I have no idea how far the implications of the study in this article might go, but if yeast can purify something humans desperately need to live? That’s absolutely amazing.
The implications are massive too, as yeast is cheap. Obviously there are other concerns-one still has to remove yeast from the water, and the scale at which these things would have to be built isn’t small but damn if it isn’t cool.
