The Liquid Tree also known as Liquid3
The Liquid Tree, also known as Liquid3, is an innovative project designed by Dr. Ivan Spasojevic and his team at the Institute for Multidisciplinary Research at the University of Belgrade. This urban photo-bioreactor uses microalgae to efficiently remove CO2 and produce oxygen through photosynthesis. It's designed to replace the function of trees in heavily polluted urban areas where planting real vegetation isn't viable. The Liquid Tree is a glass tank embedded into a structure that acts as a bench, complete with utilities like charging ports. It's powered by solar panels and can filter out heavy metal contaminants in the air. The project has been recognized as an innovative solution for climate-smart urban development.
