Breakthrough: Bio-based foam absorbs 99% of microplastics
Chinese researchers developed a biopolymer-based, reusable, biodegradable foam that efficiently absorbs microplastics from water, with an average removal efficiency of 95-98% over five cycles. The foam, made from chitin and cellulose, was tested in various water sources, demonstrating its effectiveness even in the presence of other pollutants.
Breakthrough May Turn Trees Into Cheaper Green Chemicals
NC State researchers identified lignin's methoxy content as key for microbial fermentation to convert trees into industrial chemicals, moving closer to sustainable alternatives to petroleum-derived chemicals.
Finding Could Help Turn Trees Into Affordable, Greener Industrial Chemicals
NC State researchers identified lignin's methoxy content as key to using trees for industrial chemicals, overcoming previous limitations with CRISPR-edited poplars. Low methoxy content enhances microbial degradation, making trees a sustainable alternative to petroleum-derived chemicals.
