American researchers have created a palladium-coated membrane that can break the extremely strong bond between carbon and fluorine.
New method destroys more than 90% of tested forever chemicals in water
Scientists have developed a water-treatment method that does more than trap persistent pollutants: it breaks apart the chemicals themselves. In a 58-day test, the system removed more than 90% of each of six tested types of so-called forever chemicals. The approach uses a special membrane coated with palladium, a metal that helps hydrogen react with […]
A new membrane uses activated hydrogen to decompose six particularly durable PFAS compounds. In the 58-day laboratory test, up to 96 percent of the substances were removed from the water and a total of around 83 percent of the bound fluorine was cut off. However, further development work is needed up to a water treatment application. Tempe [...] Die Beitrag Neue „Fang-und-Zerstörung-Chemie baut PFAS-Evigkeitschemikalien ab erschien auf scanxx
