Pollution-Free Hydrogen World
| Division: | Biotechnology | | Category: | Junior | | Region: | Peel | | City: | Brampton, ON | | School: | Tomken Road Senior P.S. | | Abstract: | This project focused on increasing the amount of hydrogen produced from the green algae Chlamydomonas Reinhardtii, for use in hydrogen power. The optimum amount of hydrogen was produced when light intensities were high, temperatures were increased, and when daily light per day was longer. The hydrogen produced was determined by a flame test where the hydrogen gas would pop. |
