Would you like your city to be lit by bioluminescent organisms?
The startup keeps the bacteria inside saltwater-filled tubes. This allows bacteria to circulate in what is essentially a luminous aquarium, where a combination of basic nutrients is given readily and the air is pumped through the water to provide oxygen.The light is produced by internal biochemical processes that are part of the organism's normal metabolism, which is why running it requires essentially no energy other than that required to manufacture the food the bacteria ingest.
The startup believes that bioluminescence produced by bacteria could be an energy-efficient, sustainable solution to easing our dependency on electricity for lighting, which is largely produced by burning fossil fuels.The entire process is dependent on living organisms, which is why it faces several hurdles that need to be overcome before it can be employed on a large scale. One shortcoming is that the process creates a fraction of the light.
