Empowering Cottage Industries with Sustainable Energy Solutions: Introducing the Waya Cottage Energizer. (Patent-Pending) ??
We are excited to announce the development of the Waya Cottage Energizer, an innovative solution designed to empower cottage industry-level producers with sustainable waste heat harvesting technology. This project, spearheaded by a talented team from the Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Technology, addresses the significant cost and complexity barriers that have previously hindered small-scale producers from adopting efficient biochar conversion processes.
While large-scale waste heat harvesting technologies are well-established, their sophistication and cost have made them inaccessible to smaller producers. Our team’s patent-pending technology bridges this gap by introducing low-tech, cost-effective solutions specifically tailored for small-scale biochar conversion. This allows producers to efficiently harness waste heat energy for various low-temperature applications, such as food dehydration, while minimizing harmful emissions and contributing to environmental conservation efforts.
This breakthrough technology not only enhances the sustainability and viability of small-scale biochar conversion processes but also promotes environmentally friendly practices within the biomass energy conversion field.
We extend our sincere gratitude to the AHEAD/RA3/UBL/WUSL/OVAA36 grant provided by the World Bank's Accelerating Higher Education Expansion and Development (AHEAD) Operation for their generous financial support, which has been instrumental in making this project a reality.
I would like to acknowledge and thank the entire research team: Charaka Jayathunga, Arundi Isurini, Kavindi Adikari, Pradeep Wijendra, Lucky Wellalage, Manjula Wickramasinghe (Lead), Suchira Hathurusinghe, Thanya Priyadarshana, Avishka Herath, and Pasan Sanjeeva. Your dedication, expertise, and commitment to sustainable development have been invaluable.
Together, let us continue to drive innovation, empower cottage industries, and build a brighter, more sustainable future.
