Nowadays people were continuously seeking for sources of energy, worldwide. The most frugally efficient conventional energy sources they had now were finite and is being depleted continuously as the time passes by. Also one of the challenges people were facing nowis about poverty, wherein they’re in need of source energy which isaffordable enough. Especially to those people who were located inplaces unreachable of electricity which needing a heat source energythe most. Likewise farmers, which by the observations of there searchers is needing light and heat energy when they go working onwoodlands far reachable of electricity. That is why the researcherswanted to study about the heat content of calcium carbide combined with water being a source of heat energy.
According to Damien Thryn, calcium carbide is a chemical compound that is when combined with water produces acetylene gas, and that the compound has numerous industrial application. In the record, there were many people who already tried studying about calcium carbide, like Ealious D. Bell who discussed in her invention of“Calcium Carbide Power System with Waste Energy Recovery” whichis calcium carbide based power system for stationary and mobilepower plants, that the carbide is reacted with water to create heat andacetylene, with the acetylene then being burned to heat a boiler for providing steam to a steam expander. Which, in this invention, sheproposed the acetylene produced by calcium carbide as a source of fuel for a conventional internal combustion engine. However it is not the study the researchers will focus on.
The main purpose of this study is to generate a source of energy, specifically heat energy, using the heat content of calcium carbide,unlike what others commonly studying for like making calciumcarbide chemical compound as a source or alternative for fuel and as aproduction of acetylene. In this study the researchers will focus on the maximum heat the calcium carbide can produce to become a heatenergy source. Certainly the researchers aim to answer the following queries:
1. How was calcium carbide formed?
2. Does calcium carbide produced heat energy when combined with water?
3. Can the heat content of calcium carbide when combined with water enough to boil a water?
This is a study conducted two years ago, what do you think is the answers to the queries above. Share your thoughts, feel free to comment below.
