Self-Powered Thermoelectric Waste Oil Burner

The use of used waste oil has been widely implemented both in large industries such as metal smelters and home industries such as chicken coop heaters use a used oil waste burner. The technique of making waste oil burners for chicken coops generally uses the evaporation technique by using a electric blower to blow oxygen into the furnace which is filled with flammable steam from heated waste oil. The flame in the furnace will be directly proportional to the amount of oxygen exhaled into the furnace where the amount of oxygen exhaled depends on the rotation speed of the blower. In addition to the associated flame, the blower speed will affect to amount of burning efficiency and the level of combustion residue. Dependence on electric blowers is a major obstacle in implementing waste oil burners in areas that have not yet been electrified while chicken farms are generally in remote areas. The objective of this research is to prove that thermoelectric can be used to replace the VAC power source. Installation in parallel 8 TGM-287-1.4-1.5 thermoelectric modules, each of which has an output of up to 23 Watts to produce electricity which is used to powered 12 Volt 3 Amperes blower and also to charge a 12 Volt 35 Ampere battery. The excess electricity produced can be used for other purposes such as lighting.
