Chinese Scientists Unveil Modified-Clay Technology Against Algal Blooms
Original: Chinese Scientists Develop Modified-clay Technology, Helping Countries Tackle Harmful Algal Blooms
Scientists with the Chinese Academy of Sciences have developed a modified-clay technology designed to combat harmful algal blooms, which threaten water supplies, fisheries and coastal ecosystems worldwide. The approach works by flocculating algae in affected waters, and researchers say it can help other countries deal with outbreaks. The announcement is drawing attention as algal blooms intensify globally due to warming waters and nutrient pollution.
Why now: Harmful algal blooms are an increasingly severe environmental problem, making a practical mitigation technology newsworthy.
