The BioEnergy Team, led by Ioannis Ieropoulos of the Bristol Robotics Laboratory (BRL) in Britain, are hoping to profit from working with [um, urine].

They have developed a new technique to turn urine into electrical power—or “urine-tricity” as they call it. People around the world produce an estimated 6.4 trillion litres of urine every year.

BRL, a collaboration between the University of Bristol and the University of the West of England, want to make the most of this abundant resource. At the core of urine-tricity are microbial fuel cells (MFCs), which contain live microbes. When urine flows through an MFC the microbes consume it as part of their normal metabolic process. This, in turn, frees electrons. Electrodes within the cell gather these electrons and when they are connected to an external circuit a current is generated.

Microbial Homes

In this day and age we are increasingly confronted sustainable living with the appeal. Therefore should Particularly in urban areas of the compost heap in the apartment are. Hard to imagine. But with ‘Microbial Homes’ is now proven that green living can take place in a small space and does not have to give up style.Hand in hand they can change our lifestyle.

During the Dutch Design Week (DDW) five kitchen concepts of the Dutch group were Philips and the Vision of Design and Innovation Team Director Clive van Heerden presented. All models are based on the basic idea to work as a biological machine. What we normally throw in the trash, is in the ‘Microbial Homes’ recycled, filtered or processed further. The goal is to combine energy, food preservation, waste, electricity supply, a healthy lifestyle and design so as to obtain the maximum benefit. The all-rounder of kitchen islands even manages methane (fuel gas) of solid bathroom waste and vegetable peelings to produce and reduce using plastic molds. Thus giving the ‘Microbial Homes’, as cyclical ecosystems, almost everyone the opportunity to live sustainably - including visual added value.
