Scientists of University of East Anglia came with an idea of charging the smartphones with using the bacteria from human feces.


The research was focused on the how electrons cross bacterial proteins.

Explaining this a researcher said that both human and animal waste contain bacteria which breathe minerals of iron much like we breathe oxygen.

And an electric charge is released in the breathing process.

This charge can eventually be used for different purposes – means charging the portable devices such as mobiles, laptops etc.
