University of Windsor researcher Bulent Mutus has designed and built a filter that can remove potentially harmful phosphates from contaminated water.
Phosphates are a naturally occurring mineral found in sewage and used in detergents and commercial fertilizers, but increased levels in waterways substantially reduces water quality. Runoff from water containing an abundance of phosphates causes a chemical imbalance in streams, rivers, and lakes and can encourage massive growth of some plants and algae.

Dr. Gordon Osinski could possibly be London's biggest rock star. But before you go looking him up on iTunes, it might be helpful to know his latest hit goes back at least a few million years.
Osinski is an associate professor in Earth Sciences at Western University. His primary area of study is the Earth, Moon and Mars, and how geological processes have shaped those three planetary objects. His specialty, however, is asteroid impacts or as Osinski described it, "what happens when big chunks of rocks hit the earth and other planetary objects."

Discovery
If you thought your rock and mineral collection was reasonably complete, guess again.
A team of researchers, led by the Carnegie Institute for Science's Robert M. Hazen, used a sophisticated statistical modeling system to calculate that the Earth has a lot of undiscovered minerals — 1,563, to be precise — to add to the nearly 5,000 that already are known. Moreover, the scientists predict that Earth's mineral diversity is unique, and is not duplicated anywhere else in the universe — even on Earth-like rocky exoplanets.
