Access to safe drinking water remains a major challenge, especially in regions lacking centralized treatment. Cellulose nanomaterials (CNMs) offer renewable, biodegradable options for membranes with ...

Water purification membranes are selective barriers that remove contaminants, salts, pathogens, particles, or dissolved molecules from water while allowing clean water or target species to pass. In ...

A KAIST research team has drawn attention by developing a new water-based air purification technology that combines “nano water droplets that capture dust” with a “nano sponge structure that ...

A new nanotechnology-based water purification system that aims to clean polluted rivers and reduce industrial waste was unveiled at the inauguration of India's first Semiconductor Innovation Museum, T ...

Traditional water filters struggle to remove smaller PFAS molecules, but a new Monash-designed filter changes that. Researchers at Monash University have developed a water filtration membrane that ...

New quiet, filterless air purifier sprays nano-sized water droplets to trap ultrafine dust, slashing power use and avoiding harmful ozone. (Nanowerk News) A KAIST research team has drawn attention by ...

The limited freshwater sources and the ease of water pollution necessitate efficient treatment systems. Membranes are commonly employed as filters and quality control materials in water treatment ...

Nanotechnology is the use of materials that are one-billionth of a meter (a nanometer) in size. One of its potential uses is to clean up whatever is contaminating water supplies. Analytical chemist ...

When words like micro- and nanoparticles are used, most think of pollutants themselves, not remediation. But sometimes, scaling down can be the way to solve the most complex issues in the environment.

Nanotechnology is the use of materials that are one-billionth of a metre (a nanometre) in size. One of its potential uses is to clean up whatever is contaminating water supplies. Analytical chemist ...
