MC2 Post 1552 Better Bio-Batteries from Itty-Bitty Bacteria

From:   http://www.businessinsider.com

New research into electricity-conducting bacteria could lead to environmentally friendly "bio-batteries" that could create energy, be used as factories for biological products, or clean out 
heavy metals from contaminated soils.

Researchers at the University of East Anglia in the U.K., and the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in Washington, discovered how a special type of bacteria known as Shewanella oneidensis, conducts an electrical charge when it's around heavy metals.

Additional Resources

Looking to get even more deeply involved in the Raspberry Pi community? Here are a few places

to look for more useful information.

    Raspberry Pi Project
    Raspberry Pi Forums
    Raspberry Pi Wiki
    Adafruit's Raspberry Pi Projects Page
    Element 14's Raspberry Pi Resource Page
    The Raspberry Pi Education Manual (PDF)
    The Pi Store (Here's how to get it built-in to Raspbian)
    The University of Cambridge Raspberry Pi Tutorials
    Unofficial Raspberry Pi Forums

These projects and resources are just the beginning. Remember, if there's a job that a mini computer can automate, or a task that you wish you could use a computer for but need one small enough to attach to something else or fit into a tiny space, the Raspberry Pi is probably a good option, and it's easy to configure and set up. Use the tools we've given you so far this week and you'll be ready to tackle almost anything.Additional Resources
