. Here in urine urea is also a major component after water generally urea is chemical formula is CH4N2O here the four hydrogen molecules is weakly bonded with the other components. Thus this hydrogen gas is passed through various components this purified gas is given to the generator which generates the electricity.
