The Adult Diaper consists of a reusable outer casing and a disposable, biodegradable inner lining that can be easily removed. There is a growing need for affordable, well-designed, and absorbent adult diapers for the elderly market. The cost for individuals or care homes is high, especially in terms

Biosurfactants produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa SB24 (rhamnolipid congeners), Bacillus amyloliquefaciens ST34 (surfactin and bacillomycin L analogues and homologues) and pigmented (P1) and non-pigmented (NP1) Serratia marcescens strains (serratamolide and glucosamine derivative homologues) were

Planktonic or free-living microbes naturally adhere to the sensing surface of the BioTrac system. These biofilms are representative of the physical biofouling that occurs on surfaces in the test environment. The microbes produce carbon dioxide (CO₂) as a byproduct of metabolic activity. The rate of

The antimicrobial solution consists of a novel polymer featuring quaternary ammonium groups that provide consistent, broad-spectrum antimicrobial action. When applied to various substrates, such as textiles and construction materials, the polymer bonds covalently, creating a stable, long-lasting

The innovation describes a process for removing lead from a liquid such as contaminated water. The liquid is brought into contact with a PbrD protein which binds lead ions present in the liquid. The bound lead ions can then be recovered, for example as an insoluble salt or compound such as lead

CloudHarvest ™ is an innovative solution that tackles the rising frequency of droughts and water shortages caused by climate change. It offers a sustainable way to influence weather patterns and water availability in vulnerable regions. During severe droughts, cloud seeding has been proven as an

AquaCarbon™ introduces a high-performance membrane technology designed for membrane distillation desalination. The innovation integrates multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) into polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes to create a robust, highly hydrophobic, and porous structure capable of

The AquaHarvest™ System is an innovative water generation technology that produces liquid water directly from air. It uses an air current generator and a specially designed flow body with a constricted section that cools incoming air to near its dew point. As the air exits the outlet, water
