Development of PEF/PET-starch hydrogels for Thai shrimp farms wastewater treatment
Description
The project aims to develop PEF/PET starch hydrogels for wastewater treatment in Thai shrimp farms.
The hydrogels to be developed are produced from the chemical depolymerization of polyethylene terephthalate and polyethylene furanoate and subsequent cross-linking and used as filter materials for water treatment.
