Hello everyone! Second Biodiesel class reporter, Bianca Almero reporting! I am here to update you on the current finished projects our class has made over the weeks:


Meet JORDAN PFOST, she is a junior in Key West High School. Although she may seem shy, she is very smart and worked over this project mostly by herself and organized the supplies with minimal help. She was inspired by a primetime Mr. Clearman conducted regarding AC units powered by ice to lower energy costs. She solely came up with the design of her mini AC unit! After planning on how she will be able to construct this she came up with a  prototype and began to build the wooden box (recycled from scrap wood) with the help of fellow junior OTTO IRWIN.


 Copper Wire runs through a cooler of ice which then passes through the box where a fan blows warm air over the pipes producing cool air. Perfect for the incoming hot weather, the Biodiesel class room now has a mini AC unit, all you gotta do is plug the fan and load up some ice and voila!
