While we are watching - here's that blurb on another use for Tio2 FWIW. LONDON, Oct 4 (Reuters) - London's streets could soon be paved with the rare metal titanium if tests on a new kind of pollution-absorbing paving stone go according to plan. Frixos Tombolis, head of the Transportation and Highways Committee for Westminster in central London, told BBC radio that the slabs would break down and absorb nitrogen oxide which comes from passing traffic. "It's a titanium-coated paving stone which reacts with oxides of nitrogen and absorbs them and converts them into harmless nitrogen and oxygen and therefore reduces one of the major urban polluters," he said. The plan could prove popular with British motorists who are furious about high fuel taxes aimed partly at reducing energy consumption to bring down pollution levels. "We're going to trial this probably next year and we're currently in negotiations with Mitsubishi Corporation," the Japanese company involved in developing the new paving stones, Tombolis said. He said that if the tests were successful the new pavements would be laid over the next few years. Wednesday, 4 October 2000 04:43:57
