MODELING

Our model aims to facilitate the implementation of our proteorhodopsin (PR)-expressing bacteria and biofilm prototype in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Using variables which are specific to any WWTP (such as flow rate and water retention time in each tank), we can determine the amount of bacteria or surface area of biofilm needed to reduce nanoparticle concentration in the treated effluent.

INTRODUCTION

Our goal is to remove as many NPs as possible from wastewater systems to minimize damage to the environment and our health. Due to the sheer variety of manufactured NPs and the significant chemical differences between them, we looked for common properties across different types of NPs. Most industrially produced NPs are coated with capping agents to prevent aggregation (ref). We specifically target citrate, the most common NP capping agent (Levard et al. 2012).
