Division: | Génie et sciences de l'informatique / Innovation environnementale | Catégorie: | Junior | Région: | York | Ville: | Markham, ON | École: | Richmond Hill Montessori and Elementary Private School | Sommaire: | Bisphenol-A (BPA) has now been well documented to be leaching from plastic water bottles especially when these bottles are subjected to heat such as in the summer. Experiments (n=5) were conducted to test the heat transfer to the water comparing commercial plastic water bottles to Tetra Pak containers. As part of the EnviroExpo project, a new water bottle using Tetra-Pak material has been designed. |
