In many industrial processes, such as in bioreactors that produce fuels or pharmaceuticals, foam can get in the way. Frothy bubbles can take up a lot of space, limiting the volume available for making the product and sometimes gumming up pipes and valves or damaging living cells.
Since its discovery, copper has been vital to human technology. In ancient times, it was even used to make weapons and tools. Even today, it finds extensive use, specifically in electronic devices that need wiring.
