It is well known that many beneficial microbiological processes, especially bacterial processes, take place naturally and each different process involves the activity of different species/genera of bacteria. The speed of catalysis in the relevant bacteria is, however, also dependent on prevailing

The present invention relates to a method of detecting the presence or absence, and if present the identity of a Cryptococcus pathogen in a biological sample from a subject. The invention also provides for a kit for the detection and identification of a Cryptococcus pathogen in a biological sample

Biofiltration is the filtration of contaminated water using organic material to capture and biologically degrade contaminants. A biofilter comprises inorganic or organic filtering media such as rock, slag, sand, glass beads, peat or wood chips on which a biofilm develops when wastewater flows over

The Vapour-Based Passive Multistage Solar Desalination System offers a sustainable and efficient solution for desalinating water using solar energy. The system is designed to operate off-grid, utilizing solar heat to drive the desalination process, making it ideal for remote areas where access to

The Cleancolytic Reactor System developed at the Cape Peninsula University of Technology is a one-step waste water treatment system consisting of highly reactive nanoparticles immobilized in a specialised reactor system for the purpose of treating industrial wastewater. The system utilizes a
