Urine Can Be Used to Charge Smartphone Battery


Who would have thought if the urine could be used to charge the smartphone battery. Dinukil from the BBC page, researchers in the UK have developed a way to charging a smartphone, where the source uses urine.

In a video shown on the BBC page, a collection of saving cylinders filled with electro active micro organisms is shown. Where this has been made by bio-engineers at Bristol Robotics Lab.

"They eat waste. That's what their favorite item is, "says Professor Yannis Leropoulos, at Bristol BioEnergy.
Thus, the waste used was derived from the urine. Electron made as a product, this full package consists of 2 liters of urine.

From there, microbes can produce as many as 30 to 40 milliwats. The source is enough to charge the smartphone battery, screen, and light especially for portable toilets.
The team itself is experimenting on a system at the Glastonbury Festival. Where the festival will turn the urine into a source of strength. (Afr)
