CycloPure, a Northwestern University-affiliated company, has developed a novel treatment – a low-cost, sustainable polymer adsorbent that is more effective than traditional water purification methods.

Tokyo Electric Power Co. announced on Feb. 7 that the water from a radioactive water purification system contained an estimated 22 billion becquerels of gamma-emitting radioactive substances.

Boiling and filtering water can remove up to 90% of microplastics from tap water. Learn how this simple method works and why it’s effective for your home.

Enzyme degradation and chemical decomposition conspire to ruin protein samples throughout the steps of purification. Proteases in the original sample and varying salt concentrations can result in ...

Duncan Peters, founder and CEO of IF, said: “Access to safe drinking water is a global problem that is only ... different and more traditional purification methods over the years, including ...

To tackle this problem, Professor Chuyang Tang and his team developed a silk-based nanofiltration membrane that can achieve water purification at much lower pressure, in fact using a partial ...

contaminating water supplies and posing significant health risks, including cancer and immune system disruptions. Traditional methods of PFAS disposal are costly, energy-intensive and often ...

The implications are broad and compelling. In water purification, this method could help engineers fine-tune membrane materials to optimize hydrogen bonding, improving water flow and selectivity ...

Recent advances in purification ... methods as a boon to proteomics, others are cautious about this new direction. William Gillette voices this concern succinctly: “The problem, to paraphrase ...

Satisfied with their specificity, he released his tiny army and they got to work. Water hyacinth is a problem in the US as well. According to the University of Florida, water hyacinth was ...
