Foamed plastic carriers boost biofilm formation in wastewater treatment

For the sake of the environment and our quality of life, effective treatment of wastewater plays a vital role. A biological method to treat sewage using moving, biofilm-covered plastic items known as carriers has been gaining prominence, and an Osaka Metropolitan University-led team has found ways to make the process more efficient. For the sake of the environment and our quality of life, effective treatment of wastewater plays a vital role.
