such device can convert noise from factories, stock markets, railways, airports etc.. into useful energy. is that a feasible idea??

well,it is ofcourse a feasible idea..
as answerer #2 had said about needing more microphones..why not it be like this..
there are sound absorbers..and sound is a form of energy..if u how to convert or make use of the absorbed sound by a sound absorber(or silencer) i think its possible..!
also,let me tell u something about noise..
Two types of deliberately generated noise in common use are referred to as 'white noise', which has a uniform spectral power density at all frequencies, or 'pink noise' which has a power spectral density that falls at 3dB/octave with rising frequency. The latter is often more useful in audio testing because it contains constant energy per octave (and hence per commonly used 1/3rd octave), rather than a prepondance of energy at high frequencies. In other words it contains energy that is destributed geometrically rather than linearly
go ahead if u r making a project on this or something.its very useful to mankind..u can use pink noise for this..!
hope this helps u..

Yes, but It is not cost effective. Microphone converts noise to low power electricity. How many microphones do you need to turn on a light bulb?

It can be converted into energy, but it would be too little to be worth the bother.

good idea, energy can convert to each other.go ahead.

The power is weak.
