Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, better known as PFAS, have earned the nickname "forever chemicals" for good reason. Their carbon–fluorine bonds, ...

A lanthanum-modified metal-organic framework from the University of Pittsburgh captures PFAS, arsenic, and lead simultaneously, with Langmuir capacities up to ...

Brazilian researchers grew carbon nanotubes on cobalt-impregnated serpentinite rock and used the magnetic amphiphilic composites to remove the persistent herbicide ...

Yale-led researchers have shown that plasmon-excited palladium and platinum nanoparticles can completely defluorinate PFOA and PFOS in water at room ...

Mexican researchers show that glycine concentration tunes the crystallite size, particle growth, surface charge, and thermal behavior of zero-valent iron ...

A new critical review maps how light-activated photonanozymes are engineered, what they can catalyze, and the hurdles standing between laboratory ...

A new study shows graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide can remove nearly all Rhodamine B dye from water within ...

A new review explains how carbon dots convert light into heat and reactive oxygen species, and what stands between these ...

A new review maps how mineral-silica composites are synthesized and deployed across environmental remediation, catalysis, pigments and superhydrophobic coatings.

Researchers converted invasive Rhus typhina biomass into a nano-magnesium oxide modified pyro-hydrochar that removes fluoride from water with record-setting capacity ...
