In constructing a process and device that uses a photochemistry to break down or rather transform plastics into useful byproducts such as water and hydrogen, it becomes necessary to delve into of course photonics, chemistry, physics, earth science and of course experimentation, application of the concepts in a learn-by-doing style. Climate action is of courseContinue reading “Studio Shangri-La Research Notes: Pathways From Plastic To Water”

A Philosophy Of Amortality, Inspired By XPRIZE Healthspan
The majestic Banyan tree, symbolic of eternal life and enlightenment, is considered immortal because it grows aerial roots that become supplementary trunks. Quite simply, it has cleverly adapted to prolonging its life, and in the process houses a lot of other creatures. “Amortality” literally means “not subject to death.” And is the Banyan amortal? NoContinue reading “A Philosophy Of Amortality, Inspired By XPRIZE Healthspan”
Tech + Environment: Plasma Arc Gasification & Vaporization / Sublimation Trashcan + Receptacles — Revolutionizing Waste Management
I have a rudimentary design of a trashcan that uses a laser in the process of vaporizing / gasifying or sublimating waste to either produce ideal byproducts like even Oxygen or Water, or quite “simply” keep infinitely re-energizing the process of the can! Fortunately these methods are up & coming in waste treatment plants. ButContinue reading “Tech + Environment: Plasma Arc Gasification & Vaporization / Sublimation Trashcan + Receptacles — Revolutionizing Waste Management”
