Fish Electricity from Kitchen Waste

Most of my articles are tend to be about electricity and the methods of producing electric power. This is not because I am an "electric man", but the society made me to dig on electricity. I can't keep my mouth shut when the society is starving and at the same time food is available under their nose! Even after reading all my articles, the ministers are repeating the same story - today they will say "we have to do load shedding" and tomorrow in another stage they will say "no...this year we have enough water in our government.....so no load shedding...". Now, Google is fed up with these statements and asking me what to do! They have already installed a dedicated server to handle these statements because the number of search results on electricity, load shedding and power cut is in millions! Can't trust? See it here and here!

Aquariums are very beautiful and many of us own one and used to keep in our houses. It is an amusement for kids as well as elder people to feed the fishes. This is the story of simple houses - keeping fishes for non-profit purpose. There are farmers who does large level fish farming. Usually this is supported by government through various means such as subsidy, loans and marketing support. If you have enough land and water, this would be an ideal business for you - much better than software development or engineering. No certifications required no written tests, no job interviews!

Time to start questions! "Dude... you started with Edison, electricity and power cut, and ended with fish farming... what is this? Do you think that we are fools?...." Different from previous articles, this time the questions looks little tough!

Trust me, without a reasonable reason, I won't talk about anything. I used to see those simple facts where all the science community used to miss. This time also! Let us see what it is.

We have severe concerns about the production and consumption of electricity because the demand is more than availability. No proper planning has been taken to manage the future demands of electricity. And the most disappointing fact is that, even if we plan, it will take years to start the construction. Even if the construction is started, again years are required to complete it and start the production. In short, we need a cost effective and quickly scalable technology for producing electricity. In addition to that, if the source is natural, there is nothing like that!

Now, time to link this requirement with fish. Everyone knows that there are many fishes which can generate electricity from their body. The most powerful one out of these fish community is "electric eel". Read the article carefully - you will see that it can generate 500 Volts, 1 Ampere electricity. That means, just one fish can drive a 500 Watts pump set - which is sufficient to pump water for one small family! If you have just 5 numbers of such fishes, it is more than enough to run the complete house with all equipments such as TV, Washing Machine, Heater, Iron box, or even Air Conditioner!

Now, the cost of production - these fishes can be trained to eat your kitchen waste and biological waste! This has two advantages - the kitchen waste can be converted to electricity as well as we can stop worrying about waste disposal and management - in other words, we don't have to take loan from ADB! Will have a positive impact on GDP!

The implementation strategy can also be in two forms - either every house can feed their own fishes or a big fish farm can act as a "fish power station" for the entire state. The existing distribution infrastructure can be used in this scenario also, which helps in reducing the cost of implementation. To easy the management, it is a great idea to merge electricity department with fisheries department and assign a jobless minister to head it.

The summary is:

Cheap electricity - prices will further go down and GDP will further go up!

plenty of electricity - no more load shedding!

Bio-Electricity - no heat, no radiation, no dam collapse, no toxins etc.

Electricity from kitchen garbage - better waste management

Fishes controls mosquito breeding - No more "Chicken Gunia" and "Dengue".

Can be integrated with existing aquariums or fish farms - seamless integration

Scalability - just grow more fishes to support growing demand

Quick production - Comparing to the current power projects which takes years to complete, it will take just few months only to get a fish productive.

Now tell me, is there any reason to not to make use of it? ("Don't you agree with me?")
