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.
