THE PALM NATURAL FERTILIZER (FOOD SECURITY IN THE WORLD)
INTRODUCTION
This invention is based on Fertilizer produced from the palm potash. Fertilizers are important national and agricultural support commodities. Fertilizer production process is based on partial oxidation of fossil vegetable (palm bunch) which co produces both polycarbonsuboxide and carbon when the buch is incinerated.
THE PALM MEDICINAL BEAUTY BODY SOAP AND THE PALM MEDICINAL BODY OIL
INTRODUCTION
This invention is based on production of herbal soap for the healing of skin diseases. Since the components in the formulation are from the herbal source it is very safe, eco-friendly and does not not produce any harmful effect on the skin.
THE PALM PREMIUM MOTOR SPIRIT (PETROL) BIOFUEL
INTRODUCTION
Environmentally friendly palm petrol disclose the process of producing the high pour point palm energy, but not exclusively via estification of mixed fatty acids or fractional distillation of methyl of palm kernel oil. Palm petrol bio fuel causes less air pollution,
THE PALM AVIATION KEROSENE BIO FUEL
INTRODUCTION
The Palm Aviation Kerosene Bio Fuel and the Palm kerosene bio fuel exhibit, mixture of methyl can produce a low pour point which will make the fuel useable and reach the world standard. The fuel is produced from the palm kernel oil and a petroleum product at a ratio. The bio fuel causes

Access to safe water is problematic for 1.1 billion people in developing countries and challenging everywhere following natural disasters. Increasing temperatures due to climate change will progressively damage water supplies as heavy rainfalls produce sewage overflows and key water sources (mountain glaciers and snow pack) diminish. Furthermore, 
This concept is the solution for short distance mobility of person and load (packages…) without noise in urban areas. The target of this product is to be used for leisure transportation in closed sites (circuit paddock, golf courses, airports…) and/or urban areas by individuals for their daily commuting but also by courier to deliver packages in buildings.
Electrical powered Treadmill bike is the collaboration of two commodities i.e. Treadmill and electric bike. Treadmill is a device widely used for exercising purpose to stay fit and healthy. Treadmill machines are able to eliminate impact force and adapt to dynamics of human motion.
To minimize health impacts of air pollution, we designed and developed a novel diesel exhaust control device: the Electrostatic Screen Battery for Emissions Control (ESBEC). The ESBEC is a two-stage electrostatic precipitator with separate charging and collection sections (Fig.1). As the pollutant particles are pulled into the device,
PROCESS OF CAPTURING SOLAR ENERGY TODAY IS VERY INEFFICIENT.
World is looking forward to increasing electrical energy generation through renewable energy sources. Solar thermal has fallen way behind solar photovoltaic due to WRONG belief that it is inefficient. Installed Solar PV plants are known to have an efficiency of just about 14%.
