Creating a closed-loop system where water is scarce, the NEWgenerator can treat wastewater from portable toilets and recycle clean water back for toilet flushing, thereby enabling a more hygienic and convenient flush toilet experience for users. Previously, waste could only be stored in a tank or pit latrine. /engineering/news-room/patents-for-humanity.aspxResearch and InnovationCollege of Engineering,Daniel Yeh,Patents/news/2020/nasa-testing-usf-technology-for-possible-use-on-the-moon.aspxA technology created at Å·ÃÀÈý¼¶Æ¬ could help enable the establishment of a permanent presence on the moon.
