CHAPTER I Introduction Over 70% of the planet is covered by water. (75% of that is salt water‚ only leaving a 25% as fresh water which can be used for consumption. 70% of the fresh water of our planet is still frozen in the icecaps of Antarctica and Greenland; while the remaining percentage is present as soil moisture‚ or it lies underground as groundwater. Main Problem How can the seawater be utilized for the consumption of different organisms? Sub problems How will the results of the said

Various types of Fuel Cells and their working By : Divykant Vishwakarma 03996404910 EEE 2nd shift S.No. 14 Fuel Cell A fuel cell is a device that converts the chemical energy from a fuel into electricity through a chemical reaction with oxygen or another oxidizing agent. Hydrogen is the most common fuel‚ but hydrocarbons such as natural gas and alcohols like methanol are sometimes used. Fuel cells are different from batteries in that they require a constant source of fuel and oxygen/air
