A RESEARCH PROPOSALPRESENTED BYCARAGA REGIONAL SCIENCE HIGH SCHOOL

“Improvised Magnetic Turbine: Conversion of Hazardous Carbon

Compounds From Burnt Non-recyclable Waste Materials”

INTRODUCTION

Fossil fuel use is the primary source of CO2. The way in which people use land is

also an important source of CO2, especially when it involves deforestation.

Land can also remove CO2 from the atmosphere

through reforestation, improvement of soils, and

other activities. Factories in China and other rising

economies now produce more carbon pollution than industries in America and

Europe.

All this talk about reducing carbon dioxide emissions is something that we hear time and time again. We

heard it during the totally disappointing Conference of the Parties on Climate Change last year in Lima,

at the climate march held in many cities in the world,

after Pope Francis’ visit last month to typhoon-ravaged Tacloban, Philippines and in

US President Barack Obama’s call to reduce

greenhouse-gas emissions.

In the year 2013, the Department of Education sponsored a program YES (Youth for Environment

Summer) Camp in Baguio City concerning the

mitigation of the Climate Change due to excessive

emission of Carbon Dioxide.

The delegation of Teachers and students from CARAGA REGIONAL SCIENCE HIGH

SCHOOL was challenged to take a response in the call

for the environmental change since the school is

experiencing the uncontrolled proliferation

of waste like non-recyclable materials.

And so the researchers were able to come up

with the proposed study entitled, “Magnetic

Turbine: Carbon Dioxide Converter From Burnt Non-recyclable Waste

Materials”.

PROBLEM

Statement of the ProblemThe study entitled “Improvised Magnetic Turbine: Conversion of Carbon Compounds From Burnt Non-recyclable Waste

Materials” will seeks to answer the following

questions;

1. Does the Improvised Magnetic Turbine effective in Converting the Carbon Compounds to Carbon dioxide in terms of emission test?

2. Is there any significant difference between the converted carbon compounds and the non-converted carbon compounds in terms of the greenhouse effect?

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY

The study entitled, “Improvised Magnetic Turbine: Conversion of Carbon Compounds From Burnt Non-recyclable Waste Materials” will benefits the following people;

Local Government: It will give an idea to the government officials to conduct an advocacy program regarding the impact of the carbon Dioxide to the health of the inhabitants and to give allocation to finance the project

in order to lessen the problem related to carbon dioxide as pollutant. They will be able to draft an ordinance for the violators on the said advocacy.

Residents: They will not suffer the effects of the pollution due to Carbon Dioxide.

School: The school will be able to solve if not reduce the improper Solid Waste Management.

Future Researchers: From the recommendation of the paper, the future researchers will be able to gain insights and improve the study later on.

METHODOLOGY Gathering of Materials: Magnets Metal sheet Copper Wire Any non-recyclable waste like tetra packs and the like

Battery

Procedure: The researchers will assemble the turbine using the magnets, circular flat metal sheet, the copper wire and the battery.

After assembling the device, the researchers will ensure that the device will run just like a water turbine.

The device will be set aside; the researchers will burn plastics from the CRSHS canteen.

Using the fume hood, the smoke coming from the burn garbage will be collected.

In the fume hood, the improvised device will be attached.

The turbine will convert the hazard carbon compounds into carbon dioxide.
