Located in the tropical waters of the Atlantic would be a vast field of floating solar collectors, providing power for electrodes submerged in the seawater. At the cathodes, hydrogen is collected and piped to compressors and liquified for shipping. The compressors are also powered by the solar collectors.
This cooler target is to utilize a renewable energy technology that reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to improving the food, medicine, and vaccine supply chains in Africa. Our product can freeze liquids and maintain the freshness of fruits, vegetables, medicines, and vaccines. It’s powered by solar photovoltaic (PV), wheel electricity, vehicle engine,
Problem
To select target specifications, SHSSP22 participants reviewed literature in space applications (engineering), management and business (human performance), science (humanities), policy (ethics), and law (law and ethics). The research uses AI and ML to define an application's functional requirements and make system design recommendations.
Most car wheel diameters are in the range of 14 to 19 inches with such car following is submitted.
For a car with wheel diameter 14 inch (radius R= 17.8 cm) ,Circumference = 2πR, then the circumference is 111.78 cm or 1.11 meter.
For a larger wheel diameter of 28 inch (radius R=35.56 cm), circumference =2πR, the,
Solar power is the fastest growing sector of the global clean energy market, presenting one of the most promising solutions to counter the negative effects of climate change. Photovoltaic (PV) power plants are the most widely utilized type of solar energy generation.
Problem: Overall sunlight to electricity efficiency of solar PV plants are very low. Moreover,
Nowadays, more people are choosing biking either as an alternative mode to transportation or as an outdoor activity for recreational purpose. The cycling trend was particularly boosted during COVID-19 pandemic as evidenced by the soaring sales in bikes and accessories. Unfortunately, the cyclist fatalities have also increased 35% over the past ten years.

The use of PPE has increased dramatically during the COVID-19 pandemic, with an estimated 6.8 billion (approximately 206,470 tonnes) disposable face masks, as an example, being used each day globally. The demand is expected to increase at a compounded annual rate of 10.6%-11.2% until 2027 at least.
PROBLEM
Hypertension is a pandemic. Inadequate diagnosis and control increases the risk of diseases: Stroke, Retinopathy, Nephropathy, Hypertensive Encephalopathy, Myocardial Infarction, cognitive impairment and death from cardiovascular events. Approximately 30% of the world's population is hypertensive. Single-chamber blood pressure cuffs with different measurements are available on the market.
Pollution is a powerful thing. It's hard to manage and is very bad for our Earth. My solution to this problem is a very sturdy machine I call a garbage disposal. It's built from 9 different motors just to turn into 3 different motors. Our factories use these types of DC motors every day.
