Just One Cup Of Water For This Washing Machine!
As a homemaker so conscious of budgets, expenses and making household chores easier and as an eco-conscious individual, the following would actually be very good news.
Researchers and British inventors at the University of Leeds in the UK are said to perfecting a washing machine that offers one really nifty feature: the ability to wash and clean clothes using just one cup of water!!!
Using brand new technology, this cleaning machine, developed by Xeros, will supposedly make use of plastic beads which will work to absorb the dirt. The cup of water would have to be very hot, so that its water vapors will turn these plastic beads into the power cleaners its supposed to be.
The beads should also work to remove stains like coffee and lipstick, aside from give the clothes its freshly laundered smell. What’s more, these beads can be reused over a certain period of time.
The technology of this Xeros washing machine works like that of the Dyson vacuum cleaner which became a commercial product in the 90′s. If the Xeros is fully developed and marketed, it is expected to reduce and save “billions of liters of water”….so, great for Mother Earth!
The Xeros is going to be initially launched in the UK, of course, where water conversation is such a big issue.
The Xeros is expected to be launched by next year.
The UK averages a sale of two million washing machines each year. With this brand new concept, it will drastically change many households and will make the environment a whole lot better.
