Two students from Al-Khwarizmi College of Engineering at the University of Baghdad, (Hebatallah Abdul Kazim and Nawras Saadoun), have succeeded in producing the green hydrogen which is a type of renewable energy emerged from splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen using the renewable electricity. This study was one of the winning graduate projects in this regard.
The students stated during their speech that the green hydrogen is produced from a chemical process used to separate hydrogen from oxygen without emitting carbon dioxide, as it can meet about 25% of the world’s energy needs as a result of the demand of a large number of countries at present. It is noteworthy that the green hydrogen is an important element in decarbonization since it is a versatile material capable of storing energy compatible with the environment that can replace coal and gas as being feedstocks in the steel industry.
