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.
New Tech Helps Simplify Desalination Process
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.
