Potentiality Evaluation of Human Excreta and Biodegradable Municipal Solid Waste to Generate Electricity Through Biogas for Electric Vehicle Charging Stations

The proliferation of Electric Vehicles (EV) in recent times paves the way for cheaper transportation costs, lower GHG emissions, etc. However, the requirement for charging the EV batteries and lack of sufficient Electric Vehicle Charging Station (EVCS) in Bangladesh linger the time and incur a higher cost from the EV owners. Most EV owners harness power from the residential connection illegally and cause power system loss by paying the bill as the residential consumer. Moreover, the non-linear characteristics of the EV charger affect the grid power quality by injecting harmonics, causing voltage fluctuation and power loss. To overcome the problems, this research focuses on utilizing Human Excreta and Biodegradable Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) to generate electricity through Biogas for EV charging. The proposed model is developed using MATLAB Simulink software, and a techno-economic conclusion is made to ensure the design's feasibility and sustainability.
