Cafe Scientifique - River water analysis with a piece of paper

28 November 2018 19:30-21:00, Beverley, United Kingdom


Introduction
Hull University PhD researcher Samantha Richardson is developing a dip-stick device to test for everyday waterway pollutants for use by members of the public to help collect pollution data.

According to Ms Richardson, these devices will test for a series of pollutants, many of which can be found on the EU’s ‘Watch list’. Using a simple colour change to identify when a chemical is present, these devices will help gain a wider understanding of the water quality across our rivers.
