“…Biogenic resources are drawing growing attention because of their sustainability. Some biogenic ingredients are recyclable and have possibility to be achieved from waste compounds, which substantially decreases their production expenditure [40][41][42][43] . More significantly, biogenic resources have the possibility to be manipulated to include definite catalytic features, making them an effectual choice for selective procedures [44,45] .…”

Water splitting has been one of the potential techniques as a clean and renewable energy resource for the fulfillment of world energy demands. One of the major aspects of this procedure is the exploitation of efficient and inexpensive electrocatalysts due to the fact that the water oxidation procedure is accompanied by a delayed reaction. In this research, ZnO-CoFe2O4 nanostructure was successfully synthesized via the green method and green resources from cardamom seeds and ginger peels for oxygen evolution reaction (OER). The modified Glassy carbon electrode (GCE) with ZnO-CoFe2O4 is effective for the electrochemical water oxidation interaction since it has sufficient electrical strength and excellent catalytic performance. The creation of rice-like and small granular structures of ZnO-CoFe2O4 nano-catalysts was confirmed by characterization methods such as XRD, FESEM, EDS and MAP. According to the achieved results, in the electrolysis of water, with in-cell voltage of 1.40 V and 50 mA cm–2 for current density in a 0.1 M KOH electrolyte and OER only has 170 mV overpotentials.
