Biotechnology

Biotechnology uses organisms to solve problems. In this case, the problem was a company that needed to supplement a natural iron-rich spring water product. The water which was selling faster than the source at the old health spa at Trefriw, North Wales could supply. I used microbes that prefer to live below pH 3 to replicate the process far more efficiently in a laboratory bioreactor, giving the company a system they could use to add to the natural spring when production dropped to low.
