- The biosynthetic purification system is part of an
international project and is powered by solar photovoltaic
energy - It is developed by scientists and students from
different universities members of the Valencia-iGEM team -
Eurener has also participated in the fourth conference on
renewable energy and the first on new sustainable roads
organized by the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV) The
Valencia-iGEM team, comprising scientists and students from the
Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV), Catholic University of
Valencia (UCV) and the University of Valencia (UV) of various
degrees (Biology, Marine Sciences, Biotechnology, Industrial
Engineering and Chemistry Engineering) and coordinated by the
Interdisciplinary Modelling Group (InterTech) of the UPV and the
Energesis Chair of the UCV have developed a biological system to
disinfect contaminated water. The system is framed in the
specialty of synthetic biology, has biological parts that
replace the electronic ones. The set needs 60 to 80 W of ele
