Utilizing Water-Oil Separating Membrane From Recycled Plastics

Project Type: Self-Initiated

Project Description

More than 8 million tons of plastic waste enter our ocean every year, along with oil spills and industrial waste that contaminate our water sources and current separation methods are inefficient and expensive. Our solution is a water-oil separating membrane made from recycled plastics. This will assist in the reduction of plastic waste and industrial waste harming our environment.
