Sansevieria Plant: Plant Base Cell (PBC) to power up IoT sensors nodes

Ajay Kumar Singh

Abstract


First time in this paper we are characterized the sansevieria trifasciata plant to power up IoT sensor nodes. This plant belongs to succulent group and survives at a very high temperature with minimum requirement of water and having higher self-repair ability if any wound in leaf happened. This chosen plant produces larger electrical potential compared to other succulent group plants due to larger oxygen level. The harvested potential varies with the separation between electrodes and with the duration of experimental time. The number of series connected plants and the position of electrodes are the two main factors for controlling the harvested energy. We have harvested 2.80 V when three sansevieria trifasciata plants were connected in series and at least two electrodes were inserted into acidic soil.
