Hydrogen from Pee?
Okay, so this news is green but a bit weird. It seems that scientists are attempting to harness a lot of hydrogen from urine. They say that taking hydrogen from urine is a lot easier than doing so with water. This is because of urea, a component of urine, which scientists say has four hydrogen atoms and two nitrogen atoms compared to wat’er which has only two hydrogen atoms. Urine also requires 97 percent less electricity to release hydrogen from the urea molecules.
Wow, I just hope they’ll find a way to get the urine odor out.
