Here’s one option that those involved in containing the oil spill in Guimaras can consider – use tree barks.

These can be used to clean polluted water of toxic metals, especially lead, it was found in a study done by chemist Jennifer P. Tamayo of the Los Baños-based Department of Science and Technology-Forest Products Research and Development Institute (DOST-FPRDI).

Tamayo studied the potential of barks of eight tree species to trap ions of lead and chromium present in the wastewater of a steel galvanizing plant. Chromium causes biological mutations while lead causes kidney and liver cancer.
