PKL Backup LED Bulb—An Alternative Source of Electricity During Load Shading

Abstract

Load shading is a great crisis of Third World countries. It is happening in the Third World countries frequently. To overcome this situation, instant and sudden electricity with PKL backup LED bulb has been studied. In this research paper, PKL has been divided into 3 categories: fresh PKL, living PKL and the effect of Ag NPs for living PKL tree. A beautiful and innovative idea has been designed and developed to extract power from the living PKL tree, fresh leaves and the use of Ag NPs for living PKL backup LED bulb, which may be an eternal source of electricity during load shading. In this research work, an LED bulb has been considered as a load. An internal circuit is considered inside the LED bulb. The LED bulb acts as a load and storage system simultaneously. A small storage battery has been used inside a PKL backup LED bulb. A charge controller is also used with the storage battery to save the storage battery. Charge Controller saves the storage battery from overcharging and undercharging. It is shown that the longevity of the PKL backup LED bulb for a single fresh leaf is 20 h, for a living leaf it is above 20 h, and it is also found that the voltage was constant for using Ag NPs. The intensity variation with time duration for the above-mentioned 3 cases has also been studied. The LED bulb has been functioning by using electricity that has been extracted from the living and fresh Pathor Kuchi (Bryophillum pinnatum) leaves directly, and that is the novelty of this research work. This work is very innovative, a new and unique research work all over the world. It may be the guideline for future work.
