SERDANG, Jan 24 – The CO₂ Mortar team, represented by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nur Hafizah Abd Khalid and Assoc. Prof. Dr. Azman Mohamed from the Faculty of Civil Engineering (FKA), Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM), together with Ts. Dr. Adrina Rosseira Abu Talip from Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) and Ts. Dr. Syed Mohd Saiful Azwan Syed Hamzah from Universiti Malaysia Terengganu (UMT), has achieved a significant national milestone by advancing to the Grand Final of INNOVATHON Season 3 and securing a Top 5 position (4th place).
NNOVATHON Season 3 is a reality television programme organised by Astro, in collaboration with the Ministry of Economy, the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MOSTI), and other related government agencies. The programme showcases high-impact local innovations with strong potential to contribute to Malaysia’s socio-economic development and sustainability agenda.
The CO₂ Mortar innovation was initially shortlisted among the Top 56 innovations out of more than 2,032 nationwide participants during the audition stage of INNOVATHON Season 3. The team demonstrated consistent excellence throughout the competition by progressing through multiple evaluation rounds and delivering strong performances up to Week 6 of the programme, highlighting the innovation’s technical robustness, scalability, and readiness for real-world application.
