DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF SOLAR PESTICIDE SPRAYER

Mechanical Engineering

Today’s energy demand is the great challenge for our society. Conventional energy (Fossil fuel, coal, Nuclear energy etc.) can be widely used in India for various purposes such as Textile industry, Power plant etc. Conventional energy produces a lot of harmful waste that can be harmful to our environment. In such situation we should move towards some non-conventional energy (Solar energy, Wind energy, Tidal energy) sources. It has become very popular for all kinds of development activities such as drying agriculture product, irrigation purpose and for spraying purpose. In this paper we are trying to make unique equipment for cultivation users. Finding solution to meet the energy demand is a great challenge for scientists and engineers. Now-a-days pesticide sprayer is operated based on fuel engine. This operation is more economical. To overcome this, we found out a new concept known as “solar pesticide sprayer”. Here, operation of pesticide sprayer is based on solar energy and hence there is no need of any kind of alternative energy source. It has many advantages such as cost of spraying and saving on Fuel/Petrol. There is less vibration as compared to the petrol sprayer. Hence, the system can easily be operated and there is no need of labors which increase the efficiency of farmland.
