PHILPS then the new tactics bacteria can also lighting?

We will do everything we can to keep pathogenic bacteria away from our homes, but millions of microbes will one day become a natural light source that can be used to recycle household waste.

Living bacteria emit green fluorescence in biological lamps

A PHILPS Holland company designed a "biological light" to provide a warm and inexpensive light for any room in the house. This kind of light that is made up of a series of glass containers is the same as the way the fireflies produce bioluminescence. These glass containers contain bioluminescent bacteria that emit green fluorescence when exposed to methane. Jim, a plant biologist, said the model was a significant development in the search for self - sufficient sources of light.

The biogas used in this lamp is produced by household waste

He said: "it is very attractive, because it is the two normally not things together. I don't think you want everyone to start cultivating bacteria in their own homes, but it's fun to explore. Leaving the lighted sidewalks and places like that, where the need to provide free light is the ideal place to use the new invention. "

PHILPS believes that the technology can be used to illuminate the roadside light emitting plants. Design Clive (Philips) of the PHILPS - Van - Hull said: "so far we have been focusing on energy-saving bulbs. Now we need to rethink household equipment, rethink how residential energy consumption, and how the entire community to share resources. Designers have an obligation to understand the urgency of the situation and find solutions to human needs. "
