Concerns raised over new Tijuana River cleaning project using ozone nanobubbles
A new pilot project to clean the Tijuana River using ozone nanobubbles has sparked concerns from a UC San Diego researcher who believes the experimental technology could pose health risks to South Bay residents. The International Boundary and Water Commission launched the 60-day project on Monday, testing whether tiny ozone bubbles can help clean the polluted waterway. However, Dr. Kimberly Prather from UC San Diego is raising red flags about the untested approach. … [S]he warns that when they pop, the ozone gas gets released into the air, potentially putting more South Bay residents at risk.
