Green Plastics - Blue Ocean
What about edible packaging?
What role can artists play in scientific research?
Could our oceans hold some of the answers to our problems with plastic?
What about miroalgae as an alternate protein source?
Hear about their Green Plastics - Blue Ocean project which explores the utilisation of marine algal derived polymers and plastics. This ongoing project explores societies needs, ecofriendly trends and mindsets, industry potential and a circular bioeconomy.
Learn about the successful partnership between an artist and a scientist and the cutting edge work they are doing right here in Adelaide.
Join Niki and Peng as they discuss some of their discoveries and outline the various applications for their marine algal derived polymers and plastics including:
- recycling and waste management
- medical applications like wound dressings, implants and 3D bioprinting
- packaging
- textiles
- drug delivery and
