Australian researchers have developed a way to recycle polystyrene by converting its static electricity into usable power.
The invention comes from researchers at RMIT University in Australia and Latvia 's Riga Technical University .
The main innovation is in fabricating patches made from multiple layers of polystylrene, with each layer being one-tenth the thickness of a human hair.
When air flows over these patches, it generates static electricity that can then be harvested and utilized.
