The final competition of the Google Science Fair 2015 was held on the 21st of September in Mountain View (California), in the main headquarters of Google Corporation. 20 projects of young scientists from all around the world were presented at this prestigious competition. The finalists represented 10 countries.

All projects are focused on finding the best answers/solutions for the existing problems in the world.

It includes the method for detecting impurities in the fuel, production of biodiesel and substance for storing hydrogen from waste of chicken feathers and water purifying method using corncob.

Anela Arifi (18) and Ilda Ismaili (17), are students of the International High School (Bosna Sema) in Tuzla and the finalists of the Google Science Fair 2015. Unfortunately, this time they were not as lucky as before, and they didn’t manage to make some significant result with their project.

Their mentor Aydan Meydan won the award “Inspiring Educator Award”, for exceptional work and assistance on the realization of the project. The award is 10,000 USD for school equipment from Google and 5,000 USD worth scientific equipment from Lego Education.

Description of the project that Google included on the final competition is that it is a two-reactor system for production of hydrogen storage material and biodiesel from waste chicken feathers.
