They are perfecting a process to capture water released from the potatoes as    they are cooked into crisps before using it in the manufacturing process. Engineers behind the project say they hope to be able to run entire factories    using extracted potato water, meaning they can be unplugged entirely from    the mains supply. The water will initially be used in the manufacturing process to clean, peel    and slice potatoes when they are brought in, but PepsiCo says it hopes to    also provide tap and drinking water using the system in its factories. The company even hopes that if it can produce enough excess water from    potatoes it may be able to add to water supplies for local communities near    their factories.
