British scientists have created a new way to charge smartphones - using urine.
英国科学家发明了一种为智能手机充电的新方式——利用尿液。
Researchers have revealed a new system which transforms urine into electricity using a microbial fuel cell.
研究人员表示,这一新系统会通过一个微生物燃料电池,将尿液转换为电力。
Just over half a litre of urine is enough for six hours of charge time, which can power a smartphone for three hours.
只需要半升的尿液,就能够充电六小时,而这能为智能手机提供三个小时的续航时间。
The average toilet break produces around 600ml of urine.
人们平均每次上厕所能产生约600毫升的尿液。
Researchers at the University of the West of England hope the technology will eventually allow people to stay connected when off-grid.
西英格兰大学的研究人员希望,这项技术最终将会使人们能够在断电时,依然保持通信。
Professor Ioannis Ieropoulos, Director of the Bristol Bioenergy Centre, said: 'This project is all about generating electricity from waste material.
布里斯托尔生物能源中心的主任扬尼斯·耶罗普洛斯教授表示:“这项工程致力于将废弃材料转化为电力。
'In other words, turning waste into something really, really useful.
