During the testing process, two problems (at least) arose: finding the right concentrations and ingredients so that the membrane would not fall apart in the hands; and the soapy taste of the outer layer and the water itself, which was solved by adding a teaspoon of lemon juice to the calcium lactate solution.<\/p>\n<p>Madison began working on the project in October 2021 as part of her elementary school&#8217;s science fair. From there, it went on to the next phases at the school district, state, and national level. In 2022, it was a Broadcom<br \/>Masters Competition finalist, the premier science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) competition in the U.S., aimed at elementary school students.

The group then thought of using the carbon present in styrofoam to create activated carbon, used in almost all water filters. In this way, they created a way to provide clean drinking water and reduced Styrofoam waste with just one solution.<\/p>\n<p>The project is now receiving funding from the eCYBERMISSION STEM-in-place program.<br \/>Action, from NSTA, sponsored by the US Army, and received 2 awards: the FIRST Global Innovation sponsored by XPRIZE and the Scientific American Innovator from Google Science Fair.<\/p>\n<p>With this support, Julia, Luke, Natalie and Ashton plan to obtain a patent for their process, while working on improving it and applying it to real situations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Wetland planting and water quality testing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Since the age of 10, <a href=\"https:\/\/linktr.ee\/anaonaplanet\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ana Humphrey<\/a> has been working on solving problems such as environmental conservation, clean water, and reducing the spread of waterborne diseases.<\/p>\n<p>Her first environmental education project was the creation of the kidslovemountains.org website (not active at the moment) to educate children about mountaintop removal, a destructive way of extracting coal with consequences for ecosystems and community health.<\/p>\n<p>In 8th grade, she created the &#8220;Watershed Warriors&#8221; initiative focused on local wetland planting that helps restore habitats for native species and improve water quality.<\/p>\n<p>To ensure the continuation of the project, Ana secured a funding grant and assembled a team of students to continue providing educational and hands-on experiences in growing, caring for, and transplanting wetland gardens to 5th graders, primarily in schools with high poverty and racial and ethnic diversity. In collaboration with the National Parks Service and local organizations, young people learn science, have fun, and support their communities.<\/p>\n<p>The young woman also developed an application that improves water quality by removing bacteria, measuring the presence of E. coli.
