Master Thesis
Investigating the Potential of Municipal Solid Waste to Energy Opportunities in West Bank - Hebron City
Municipal solid waste management in the Hebron district in one of the environmental challenges. Treating the municipal solid waste requires knowledge concerning content and per capita produced waste.
The idea of waste - to – energy system is gaining acceptance worldwide, and hence after having all data concerning the status of the municipal solid waste, a research could be conducted focusing on assessing the calorific values of the different components of solid waste. An in cremation system could then be recommended.
In this context my proposal contains the following tasks:-
1. Survey on the municipal solid waste; content and size.
2. Measuring the calorific values using the instruments at the Renewable Energy and Environment Research Unit (REERU) labs.
3. Recommend the best incineration system, location, and capacity based on the data and information collected.
Graduation Project
Solar Tracking System
Building a model that works to focus solar rays in a point, to convert solar energy into thermal energy, then into electrical energy.
Note that this model tracks the movement of the sun.
Skills
Microsoft Word, Excel, Power point, Renewable energy systems, and AutoCAD.
