This Amazing Microalgae System Turns Pollution Into Oxygen (Video)

-
The challenge of making oxygen out of resources readily available has been a goal of researchers for many years. A goal that has now been met by BiomiTech, who won the ultimate award in the innovation category at the Contamination Expo Series 2018 organized in Birmingham, England.
The BioUrban 2.0 system uses microalgae to turn contaminants (carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxide) in oxygen.
The Mexican company is proud of the invention, and it’s 100% Mexican. Jaime Ferrer is the founding partner of BiomiTech had an interview with Milenio and used the opportunity to talk about the system.
According to him, a single BioUrban system has the power to carry out the photosynthesis process and release oxygen equivalent to the oxygen released by 300 trees. Trees won’t be replaced, and the systems may be placed near roads and intersections.
The purification system is four meters high and it uses a steel casing. The apex is three-meter wide and has 500 liters of microalgae which is enough to filter up to 99.7% of the particles. Its shape resembles a tree.
That’s not all. The system also has a sensor to monitor the quality of air. There’s wireless internet capability that transmits the data it collects. Waste microalgae can be used as a raw material in the production of biogas and biofuels.
The first system was installed in Puebla in 2017. Hopefully, the invention will be installed throughout the country. The company won the Latam Edge Awards which supports the development of Latin American technology companies in the UK.
The filtration system has the power to capture more than 13 million cubic meters of air. It releases oxygen equivalent to the oxygen released by 368 young eucalyptus trees within a year.

by  N.Morgan Cannabidiol  is a phytocannabinoid discovered in 1940. It is one of some 113 identified cannabinoids in cannabis plants and accounts for up to 40% of the plant’s extract. In 2018, clinical research on cannabidiol included preliminary studies of anxiety, cognition, movement disorders, and pain.  Cannabidiol can be taken into the body in multiple ways, including by inhalation of cannabis smoke or vapor, as an aerosol spray into the cheek, and by  mouth . It may be supplied as  CBD oil  containing only CBD as the active ingredient (no included tetrahydrocannabinol[THC] or terpenes), a full-plant CBD-dominant hemp extract oil, capsules, dried cannabis, or as a prescription liquid solution.  CBD  does not have the same  psychoactivity  as THC and may change the effects of THC on the body if both are present. As of 2018, the mechanis...

by  N.Morgan For decades the public was told that Q-tips are beneficial to our ears. Medical Q-tips remove excess wax from the ear, causing a sweet tingling sensation. However, although seemingly innocent, cotton Q-tips can be a great threat to your ears. Cotton buds are first of all, used improperly. There is no clear instruction on how to use a Q-tip rightfully, which ultimately leads to many people experiencing ear damage. Oftentimes serious, Q-tips are known to cause infections in the ear, aggravating the situation even further. What’s more, some now urge that Q-tips may be entirely responsible for an unwelcome brain infection. The Case that Changed the Idea of Q-tips A story on ear infections has really exposed the dangers of using Q-tips. Namely, a man went to the emergency room, following a bad seizure. The man explained how he experienced pain lasting for a couple of hours, followed by a discharge from his ear. At one point the man also lost some of...
