During our research we found out that bacteria can produce electricity. This energy is generated when bacteria break down organic matter contained in wastewater. On top of this, microorganisms even clean the water during this process.

Microbial Energy

“Why would we still use polluting energy sources, if there is a renewable one, which cleans pollution?”

Our research started with a fascination: Biodesign, A Cross-Pollination of Nature, Science and Creativity. A search to the integration of natural processes in a design process.

Our goal was to amaze people by showing the possibilities of our waste. We believe by using natural processes and efficiency of ecosystems, waste doesn’t cost money but will gain money.
