Power Flushing Eco-Friendly Turbines
Flushing a toilet does not really produce anything for us other than sanitation in our bathrooms. But while we underestimate such a practice, a new device was developed where rushing water will be used as another alternative source of energy.
Hydroelectric power is another source of energy that can help improve the energy demands we all need in our homes. Finding out an innocent way of making it occur in our homes has been developed and it all can be instigated by a simple flush of a toilet.
Electronics giant Philips is all set to create a sensor bed that keeps a close watch on the health of heart failure patients, a project being funded by the European Union.
One of the aims of the ‘My Heart’ project is to help spot heart problems several days before they become life threatening, reports said.
