…that iron might be the key to stopping harmful algal blooms?

Nitrate pollution is a tricky problem because while we need nitrates to fertilize our crops, runoff can lead to toxic algal blooms and groundwater contamination.
But now, researchers have discovered a process that can break down nitrates into either nitric oxide (which has numerous medical applications) or ammonia (which can be reused as fertilizer).
The key ingredient? Iron.
By combining an iron complex with either heat or light, the were able to break down the nitrates - a discovery which could lead to new, more sustainable systems.
