The project to combat global warming, a scientist from the UK presented its development - water in the form of powder. In his opinion, it should be an effective tool in combating the problems of environmental pollution. This development first demonstrated on a research in the United States shows. The substance consists of only two components: water and silica. Despite the small amount of the second component (about 5%), the material turned into a powder.

Besides the fact that it is able to absorb certain kinds of gases, it also "available" the opportunity to join with other immiscible liquids. For example, the material can be easily combined with the oil that ordinary water can be done like this. The scientist believes that because of their invention in the future can make the transport of dangerous substances is several times more secure, which undoubtedly will go to benefit the environment.
