Listen "199: Update on Microplastics"
Episode Synopsis
Send us a textMove over PFAS, Sara Page, Drinking Water Treatment Lead for the Utah Division of Drinking Water, joins us to discuss my new favorite(?) emerging contaminant - microplastics. This is a fascinating discussion about the very complicated and complex nature of microplastics. Sara does a great job of breaking down the key considerations of shape, type (chemical composition), additives, and age as a means for us to get our heads wrapped around this incredibly dynamic topic. I walked away with a newfound appreciation for the importance of surface area and degradation over time as important considerations. This is a topic to watch.
