Deltares gebruikt de grootste golffaciliteit om op ware schaal de effectiviteit van bomen op- golfdemping te testen, maar we heben hulp nodig... lnkd.in/g9XE4Ft

Is het nieuw ontdekte enzym de oplossing voor PET in ons milieu? Gisterenavond in @RTLnieuws werd die vraag gesteld aan onze microbioloog Jan Gerritse (vanaf 16:00) #waterkwaliteit #plastics rtl.nl/video/51505f37-8090-3…
Enzymes can break down #plastics have been discovered. Is this our new solution to the #plasticsoup? My colleague @Deltares Jan Gerritse explains on the #RTL news! The item starts at 16.00 bit.ly/2J3Pz9y
