Basic Description


This year, HP takes the lab work one step further by establishing a simple expanded process flow. This flow includes the raw material (intake ) , bio-desalination, cell-water separation and further processes(/application). How does this established? Every step is not be considered through a single angle but a combination thought of several HP projects.

100%


Sea vs Brackish water

Description: We explore the differences between seawater and brackish water in desalination process. Based on that, we'll explain why we think seawater has more potential in the future and how our project will help pushing this trend.

Keyword: The raw material (intake) , Bio-desalination

Salt & Heavy metal

Description: We take out a collaboration study of the combination of desalination process and seawater restoration (heavy-metal) . This study explain its theoretically advantage and matters need special attention when carrying out in the reality.

Keyword: The raw material (intake ) , Further processes(/application)

Bio- vs RO

Description: We paid a visit to a major company producing RO membrane, the main component of common desalination process. Based on the visit, the further study and communication has done, including the discussion about the differences between our project and RO method, as well as the possibility of cooperation between two kinds of technology.

Cell-water separation

Description: This is the most important process that is related to safety. Our design is an single-use product. Yet, in separation study, we designed both single-use separation as well as long-term use separation method. Furthermore, we also explained how single-used algae can be used further for producing valuable sub-product. The inspiration comes from algae cleanup process in the lake and river.

Keyword: Cell-water separation

Public and government

Description: Public and government acceptance , two different approach to gain social trust, are considered in our project. First, we did testing activities to see what they really interested in or worry about. From this, we build two different strategy and relating materials.

Communication with other iGEM tea Description: This year we connected with other iGEM team through several small-scale visits and meet-ups. One of our major collaboration team is Nanjing iGEM team. We summarize our collaboration in this part as well as communication with other team.
