Project SAPPHIRE

Project SAPPHIRE is MCC's project team working to build a device to extract carbon and hydrogen gas from urban wastewater. Nurturing microbes under a slight electrical current and repurposing calcium-rich industrial wasteproducts kickstarts a chain reaction that allows the device to carry out both processes simultaneously.

Our weekly meetings are on Tuesdays at 7pm. Contact dbjohn@umich.edu or bccoff@umich.edu if you are interested in joining!
