I guess those plastic bottles full of urine I always see scattered along the highway while I’m sampling are gonna start diminishing...
Who wants to bet if this ended up true that some organization would step up and declare them off limits because using them would exterminate the rare Asphaltic Piss Algae that grows in them after a few months???

'We do not need to reinvent the wheel as there are already electrolysers being used in different applications.' She believes the only the thing that would hamper the process would be the presence of a lot of salt.Isnt Salt the electrolyte?

"Botte used electrolysis to break the molecule apart, developing an inexpensive new nickel-based electrode to selectively and efficiently oxidise the urea".
Oh man, the secret must be out-I read somewhere that it is good to buy nickel and China is buying lots of it. Now it makes sense!
To: Ladysmith
I am willing to bet you did not know that.
