There's a bacterium that can absorb compounds rich in toxic metals and extract gold from them, producing tiny gold nuggets. The bacterium in question is called Cupriavidus metallidurans and lives in soil rich in toxic elements. Gold Is A Byproduct Of Heavy Metal Metabolism In Cupriavidus metallidurans. Its ability to detoxify gold complexes by transforming them into metallic gold was discovered in 2009. Geobiological Cycling of Gold: Cupriavidus metallidurans, Delftia acidovorans and Salmonella typhimurium, have developed biochemical responses to deal with highly toxic gold complexes. Cupriavidus metallidurans was shown to survive in various mesophilic metal-contaminated environments such as mining sites for gold, copper and zinc because it possesses an abundance of transition metal efflux systems and other heavy metal resistance determinants

Coca-Cola and Slingshot water device. Slingshot can produce roughly 30 liters of water an hour using no more energy than required by a standard handheld hair dryer. Eventually, the partnership is expected to add more than half a billion liters of clean drinking water per year to the global water supply. He says that Slingshot dovetails with Coke’s long-term plans to replenish 100 percent of the water used in its beverages and their production by 2020. Coca Cola aim to return a cumulative total of 2 trillion liters of water to nature and communities globally, between 2021-2030.
