Caption
To treat both kinds of water, the researchers devised an ingenious solution; they used microbes to not only drive the treatment process, but also to recover some valuable nutrients out of the wastewater at the same time. The system was created from polyacrylic reactors containing two chambers, which were separated by an ion-exchange membrane and equipped with three electrodes.
