Abstract: Innovation project that has been chosen by the inventors of Sekolah Kebangsaan Binjal entitled “Biomass Smart Camping Stove That Can Produce Electricity Using Thermoelectric Generator”. The stove which is produce from utensils container has been proven to help pupils and teachers in camping activities organized by the school. A rational for the project selection is to help address the constraints faced during camping activities involving all camp activities organized by the school, especially during rainy days. The portable stove also easy to use in a limited space area with no land, easy to carry, use of environmental friendly fuels and reducing environmental pollution. The thermoelectric generator that attach on the stove make the stove can produces electric energy. It is portable and very suitable to be used by the adventurer. Burning material used is renewable energy and reduce pollution. The advantages of the stove that can be used to charge your mobile phone in a desperate situation makes it a tool that can be commercialized. In addition, this project is a project that can attract students in the form of engineering activities. The smoke produced will expel the mosquitos and fowls. Ash wood can be used to fertile the soil. Charcoal can be used to whiten the teeth. The biomass stove is designed not only to improve cooking conditions and increase burning efficiency for fuel saving, but also come with a 12V – 15V thermoelectric generator for lighting during cooking and mobile phone or battery charging to improve life style. The product is said to have commercial value when it is practically used either in the open or closed area such as a room or in a covered area. It not only used for camping purposes, but as a teaching aid and can replace the function of Bunsen burner while doing experiments in the laboratory. Moreover, the benefits of a stove that has a dual function other than as a tool for cooking, frying, baking and as such, this smart stove can also be used to charge your mobile phone if the camping site has no electricity supply. This makes the product more valuable for commercialization.
