1 00:00:30,829 --> 00:00:32,549 Big applause for the team. 2 00:00:43,490 --> 00:00:44,829 Twins like mine. 3 00:00:45,850 --> 00:00:47,390 Parents of the twins here. 4 00:00:49,070 --> 00:00:52,390 I was going to give them a trophy to your parents. 5 00:00:53,630 --> 00:00:54,549 Are you ready? 6 00:00:55,850 --> 00:00:56,409 Yes? 7 00:00:56,729 --> 00:00:58,929 Well, my friends, the stage is yours. 8 00:00:59,049 --> 00:00:59,969 Remember, enjoy. 9 00:01:00,570 --> 00:01:02,130 Big applause and let's do it. 10 00:01:08,310 --> 00:01:09,049 Good morning. 11 00:01:09,170 --> 00:01:13,430 We come from Gonzalo Fernandez de Córdoba School to show you the Green Hydro Ship. 12 00:01:14,849 --> 00:01:18,129 Did you know that there are 19,000 Icaruses in the world? 13 00:01:18,129 --> 00:01:24,049 Did you know that the 15 biggest pollutants mass up to 760 million cars on the planet? 14 00:01:24,049 --> 00:01:27,890 The port of Algeciras is the first Spanish port in terms of wood trapping. 15 00:01:27,890 --> 00:01:31,569 According to various sources, there have been some anarchism of Icaruses 16 00:01:31,569 --> 00:01:34,209 placing those pollutants more close to the atmosphere. 17 00:01:34,209 --> 00:01:38,450 This is causing the formation of combustion particles falling to the sea. 18 00:01:38,450 --> 00:01:41,090 Some years ago, the Guardian published an impressive fact. 19 00:01:41,090 --> 00:01:46,090 A single ship sailing across our seas may release the same amount of carbon dioxide as 50 million cars. 20 00:01:46,090 --> 00:01:51,090 In fact, as many scientific studies suggest, the European Commission estimates that sea's pollutant emissions 21 00:01:51,090 --> 00:01:56,090 cost 50,000 premature deaths and 60 billion euros of health expenses in the European Union annually. 22 00:01:56,090 --> 00:02:00,090 Apart from carbon dioxide, these ships release various pollutants that contribute to global warming. 23 00:02:00,090 --> 00:02:05,090 The World Cargo Fleet emits 450,000 tons of carbon dioxide, a gas that impacts the greenhouse effect. 24 00:02:05,090 --> 00:02:11,090 We wanted to design a ship that the endemic will have respect cases and the end harm our health or the environment. 25 00:02:11,090 --> 00:02:16,090 When we started to investigate we realized that most of the anticonvention hydrogen has the field of the future. 26 00:02:16,090 --> 00:02:20,090 To the side of our project we have used the 3D printer of our school. 27 00:02:20,090 --> 00:02:32,090 Thanks to the help of biologist Elena González-Burón we started to do research on the use of hydrogen as a fuel and also its advantages and disadvantages. 28 00:02:32,090 --> 00:02:39,090 The main advantage of hydrogen is that it is the most available source of energy on our planet, so we wouldn't risk running out of it. 29 00:02:39,090 --> 00:02:42,090 On the other hand, it is a very clean fuel and poses no threat to our planet. 30 00:02:42,090 --> 00:02:47,090 Regarding its disadvantages, we found it on nature, but we don't find it in a pure state. 31 00:02:47,090 --> 00:02:51,090 It is mixed up with other substances and it requires complex processes to separate it. 32 00:02:51,090 --> 00:02:57,090 We tried to find the ideal way to obtain hydrogen and we concluded that the best way was directly from water, 33 00:02:57,090 --> 00:02:59,090 a substance that makes 70% of our planet. 34 00:02:59,090 --> 00:03:04,090 But we have focused on how to take it directly from water as our motive is going to travel in it. 35 00:03:04,090 --> 00:03:11,090 This process is called electrolysis and consists basically of breaking the water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen sequentially. 36 00:03:11,090 --> 00:03:17,090 Thanks to the research done by Stanford University, it is now possible to produce hydrogen from marine water. 37 00:03:17,090 --> 00:03:25,090 The researchers found a way to avoid the marine water components from breaking the submerged channel, reducing the metal decomposition and protecting the atoms through electrolysis. 38 00:03:25,090 --> 00:03:29,090 To test all that, we built an environmentally friendly cargo ship. 39 00:03:29,090 --> 00:03:35,090 This ship should also be able to generate hydrogen fuel using solar energy, salt water and electrodes. 40 00:03:35,090 --> 00:03:42,090 This ship is called the Rachel Hill set. It has two functions, electrolysis and hydrolysis. 41 00:03:42,090 --> 00:03:46,090 To design our building, we have used the 3D printer of our school. 42 00:03:46,090 --> 00:03:51,090 We have created a model boat as part of the policy to build the different types of propellers. 43 00:03:51,090 --> 00:03:54,090 Vertical axis propellers, jet or excavator ones. 44 00:03:54,090 --> 00:03:59,090 With these patterns, we could easily collect water coming into the ship to produce hydrogen. 45 00:04:00,090 --> 00:04:03,090 Our ship has a central part with two endings. 46 00:04:04,090 --> 00:04:08,090 We have placed electrical battery in an upper compartment so we can get wet. 47 00:04:08,090 --> 00:04:12,090 Also, in the future, it will be an accumulator that collects the hydrogen produced. 48 00:04:12,090 --> 00:04:14,090 Everything works thanks to an Arduino board. 49 00:04:14,090 --> 00:04:19,089 Board becomes some core 2.0 that controls the energy and the inner parts of our ship. 50 00:04:19,089 --> 00:04:26,089 This board connects to our mobile phone via Bluetooth thanks to an app we have created with App Inventor that allows us to still respond. 51 00:04:26,089 --> 00:04:30,089 Every button sends word signals and our board takes action on receiving them. 52 00:04:30,089 --> 00:04:38,089 For example, when pressing the app arrow, our app sends the word move forward and on receiving that order, our board will make the two engines move forward. 53 00:04:38,089 --> 00:04:42,089 Our board has been programmed with big block as you can see here. 54 00:04:42,089 --> 00:04:45,089 On receiving each word signal, our board will take action. 55 00:04:45,089 --> 00:04:49,089 action we have taken into account that the engines are facing the same way we're getting them to turn 56 00:04:49,889 --> 00:04:53,009 you can see our ship works very well you can come here and try it 57 00:05:06,290 --> 00:05:21,279 big applause to me okay so while they're getting to work 58 00:05:23,759 --> 00:05:31,120 you guys did extraordinarily well wow i mean you went a little bit over time okay my colleagues 59 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:35,920 there were like you're going over time it's like you know what i have to push so many startups 60 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:42,480 because they went over time and you were six of you and you did incredibly well with the prototypes 61 00:05:42,480 --> 00:06:00,209 perfect english so please fantastic okay so we have victor here who's gonna be your feedback 62 00:06:00,209 --> 00:06:08,449 giver the feedback whisperer victor all yours so how do you feel now good happy 63 00:06:08,449 --> 00:06:12,449 Are you happy?
