Quarantine Eco-Projects - English
1. Lake Lagos
This project was born in Lagos de Moreno thanks to the memories of the elderly around us; we want to recover values and emblematic areas of this town; it will be possible by using the PET and with the help of the citizens.

2. Bioconversion of PET in Trichoderma sp as a heterologous expression system for the reduction of microplastics
This project seeks to genetically modify the fungus Trichoderma spp. to give it the ability to synthesize the MHETase and PETase enzymes that are necessary for the degradation of Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET Plastic).

3. Implementation of reinforcing technique with biodegradable character from low-density polyethylene and plant remains
Low density polyethylene (LDPE) takes from 100 to 400 years to degrade, it is also the third most produced plastic with a demand of 17.5% according to (PEMRG) and (GmbHt). The degradation of polymers is a complex process that can be initiated in multiple ways. In this project, an implementation is proposed that reduces the amount of LDPE in the environment and at the same time makes it more biodegradable.

6. Human rights as leaders in the sanitation of the Santiago River
The Santiago River suffers from pollution that is more than visible, there have been various attempts to recover it but none have worked. In a world in which human rights are setting a standard, these must be considered in their most recent interpretation.

7. Power generation in biodigesters in combination with electrochemical cells
Organic matter will cause pollution; however, this material can be used in an energetic way and it can reduce pollution by generating gas and electricity.
Country: México

8. Collection of atmospheric water for sustainable use
This is a project focused on the maximum use of water present in the atmosphere, through a system for collecting gutters, filters and easily available materials, and with an infrastructure that is easy to replicate in all campuses.
Country: México

9. BioGraphs
The purpose of our project is to create a university network of environmental education to generate social awareness about the environment, using infographics based on scientific articles, projects carried out in the different research areas, as well as in the basic academic programs of the degrees offered at the University of Guadalajara focused on the conservation of the environment.
Country: México

10. Gray water treatment through biofiltration
This project is focused on making a biofilter with ground coconut husk that allows the retention of pollutants, parasites and pathogenic microorganisms from the water coming from sanitary discharges. The water is treated with the shell to obtain clean water that can be used for irrigation of green areas, agriculture and toilets.
Country: México

11. Eco-Credit
It is a self-sustaining container capable of classifying different types of waste and providing a point outlet, manipulating wi-fi networks according to citizen participation, a mechanism based on solar energy.
Country: México

12. Treatment and determination of the retention of seven heavy metals with the realization of a biofilter with orange feel and recycled materials from the residual water of the university center for exact science and engineering
Using orange peel, heavy metal retention in wastewater can be achieved as the peel can function as an adsorbent matrix.

14. Museum: Ambassadors of nature in action (EdeNA)
We are working on making people aware of the pollution that today is mainly generated by single-use items, focusing this issue on the oceans. At the same time, a museum of marine specimens that will be collected from fishing cooperatives or organisms that have perished due to natural causes will be made, as well as collections of other marine animals.

16. Name of the Project: Lessons from the coronavirus: workshop course on urban gardens.
Lessons that the Coronavirus left us is a project that focuses in the economic problems that arise from a pandemic; the main lack of economic resources affects people's nutrition, especially in developing countries such as Mexico. The workshop course that we are working on is focused on the production of food in a sustainable way in our own home.
