Making water out of air

A group of students from Ghent University is currently working on an innovative project that tackles the problem of drinking water scarcity. This project, called "Dewpal," will be their entry in The International Genetically Engineered Machine (iGEM) Competition. Dewpal involves the designing and printing (using a special filament that allows for binding with external proteins) of a unique 3D shape. The combination of 3D printing and synthetic biology, i.e., functionalized 3D-printed structures, has many potential applications.
