Microelectrochemical Sensor and Plating System to Detect and Remove Cadmium, Copper, Iron, Lead, Nickel, and Zinc Ions from Polluted Water
 |
Microelectrochemical Sensor and Plating System to Detect and Remove Cadmium, Copper, Iron, Lead, Nickel, and Zinc Ions from Polluted Water Elina has a patent pending on her revolutionary micro-sensor. Whereas conventional sensors can detect only one element, this invention can detect six metallic ion pollutants collectively and independently. The invention consists of two basic parts: the microelectrochemical sensor which detects the metals, and the plating system that removes them, consequently cleaning the water. |
