Deshusses Awarded Grant from Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation

The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has awarded a Reinvent the Toilet Challenge grant to a team led by Dr. Deshusses! We will be using supercritical water oxidation to convert sewage to harmless byproducts and clean water with minimal or no energy input (see picture below of before and after treatment).
