| dc.description | A university professor grew a new kind of algae in wastewater to see how it thrives and turns true to form and expectation to remove microplastics—the less than 5 mm of plastics that escape detection by naked eye—from its water environment. The University of Missouri posted on its website on February 1 that Prof. Susie Dai has used genetic engineering “to create a new kind of algae that grows in wastewater and can turn microplastics into biomass that is easy to collect and remove.” | en |
