which a biologically natural material 

can be produced in bioreactors and 

transformed for use as a dry solid. The 

resulting biopolymer material can be

applications to achieve increased soil 

strength, reduced air transport, and 

decreased soil erosion. During 

processing, the biopolymer also can be 

functionalized to improve its adsorption 

of heavy metals.
