Researchers at the University of California San Diego have engineered a living material that can clean pollutants out of the water.
According to CleanTechnica, the material is made of a seaweed-based polymer that is combined with genetically engineered bacteria. When the bacteria come into contact with organic pollutants, they turn them into “benign molecules” so that they no longer are harmful to human health.
