LRD: 26 Feb 2013
In 2012, a group of students from Anderson Junior College (AJC) developed a method to use bentonite clay to clean soapy water without creating waster by-products. Their findings are made use of by PUB, Ngee Ann Polytechnic’s Environmental and Water Technology Centre of Innovation in a nine-month trial to recycle water. Should the trial be successful, there will be an alternative to treating laundry waste water. Currently, the methods that are being used produce hazardous waste.
Post your comments on the following questions:
- Should the trial be a success, what positive impacts could there be on the environment?
- Do you think it is important care for the environment? Why or why not?
- What are some things you can do to care for the environment?

It is good to use clay to recycle water. We could also use more things to recycle things!
