Mexican scientists have developed a unique ‘nanobubble’ system using solar energy to clean up the polluted waters of Xochimilco, one of the few areas of the capital that still boasts canal networks dating back to Aztec times
MEXICO CITY, Aug 24 - Mexican scientists have developed a unique "nanobubble" system using solar energy to improve water quality in the canals of Mexico City's Xochimilco ecological zone, a popular tourist attraction.
A team of researchers from the Center for Research and Advanced Studies has developed a method using solar energy to activate a pump that sends cleansing "nanobubbles" into the water. "We've seen in the places that we have bubbled a good proliferation of the Montezuma frog," Rodriguez said, referring to one of Mexico's native amphibian species.
The nanobubble system enables local farmers "to be able to work on their chinampas and make them productive by having a cleaner environment and conditions," Rodriguez said.1/5
