Urine fuel cells or will significantly reduce costs

This source of fuel is very reliable and is the reuse of waste.

A microbial fuel cell (MCF) is a device that uses microorganisms to directly convert chemical energy in organic matter into electrical energy. Recently, researchers from the University of Bath, the Queen Mary University of London and the Bristol Bioenergy Center jointly launched a microbial fuel cell that uses urine as a fuel to generate electricity.

About 10.5 billion liters of urine is produced every day, which is enough to fill 4,200 Olympic swimming pools. In the current situation, urine is used as a large amount of waste. If it is allowed to invade the water system, it will destroy the ecological environment, and treating it from waste water will require a lot of money and energy. For example, in the United States, the power consumed by a sewage treatment plant accounts for 1.5% of the total hairdressing power. So, if there is a technology that allows urine to no longer be a big energy consumer, and it becomes a large capacity after being used, isn't it a good thing? Although most of us will put it on the label of waste, scientists still hope that one day they can use urine to generate electricity and then use it in cars, houses and cities. The cost of this urine-powered fuel cell, currently developed in the United Kingdom, is only 1 to 2 pounds per unit. At the same time, this source of fuel is very reliable and it is the reuse of waste.

Dr. Mirella Lorenzo of the University of Bath said: "Microbial fuel cells can play an important role in the triple challenge of finding safe, affordable and environmentally sensitive energy. This urine powered fuel cell will be Difficult to choose 'provide solutions.'
