High-Level Project Summary
We developed a superhero character named Kpacha and his partner Hapa, Kpacha's power is the digestion of organic waste, while Hapa's power is to eat plastic, both are a team. Our project solves the challenge posed in such a way that Kpacha has the quality of consuming organic waste as the earth does naturally, since she is a superheroine of the earth so she can do it without difficulty, Hapa being a giant bacterium called Ideonella sakaiensis can feed on PET, which is one of the most used and common plastics. In our creativity together they form a great team that is responsible for helping the environment to the best of their ability.
