Abstract - This paper present the sound to electrical energy that are many conversion of electrical energy from many others
energy form like wind ,solar, biogas and others form. But in this paper we are focusing on the sound to electrical energy. We
are surrounded by sound energy like Roads, Airports ,highways and street about to notice it. There are many feasible
methods to get electricity from noise pollution and it is possible to running our devices with it.in this paper we have
described two needed method to get Electricity .”LETS HOW COULD WE GOT IT”.see below

Keywords - Sound Energy, Microphone, PZT Actuators and Electricity.

I. INTRODUCTION II. METHOD

we all know that one special Law about energy that is
known as “LAW OF ENERGY” energy is neither be
created nor be destroyed its converted from one form
to other form. we know that there are various form of
energy form in our atmosphere and our surrounds
which can play fabulous roll in our daily power
requirements and need of electricity. In 2030 when
the fossils fuels will at end off then other energy will
full fill others needs.
Solar is an important energy which is available in the
atmosphere today there are many research are on the
process of this fabulous solar energy. there are many
applications of solar energy like solar heater, solar
cockers, solar panel which is use in our domestic
house and commercials houses to fulfill our needs of
power.
Renewable energy like hydro, wind, nuclear etc are
most valuable energy generated form but as expect
nuclear all above renewable energy generate less
energy as our needs but these are requirements of
costly and huge space to installed their instruments.
Microphone and piezoelectric devices are playing a
good roll in our less requirements power like these
device generated less power in micro watts and milli
watts at the few cost. Microphone has an unique
ability to catch the sound and convert it into electrical
energy its diaphragm.
when sound vibrations is on it then it has strain and
stressed so that converted into the electrical energy
and piezoelectric (PZT) is made of crystalline
structure materials which direct convert mechanical
to electrical energy and vice versa . my research
paper is on the two method of converting electrical
energy like piezoelectric and microphone by utilizing
of wastes and pollutions of noise and create reliable
and useful energy sources. Our daily life useable
device charged by this .
The sound to electrical conversion is not a new
concept this was proposed by first of all Los Alamos
National Laboratory in collaboration with the
Northrop Grumman Space Technology, USA. And
they have used a generator in this a moving piston
was used for the conversion .
Sound energy is converted into electrical energy by
transducer. Here the transducer as a microphone
which is to many application as like audience
gathering, social gathering and covey message to
others persons etc. here That microphone convert the
sound energy into electrical energy at low level by
capacitor bank boost that energy and charge our
gadgets.
But this technology A microphone have to use to
catch sound signal from the surrounding and convert
it into the electrical energy. like we speak on
microphone the microphone convert it into the
electrical signal there is no need to re-convert it to its
original form . 9v dc battery is installed to store the
electrical signal and use as many application.
This will be a new concept because there is no such
application or appliances are made to use direct from
sound to run. The basic idea is that sound is
mechanical wave. When sound travels through any
medium then it disturbs the particles of that particular
medium and these disturbances caused by the sound
can be used to produce electricity. by this method
many devices are made and installed in noisy areas.

IV. METHOD 2
The second method is related to the piezo-electric
device in this method the sound energy is converted
into electrical energy by the help of piezo – electric
device. The strain is applied on the surface of the
crystal then the due to deformation converted into
electricity.
Material use in Piezo-electric
In piezo electric materials are to use to converted the
mechanical deformation to electricityLikes, Quartz,
DNA whereas artificially ZnO, lithium ,niobatet,

Piezo-electric crystal
Piezo-electric format in human today scientists has
prove in their research. Human contains one tone
battery in the form of fats may be that fats use to run
our small gadgets like mobile.PZT actuator is also a
experimental instrument that can convert the sound
into electricity that practical perform in Bangladesh
used it in the train wheels. Electricity to store in big
bank battery and that storages energy can be use in
operating the FAN, TUBELIGHTS etc.

Fig5 measurement of pressure and volts.
Design and Cost
This actuator is design as lead zirconate titante (PZT)
ceramic, the PTZ is the white disk in the center of a
brass diaphragm and the centre is coated as the silver
the other area is coated as brass there is little bit space
between silver and brass coated area due to this when
mechanical stress is applied on or sound wave is
applied then it form as sink and expension so that

mechanical phenomena that energy converted into
electricity. The cost of the crystal shown in fig is
very less as compaire to other actuator.because the
device hardly $ 0.04.
V. PROJECT
In my project we have used both the actuators like the
microphone and PZT because that if the microphone
will not work the PZT actuator can be work and
perform well .the project is performing well result
during the experiment .this experiment was
performed on the mobile when we have given sound
energy the mobile started to charge when stop that
then stop charging. Second experiment was to press
the PZT crystal device then due to mechanical stress
and strain the mobile was also charge the project
shown in fig .

PZT actuator.
VI. FUTURESCOPE
 This project can be use any place where noise at
high level like Stadium, traffic light railways
wheel.

 In future it can help to full fill power needs.
 It will good and less costly because it can run on
wasted energy.
 In 2030 when world feel remove its self from
fossils fuel the this type of device will play a
good roll in power needs.
 Its other application in street light on the road
due to vehicle sound the light will glow no other
electricity is required it also reduce noise
pollution.
CONCLUSIONS
 There are various form of energy that we don’t
have notice about them but they may play vital
roll in our daily life. This type device can reduce
the noise pollution and as well as the us noise
pollution from our atmosphere to run our daily
life gadgets like mobile.
 This device installed it at any noisy area and DC
battery is connected to store and use its as our
requirements.
