Engineered Algae Could Help Pull Microplastics Out of Water
Key Takeaways
- Researchers engineered algae that use limonene to bind with microplastics in water.
- The algae cause plastic particles to clump and sink, making removal easier.
- The same system may also help clean wastewater and support later recycling into bioplastic materials.
