Shining Sanctifier
Description:
Water, the origin of life, is the necessary component of our daily life. As the progress of modern industry and life, especially in petrochemical engineering and agriculture, large amount of sewage which contains inorganic nitrogen has been produced. It is the chief culprit which leads to the red tide.
Various kinds of means have been developed to dispose nitrite and ammonium which are the main contaminants of this type of effluent. One of them is anaerobic ammonium oxidation bacteria (anammox) which can convert the fomite in the water into nitrogen.
NH4+ + NO2- → N2 + 2H2O, ΔGo = -357 kJ/mol-1
However, the enrichment of the bacterial strain takes much time and it is very sensible to oxygen. Its nature leads to the numerous obstacles in the industrial application.
Our goal is to design a wastewater cleansing system which can absorb the pollutant efficiently while transform it into light. We decided to use E.coli to design a bacterium that can digest the nitrite and ammonium in its interior using the disposal system from the anammox. We named it Shining Sanctifier. This new star will overcome the traditional issues and be adopted in the sewage treatment system on a large scale while it can also be made into landscape lamp in the future.
