Michigan, Michigan State to launch urine recycling pilot at Michigan Stadium on Saturday
Researchers from Michigan and Michigan State will “collect urine from tailgaters” at Saturday’s rivalry game in Ann Arbor as “part of an event called ‘The Piss Off,’” according to Austin Meek of THE ATHLETIC. Researchers at the event, coordinated by Michigan’s Nutrient-Energy-Water Cycles Group, will “pasteurize the urine and isolate nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium for use in fertilizer pellets that will be applied to plants” at UM’s Matthaei Botanical Gardens and Nichols Arboretum and MSU’s W.K. Kellogg Biological Station. Two donation stations with standing urinals will be in the tailgating areas at Ann Arbor Golf & Outing Club across from gates 2 and 4 at Michigan Stadium. The group said that it “hopes to add sitting options for future events.” According to N-E-W Cycles, this event will be the “first ‘stadium-scale pilot’ for urine recycling in the U.S.” Saturday’s kickoff is at 7:30pm ET, and the donation stations will be open from 1pm ET until the end of the game (THE ATHLETIC, 11/5).
