THE METHARISE PROJECT
The MethaRise Project is a non-profit organization established to slow down global warming and build a conscious society against it.
The prototype includes devices such as a led and a buzzer to help with mechanism identification. Minor changes are made to the prototype according to the places where the assembly will be placed. For example, while sound and light levels are controlled in the setup of an animal farm, a heated device is used in rice fields and garbage collection areas.
In the assembly prototype
1 Arduino Card
2 Servo Motors
1 Methane Detector
1 LED
1 Buzzer
1 LCD Display
1 Potentiometer
1 Temperature and Humidity Meter
are to exist.
Among the greenhouse gases that cause global warming, methane emissions, which has the capacity to trap high level of heat, has reached abnormal levels today. Methane emission is intense; The device, which is designed to be placed in places such as garbage collection areas, rice fields, and cattle farms, detects the abnormal level of methane and releases the methanotrophic bacteria in it into the environment.
When the methane level in the environment reaches a normal level, the passages between the compartments are closed and more bacteria are prevented from being released into the environment. A controlled increase in the number of methanotrophic bacteria already present in the ecosystem where the device will be placed will not harm the ecosystem, and this has been confirmed by experts.
As seen in the designs, the mechanism consists of two chambers, one of which is three times the length of the other. There are bacteria in the wide compartment, and when the methane level increases, the methanotrophic transition door between the compartments will open, and some of the bacteria will pass into the second main compartment. With the opening of the main door, which will allow them to be released into the environment from the second compartment, the methane level will be reduced to normal.
