“The current population of slightly more than six billion consumes the resources (water) of one planet Earth. By about 2050, when the population is expected to reach about nine billion, and if ...

Researchers have developed a groundbreaking one-step, crystal growth process for making ultra-thin layers of material with molecular-sized pores. Researchers demonstrated the use of the material, ...

Combined adsorption of micro pollutants on activated carbon and membrane filtration of MICRODYN-NADIR has proven an alternative to the established activated carbon/precipitation/sand filtration ...

Researchers have succeeded in developing an ultrathin membrane with a fouling-resistant silica surface treatment for high performance separation of oil from water. Furthermore, this membrane was shown ...

Membrane separation technology is increasingly becoming an important innovation in biological wastewater treatment. Biofouling of the membrane is a major factor affecting the efficient and economic ...

Hydrogen is one of the most abundant elements on Earth and an exceptionally clean fuel source. While it is making its way into the fuel cells of electric cars, busses and heavy equipment, its ...

Researchers from the International Institute for Carbo-Neutral Energy Research (I2CNER), Kyushu University and NanoMembrane Technologies Inc. in Japan are using organic polymer membranes to develop ...

The “snug-fitting plugs” remain stable and separate hydrogen even at high temperatures. This plug design prevents the ...

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a membrane that separates crude oil components by molecular size, potentially reducing the energy required for crude oil ...
