Nepal Explores Green Urea Production Using Hydroelectricity and Cement Industry Byproducts

Nepal is exploring the production of green urea using hydroelectricity and carbon dioxide from the cement industry to address the perennial shortage of chemical fertilizers. Associate Professor Biraj Singh Thapa is researching hydrogen technology's feasibility, suggesting that integrating hydropower and captured CO2 from industries like Udayapur Cement could yield significant urea production. This approach aims to reduce carbon emissions and utilize wasted electricity, with potential for private sector investment and public-private partnerships.
