Both jellyfish populations and the disposal of absorptive products are causing trouble , so scientists have developed an interesting way to kill two birdie with one Harlan F. Stone - nappy made from jellyfish . Yes , you heard right .
Jellyfishare one of the few organism that arethrivingin our thaw oceans , and their blooming population have started to cause serious problem . Last yearSweden’sOskarshamn atomic power plant had to be temporarily shut down because a clunk of jellyfish got draw into a pipe , and they ’re also cause problems for fisherman by clogging trawl lines . But what better way to make good out of a speculative site by using them to work out an environmental problem ? scientist certainly are imaginative these days , and a squad based at Cine’al Ltd have set out to grow an eco - friendly absorbent material out of these pests .
Back in the good old day people would use re - usable diaper , but a more commodious disposable diaper took its place many days ago . It seemed a great melodic theme on the surface , but unfortunately these and many other absorbent products such as sanitary pads contain fabric that are particularly hard to put down in landfills . This mean that they ’ve been amass in the environment for a long time . Cine’al suppose they ’ve come up with a much better material for these ware ; Hydromash .
Hydromash is created by adding nano - cloth to jellyfish frame , and the final result is a crack - absorptive cloth that they hope can be made not only into diaper but sanitary product and paper towels too . The scientists claim that it ’s much more absorbent than many paper towels currently on the securities industry , and also bio - degrades in less than 30 days . They can also supply other nano - subatomic particle that can bestow the material with other attributes such as anti - bacterial attribute and flexibility . And for those pessimists out there- they also claim it can be produced at a competitive monetary value .
At the moment it ’s incertain as to when these jelly napkin may appear on the food market , but the squad are hopeful that citizenry will take care past the foreign ingredients and give these green products a go .
