Pcb Model
PCB sensor model
Introduction
After considering the water flux and polluant motion in our sponge, we investigated the sensing power of our bacteria.
Our construction
The PCB pollution have been identify as a major problem in the ocean.
We wanted to tackle this issue by using a sensing device integrated into a synbiotic bacteria of sponges [link to description].
This approach raise few questions:
- How does our device behave in presence of PCB?
- What are the lowest or highest PCB concentration detectable?
- Considering the symbiosis with the sponge, how could our device be disturbed?
