Suggestion 1, also useful for a report you might need to hand in, write in comprehensible English.

Well I would think electrolysis would violate the rules. You could siphon off some energy from the corrosion though.

Sounds to me like home made battery..

 

Put piece of copper to container with salt water, with aluminium on other side. Check voltage with multi meter. Then check amperage. Connect multiple in parallel and serial. Check again. You will have to experiment with your own made electric engine..

Do you know how to make your own electric engine? It's just wire around piece of iron (electromagnet), placed between magnet. On YouTube there is plenty instructions how to make electric engine.

 

f.e.

 

According to pdf you can't use commercial batteries. But why not use self build battery? Which point is violated?
