Abstract

Environmental risk due to excessive residual emission from fossil-based fuel on transportation engine and industrial process is rising as market rivalry becomes intensive between superpower countries. Greenhouse effect, ice melting in Arctic, reduction of air quality are several of main concerns which need immidiate development and change. Energy harvesting equipment is one of the key solutions. environment potential, e.g. Water resource can be collaborated with mechanical equipment to harvest clean energy. Savonius water turbine has been proposed and studied for this purpose and can be placed on several water resources. Still, real-world implementation of this technology is lack, especially in tropical archipelago countries which have abundant water resource. In this work, assessment of savonius water turbine as instrument to harvest clean energy is conducted. Reduction of air pollution is estimated in order to provide environmental signification as affected by savonius in producing alternative clean energy.
