| dc.description.abstract | Carbon dioxide reduction is one of the major concerns worldwide and the MES is one of the ways for that. It amplifies methane production by reducing the amount of carbon dioxide in the biochemical system.
The thesis centers around the design of an electrically isolated power supply system that can energize a laboratory-scale setup. The electrically isolated system with the half-bridge and full-bridge dc-dc converter is designed and based on the power requirement, the full-bridge dc-dc converter system is investigated closer. Various requisite components are discussed and a centrally tapped transformer suitable for the model is formulated with known parameters. The developed DC power supply model employing a full-bridge dc-dc converter works with 82% efficiency and with the use of proper cables and a cooling system the efficiency can be improved further. It will be connected in a series configuration to provide the necessary power to the MES while at the same time losing less power in the power supply circuit. | |
