Self-cleaning nanotech toilets
Nanotechnology will soon unwrap the real magic of titanium dioxide by creating self-cleaning products saving you from tedious cleaning job and also saving your precious time. The current titanium dioxide-based (TiO2) self-cleaning products only react to ultraviolet light of the sun to decompose the dirt accumulated on them. However, the new material developed at the Institute for Nanoscale Technology in Sydney, Australia, react to the visible spectrum.
The whole self-cleaning process involving the light-sensitive chemical coating works like 'artificial photosynthesis' breaking down dust and bacteria into 'carbon dioxide, hydrogen and other by-products that escape into the air.' So, just coat your toilet with the magic material and light that bulb to take care of all the cleaning.
