North Dakota State University doctoral student Ramya Raghunathan will present her research at the Gordon Research Seminar on Photochemistry on July 19, 2015 at Stonehill College, Easton, Massachusetts. Raghunathan is part of a research team at NDSU, Fargo, which developed a process using biomass to create plastic. The research holds scientific promise that could lead to a new type of plastic that can be broken down when exposed to ultraviolet light at the nanoscale and is reduced back to molecules, which could then be used to create new plastic.
