Biomass Power System

Wednesday, 23 October 2024

Photosynthetic City

Photosynthetic City is a project designed to alleviate the burden of fossil energy on the environment. The photosynthetic city consists of two parts. The first part is the solar utility installed on the roof part. The second part is the biomass power generation device, which uses the plant waste planted on the side of the building to provide fuel for the CHP steam turbine power generation device to generate electricity. In this way, the impact on the environment is reduced, and a large number of plantings are also beneficial to the environment.

Doaba Dhaba

Doaba Dhaba is a cloud kitchen concept in India that gives the customer the bandwidth of selecting their own choice of food, in their own choice of cooking, and their own choice of gravy.

The main dishes are packed in Handis (clay pots), handcrafted by local artisans. The rotis and naans (flatbreads) are packed in banana leaves held together by jute threads. These go into a bag made of recycled paper.

SeeTang Collection

SeeTang, an algae biopolymer, raises awareness about plastic polluted design departments like food packaging and fashion. SeeTang instant dish packaging is cooked alongside food ingredients as the biomaterial is 100 percent dissolvable in water, vegan and edible. The outer packaging can either be recycled by the consumer or biodegraded. SeeTang Fashion solely uses extracted dye from food leftovers, spices and dried flowers. The bags and jewellery are made from the same biopolymer as the instant dish and are 100 percent compostable.

No Footprint House

The NFH is developed for serial production, based on a larger toolbox of prefabricated residential typologies. A first prototype was built for a European family in the southwest of Costa Rica. They chose a two-bedroom configuration with steel structure and pine wood finishes, which was shipped to its target location on one single truck. The building is designed around a central service core in order to optimize logistical efficiency regarding assembly, maintenance and usage. The project seeks for integral sustainability in terms of its economic, environmental, social and spatial performance.
