    Compressed air is a vital medium for transferring energy in industrial processes. Compressors are efficient and reliable in meeting need and demand, especially in the industry while at the same time helping to reduce carbon footprint. However, there are several constraints using an air turbine as an operational element in generating electricity from compressed air. One of the key factors involved is the design of a blade that capable to increase the performance of the turbine and electricity generation from compressed air. Thus, this paper objectives are to develop a proposed design of a drag and lift type blade design and to evaluate the power generate that able to be harnessed from the force of the air. Additionally, the power coefficient that is harnessed from the generator using these new designs of blade also evaluated. In the experiment, the model is set up using the proposed concept of Savonius and Darrieus typed in order to generate electricity for small power equipment. Results show that these blade designs able to generate of 21-v for Savonius whereas 24-v for Darrieus from 0.3 MPa input source. Based on the result of an experiment, this study reveals that both type of blade design able to generate electricity constantly however, the performance of Darrieus vertical axis blade design is better compared to Savonius vertical axis blade design.

    Wave energy is one of the promising resources for harnessing a vast amount of renewable energy. Wave energy converter is being defined by a particular design and the power take-off system which signify the mechanism of absorbing the wave energy and convert it into electricity. Addressing the significant potential of wave energy, the wave converter using a pneumatic system and compressed air as energy storage is designed and fabricated. The concept is presented and tested in the wave maker to analyze the performance of the prototype. This project aims to study the capabilities of small-scale, low cost and portable wave energy converter using compressed air to generate power. In this project, an experiment is conducted using the force of wave to generate linear motion of double acting cylinder that specifically creates compressed air in a small-scale tank. From the experiment, it is observed that the wave energy able to compressed air at pressure up to 0.5 bar. Then, the compressed air which is stored in the storage tank is released and it flows through water turbine that works as a generator to produce a power output of 18 V. The feasibility study reveals that the experiment able to harness electricity using low equipment tool. Further improvement of the design can increase the efficiency of the pneumatic generated system and able to generate an electric power.
