Maria Yzabell Angel V. Palma presents her AirDisc invention. This young Filipina inventor is working towards her dream to cool the world without the carbon foot print. Her invention does no use any refrigerant or hydrofluorocarbons. In an article by Philippine Star published about Yza Palma's AirDisc and how it works. AirDisc have a centrifugal compressor that uses rotating concentric air tanks with air inlets that continuously take in enough air molecules from a room for compression. The heat generated from the air compression is separated while the compressed air molecules with less heat are allowed to expand. This process effectively and continuously lowers the room temperature. She has been recognized world wide including the the International Federation of Inventors’ Association (IFIA). Read more here . I have been searching for role models for my own daughter who is in high school right now. This girl Yza could be an inspiration and a role model to all, across generatio
