Next-generation sensor to measure the amount of microplastics in our oceans

As part of the EU-funded NAUTILOS project, CSEM engineers are developing a sensor that can continuously detect and measure the concentration of microplastics in our seas and oceans. To be installed in a fleet of ships operating off the coast of Norway, the autonomous sensing system should begin its activities in the coming years.
