GLOBAL ENERGY PROBLEM

Current energy sources are: 

  • Not scalable from personal to industrial levels 
  • Not able to be used by everybody 
  • Not sustainable for the next generations 
  • Not viable for locations around the world

GLOBAL BATTERY PROBLEM

Current battery sources are: 

  • Not sustainable for long periods of time 
  • Not safe for the environment and atmosphere
  • Not available at low prices 
  • Not renewable or recyclable

OUR SOLUTION

MICROBIAL FUEL CELL SOLUTION

Internal Process

  1. Input growth medium/waste
  2. Bacteria consumption and reproduction
  3. Respiration of electrons 
  4. Capture electric current in membrane and wires 
  5. Consistent production of electricity and hydrogen
