A potential solution to the sand crisis - FINITE
Actually 'melted down' to be reused? A different resource I read said, [t]he recycling process is a secret but talking over email, Oza described the gist: “We use a non-toxic solution that allows the material to enter a more liquid state that can be recast or reapplied” in new Finite-based constructions.
That reads to me a lot more like either dissolving or de-polymerizing rather than 'melting'.
The actual information about Infinite comes at 4:30 in the above video: the reasoning, the general method of binding the desert sand, their testing, the project's future.
Sadly they are very tight-lipped about the method of binding the desert sand together. I'm really curious about it.
More reading about Finite...
