Engineers recently developed carbon cloth electrodes to efficiently remove boron from seawater, simplifying the desalination process and reducing costs.This new method eliminates the need for costly post-treatment chemicals, enhancing sustainability and cutting costs by up to 15% while making seawater safer for drinking and agriculture.Researchers Converting Fatbergs Into Fragrant Oil for Perfume
Researchers at the University of Edinburgh are developing a novel method to convert fatbergs into fragrance compounds used in perfumes and shampoos.
By engineering bacteria to break down the fatbergs, the process offers an innovative recycling solution to a costly and malodorous problem affecting sewer systems worldwide.
