26、d Bridge.DPlastic particles have made their way into air, water and soil around the world. Now a new research shows a way to help solve this problem, at least in water, with microrobots. When added to water, the tiny devices gather on plastic particles and begin breaking them down.When there is ligh
27、t, these star-shaped devices begin to absorb energy from and react with the surrounding water. “Powered by light, the robots move to sweep a much larger area than you can touch with other technologies,” says study co-author Pumera, “As the micro-robots are attached to plastic, some chemicals are pro
