In order to encourage clean energy and consolidate the concepts of sustainable development and "green economy" according to the vision of Egypt 2030 .. Researchers at the Faculty of Agriculture at Ain Shams University devise an electric tractor working on solar energy instead of gasoline to provide operating cost, increase agricultural production and protect the environment from pollution.
On the advantages of the tractor, the possibility of its implementation and its marketing among the farmers, the Egypt News website, Imad al -Din Hussein Ghoneim, met the owner of the idea and its perpetrator with students at the Faculty of Agriculture.Uses work with electricity, but the source of charging is solar panels (on the idea that we can say on the light energy panels because they work with light and not with heat, I mean it works day by sunlight and at night through any lighting issued by any light source).
He continued: The project was presented to the students group (about 10 students), the batch of the academic year 2020/2021, and they agreed, and the work of the electric jars was funded.Mihoub and Dr. Mohamed Fathi Attia altogether.
Clean energy
Imad Hussein continued: The truth is the idea of the project came from the direction of the world and the state to dispense with the sources of fossil energy and the use of renewable energy sources. And the idea of the multi -task electric electric project is based on solar energy that turns into an electrical energy stored in cargo batteries that work with electric motors based on the world's direction for clean renewable energy such as wind, seas, solar and nuclear and disposal of fossil energy such as petroleum that pollutes the environment with exhaust resulting from its burning, which affects On human and animal health and changes the temperature of the earth with an increase, which helps to melts ice poles, the flow of sea water, and the disappearance of some cities from the global map
The possibilities of "solar tractor"
And on the capabilities of the agricultural tractor, Eng. Imad Hussein explained that he works entirely with electricity and it is possible to add a computer segment to operate through a computer program, GPS system and vision cameras for the possibility of self -employment without the intervention of the human factor except in developing programs for it.
Also one of the possibilities of the non -moving tractor with electricity is that it is composed of a tank with a tank in a pipeline of pesticide to spray crops and has a plow to plow the ground in several ways and has an external movement of external movement to the possibility of connecting belts to manage several separate machines such as an electricity generation machine, grain grinding machine or water pump pump machine... etc.
Innovation to record the patent .. Ghoneim said: The truth is large companies that made an electrical tractor that works by charging with electricity, including a major company that worked as a tractor that works self, but it works with charging through an electrical source and not solar panels and its equipment is the plow only.
Without sound or exhaust
This tractor is characterized by the low cost of the operation process and does not cause environmental or auditory pollution because it does not issue a disturbing and equipped voice to work automatically either through the "Mobil Applestation" program or through a computer without human intervention.
He stated that the project components include:
-3 Electricity engines continuously 6.3 volts and 4 Nm of torque (the first engine is the function of moving the tractor right and left and the second engine to move the engine forward and behind and the third engine to move the plow) -2-2 battery value 6 volts connected to the following (the batteries are shippedIn a time (3-5) hours. 3-It contains a pistker to operate a function of the grinding and grinding machines, etc. -4-it contains lights and an alert machine (Calx (.Jarbon controlling arm.
Regarding his demands and the aspirations of the project, he said: I hope to find a party that funds the idea and is manufactured in a natural size to find its way to work on the farmer.
Marketing innovative ideas
As for how to market these ideas and employ them to serve the community, Dr. Radwan, Director of the International Publishing Unit and the Innovations Unit in Ain Shams Agriculture, told the site that specialized courses are held in the college to design a practical model for students' ideas and innovative researchers and provide them HUB for innovation and entrepreneurship and we organize multiple seminars with the production sector to direct itInnovative research and ideas to solve the problems of the production and commercial sectors.
She added that these projects contribute to the development of the spirit of integrated teamwork between students and the formation of research teams from various specialties so that we reach the similar thought integrated for innovative ideas and applied research.
She emphasized that the difficulties faced by the innovative student in implementing his idea and trying to remove them are identified by providing scientific consultations and opening various research laboratories to conduct his research and experienceVarious competitions for students and researchers.
Dr. Famiya Radwan indicated that the Faculty of Agriculture participated in the Ain Shams Scientific University conference through a pavilion in the exhibition that was held on the sidelines of the conference by displaying the model of the jars that works in solar cells instead of gasoline, which supports the direction of clean energy use and also a production and generation of energy generationExtracted from plants.
It also offered a device that separates the sources of electricity when gas leakage and separates gas and electricity in the event of a fire.
She drew attention to the production of bakery and livelihood from the plant of the Cana and its replacement of wheat, as the Canao plant is high nutritional value and does not cause problems for wheat allergy patients, as the Cana plant can be cultivated in lands that are not suitable for agriculture and can be irrigated with salt water.
** We hope that these projects will enjoy those who adopt them until you find their way to factories and farms and serve society.
