The Department of Biochemical Engineering at Al-Khwarizmi College of Engineering organized a workshop on sustainable energy, led by Professor Dr. Muhammad Al-Sarraj, in the Graduate Studies Hall. The event, attended by faculty members and department heads, aimed to explore innovative projects and initiatives in the field of sustainable energy.
The workshop featured an introduction to sustainable energies and highlighted several topics for future projects:
- Designing and implementing underground energy exchanges with solar energy in the winter and studying several variables on them.
- Designing and implementing underground energy exchanges with cooling towers in the summer and studying several variables on them.
- Designing coolers that operate on ground energy, whether for air or water.
One notable project discussed was the salt removal project using solar energy, a pioneering initiative implemented in collaboration with Al-Mustaqbal University College. This project leverages ground energy to cool or heat air and water, marking a significant advancement in Iraq’s sustainable energy efforts.
The overarching goal of these workshops and projects is to foster scientific research and innovation among graduate students, encouraging the development of advanced ideas that contribute to the industrial and economic sectors of the country. By showcasing the achievements of professors and academic researchers, Al-Khwarizmi College of Engineering aims to inspire further advancements in sustainable energy technologies.
