Yes, 14-year-old Duro-Aina Adebola, Akindele Abiola, Faleke Oluwatoyin and 15-year-old Bello Eniola created a urine-powered electricity generator.
In the city of Lagos, which is located in Nigeria, passes Maker Faire Africa. This is more than the usual exhibition of startups: here new technologies are not only demonstrated and discussed, but they also find a start in life.
Four girls, instead of inventing another super-social-cloud network, invented a way to get electricity from urine.
How it works:
Urine is placed in the electrolyzer, which releases hydrogen from it. Then the hydrogen passes through a water filter and enters the gas cylinder. In the gas cylinder with the help of borax moisture is completely removed from hydrogen. This purified hydrogen is placed in a generator, and as a result, 1 liter of urine gives 6 hours of electricity.
It remains only to wish them good luck. I hope the invention will find its investors, and science will open its doors for girls.
