Termitent (Termites Energen)
Coal industry in Indonesia has lead to many major enviromental problem. Like land and water contaminated by ash and dangerus air aroud.
We are proposing Termitent as soluton to reduce enviromental impact on land water, and air. We commited to keep sustainable development during the proses. We also create new jobs, healtier environment, and better life quality. Coming with the help of termites we are capable of extract methane from coal and leave minimum enviromental issues.
Our solution can reduce the carbon dioxide and when our idea apply to the whole world we can reduce many enviromental issue during gaining energy in many developing countries. Thus create less pulluted world and create beutifull world along.
coal industry has been main energy that poered our nation, about 80% of energy are based on coal. When a company trying to minning coal they make many enviromental issue during the process and after minning.
First before minning industry tend to burn down entire junge to make minning field. Which cause many respiration disease, unbalanced food chain because animal has lost their habitats, and death because of pullution.
Second after the minning industry many companies left their responsible to make the field habitable again. Many case has proves company failed to make the field habitable. The pullution that comes during production also add severity of environment. Pullution coming in the form of fly ash, bottom ash, dangerus chemicals.
The popoluton we are working is still did not know about enviromental issue that has been cause by coal. their stll very much depent on coal energy. This has been lead to many people not thinking about energy issue. Which can be dangerous because the world are looking for better energy and more enviromental energy but our country still lack of the understanding about clear energy. There was a case where Indonesia had idea to make nuclear rector in battam but rejected because many people think that it is very dangerus althought it is safe.
Termitent will extract methane from coal with the help of termites. With specific behavior we can extract much more cleaner energy than coal. We also add AI/machine learning to compute best factor or optimal live of termites. Ai is using to control the need of food and environment control. We would like to cope with ai that has been training with supervise data to create the most comfortable place for termites.
We are using big houses of termites to maximize efficiency and productivity of termites. The big houses are consist of ten layers. There are about 1 million termites per layer. The coals enter the houses and dropped in every layer so the termites can eat the coals.
We know that termites eat cellulose. With the microba in digestive system of termites, cellulose can change into methane gas (CH4). Methane that came out from the termites is accumulated in the tank.
the methane is gas that easily burn so it will be using for generates heat and creating steam of water so it will power the turbine and create electricity.
The methane are capable of creating 9900% more watts/hours than conventional coal. Based on our data methane is making less carbon dioxide than coal.
Termitent also keep environment stay nature. We dig our coal with pipe that deliver hot and cold water to soften the coalbed. With the softened coalned we can pump form underground to the ground. After that, coal is going to be cleaning and make more appeling to the termites. Coal then use to feed termites based on our compute on how much termtes needs. After feeding to the termites we are going to extract methane around the big house. After collecting and storing in gas strorage we going to burn methane so it will generates heat. Using cold water we heating the tank so the steam will be going to move the turbine. The turbin then move the generators and convert mechanical energy into electrical energy. The electricity move to the transformer step up that capable of increasing energy up to 80%. After then it will using to power the house and industry.
- Prevent infectious disease outbreaks and vector-borne illnesses
- Reduce the incidence of NCDs from air pollution, lack of exercise, or unhealthy food
- Prototype
- New application of an existing technology
We are working on improving technologies that already exist in the world. Our innovation is using machine learning to increase effectiveness of machine
We working on making model for our machine and hoping it will be completed next years. We also need to collect big data to train model through linear regression so it will coming to real world.
We using three kind of technogy for our machine.
First we using dig and pump on site that capable of collect coal from deep underground.
Second we using house of termitent to make the best for termites place to live and produce methane.
Third we using AI to commodate data for our worker so it will lead to maximum efficient without compromising time.

We have the idea to make minning more environment friendly and cost as minimumm as possible. We hoping that our deas will help the world especially Indonesia.
Using methane to generate heat rather than hardcoal which has prove making less pollution to the environment.We hoping to solve ash problem and dangerous chemicals on coal industry.
Using dig and pump onsite we hope we don't destroy the forest and only take what we need. We hope to solve deforestation, respiration disease, and dangerous air in community.
Using dig and pump onsite technology we hope reduce cost of Rehabilitation process after mining. And using dig and pump onsite we hope to reduce carbon footprint of Vehicle and ship that bring coal to the factory.

We still making prototype of this so it's still in developments. We hope that people will use our technology by number 1,000 in a year after it release. We hope that it increase to 8,000 in the next five years.
We hope to release and finalise our prototype. So it could be use for public. We also have goals to create better AI with training system.
- First stuck with computing the best model to feed the termites
- Second We need more data to improve model.
- We will discuss with expert to make model of machine learning more effective.
- we going to do a lot of experment to collect more data
- Nonprofit
3 people are youth people are working.
We are having tight bound so we will cooperate better. We have basic mathematics modelling according our department in mathematics. We started to develop our idea since a half year ago and received suggestions from our lecture and student who is expert in this kind of problem.
- PLN, we hoping to sell more affordable clean energy with them and we also going to work with larger company of coal to change their system.
- Coal Company, we hope can work together with Coal Company by implementing the Termitent working principle in mining and processing coals.

We are not yet do fundraising.The fee-for-service model of social enterprise commercializes its social services. We offer our idea to Coal Company to use the Termitent working pricple and then sells the electricity output directly to the target populations or "clients," individuals, firms, communities, or to a third party payer.
We will had chance to meet expert who can maturise our ideas and accompany us making our product which is really great. We will also consult and discuss with them about the future prospect of our idea.

If we are selected to become participants for SOLVE we will work harder to make our ideas not just in papper but works in reality. We will continue to develop our idea or the better solution.
Coal industry (paiton) in Java and hardware organization to make machines, tools, and infrastucture of the company to build the factory.
We are hoping our AI will help advance our progress by minimize air pollution caused by coal industry.
We will use the prize to develop our idea to the reality. We will maximize the use of prize in product development and reduce purchases of things that are not needed.
We have lecture who guide us to develop our idea, taking the data sources, and using good data sources.
We will use prizes to develop clean and friendly environmentally technologies to create an environment that more clean and less harming to community.
Source data for our AI data will utilized on our own experiments.
- The data then use to train CNN and make an algorithm that make our tools work properly
- We will use positive data and supervised machine learning to ensure the outcome become as we expected and achieve our initial goal.
- We gonna use the data as or training the AI and we will use it with fully responsiblity.
The use of prizes will be focused on developing products so that Termitent that created can reduce air pollution due to coal mining. A healthy environment will help children and the community have the healthty life.
