Methodologies in removing microplastic pollution from effluent and open water of the Rideau River
The project aims to evaluate microplastic removal technologies from wastewater effluent and surface water of the Rideau River in Ontario Canada. A specifically designed net with a novel mesh product that has been developed to capture microplastics will be deployed to a wastewater effluent stream to test removal capabilities. Furthermore, removing microplastics from surface water of the Rideau River will be evaluated with the Seabin and a skimming device fitted to a sampling boat. The collected material will be analysed for microplastics.
