Abstract:
The implementation of renewable resources to assist in cleaning pollution has a direct environmental impact where cleaning devices need to be installed remotely. Wind energy is one of the great potential renewable energy sources, which still not well utilized yet. The present study aims to design a small wind turbine used to drive a new proposed wind cleaner system. The proposed system is suitable for the wind blowing objects such as litters, plastics, and any lightweight garbage. The proposed system is a direct utilization of the system of wind scavenger as U.S. Patent No. 10,378,788. The invention system designed for air cleaning. The main findings of the proposed system analysis prove the feasibility of the proposed system.
