Sargassum muticum and potash for fertilization. Water treatment: the cell walls of "S. muticum" contains alginates and fucoidans. The association of both molecules forms a bigger molecule and this one can be a flocculant. This process can be a method to catch organic matter present in sewage. This flocculant, rich in proteins and oligoelements, is easily biodegradable and could be used for fertilizer. Previous studies have shown that "Sargassum muticum" is able to carry out the biosorption of heavy metals like cadmium, chlorophenolic compounds, and nickel. Antifouling: Secondary metabolites produced by marine algae could be an interesting alternative antifouling agent. Previous studies
Leningrad Nuclear Power Plant Leningrad Nuclear Power Plant Leningrad Nuclear Power Plant ( ()) is a nuclear power plant located in the town of Sosnovy Bor in Russia's Leningrad Oblast, on the southern shore of the Gulf of Finland, some to the west of the city centre of Saint Petersburg. It consists of four nuclear reactors of the RBMK-1000 type. These reactors are similar to reactors No. 1 and 2 of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. Two units of the VVER-1200 type are under construction at Power Plant II to replace the current RBMK reactors when they reach the end of their service lives.
