Abstract
The main objective of this project is to produce an environmentally friendly bio-battery product or kit from two types of fruit waste, namely jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophylus) and durian (Durio zibethhinus), and also to explain the bio-battery application of the Jack D' Pack Energy Kit. The arrival of this season is eagerly awaited by Malaysians to taste the delicious pulp of jackfruits and durian. However, only the juicy pulp of jackfruits and durians is consumed and the peel (the green peel) is thrown away. To solve this problem, an electrochemical concept was introduced to prevent this issue. Electrochemistry is a relationship between electricity and chemical changes. It results from the outcome of the chemical reaction. In this project, we developed an alternative to use jackfruit and durian fruit waste by generating energy for electricity. Durian and jackfruit waste have the potential to generate energy because the peel structure of durian and jackfruit is similar. Both types of fruit have one thing in common: an pungent aroma strong smell. This kind of indicator will show great potential in producing bio- battery and producing it as a product or kit for marketing.
