U invention could have big impact on world sewage
A bizarre contraption has just been put together in the northern Utah town of Plain City. It's the first full-scale test of a major invention from the University of Utah. If it works, it could have worldwide significance and will save people here lots of money on their sewer bills.
It looks like alien mushrooms sprouting in a sewage lagoon, but it may be the wave of the future in sewage treatment.
Don Weston, Plain City director of environmental services, said, "The good bacteria stays in there and just continues to eat, eat, eat and propagate and propagate."

Seamount Solar: Turns Saline or Polluted Water Into Ultra-Pure Water
October 31st, 2009
Seamount Solar is a product that augments a clean-powered hydrogen-transmitted energy system by making ultra-pure water, in quantity, from saline or polluted water evaporated and collected by solar power and condensed by the cooler non-potable source. Hydrogen and oxygen produced by electrolysis burns to power the flow of clean vapor and incinerate toxins so that the system provides for energy storage and transmission and for clean water for a thirsty world.
Featured Invention at the Colorado Inventor Showcase 2009

Solar Water Disinfection Could Kill Even More Germs with New High-Tech Coating
Solar water disinfection is an idea so simple, it hurts. Now a Georgia Tech scientist may be on to a new high-tech twist that could make this no-cost, zero emission ultraviolet (UV) water disinfection method even more quick and effective.
Solar disinfection is a proven method of killing germs in drinking water by exposing it to direct sunlight in a clear plastic or glass bottle. Dr. Jaehong Kim of the Georgia Institute of Technology has just been awarded a $100,000 innovation grant by the Water Environment Research Foundation for his work in developing a new coating that could be applied to bottles to shor

The average American uses 7,665 gallons of water each year just flushing the toilet.
BioLet's line of waterless composting toilets are environmentally friendly and economical. Nature and technology combine to make BioLet composting toilets as effective and easy to use as a traditional flush toilet.

Wal-Mart Requires Suppliers to Reveal Environmental Impacts
Product labels will list emissions, waste and water ratings
Wal-Mart is asking its top-tier suppliers to reply by Oct. 1 to 15 uniform questions that measure greenhouse gas emissions, solid waste production, water consumption and production ethics. The sustainability index will create a more transparent supply chain and drive product innovation, CEO Mike Duke told 1,500 employees and suppliers gathered at the company's Bentonville, Ark., headquarters today.
We will help create a new retail standard for the 21st century -- there is no question about it," Duke promised

IBM Wades Into Water Management
by Jaymi Heimbuch, San Francisco, California on 03.13.09
Well, just as Google didn't want to get left behind when it comes to the smart grid, IBM doesn't want to get left behind when it comes to water management. We knew the company is paying attention to water issues, considering a representative was on the water crisis panel at the Cleantech conference, but now they're announcing some big news that shows they're diving right in.
