Pulses of intense light could clean organic micropollutants from wastewater allowing for efficient removal of OMPs from water within milliseconds
https://discovery.kaust.edu.sa/en/article/1197/making-light-work-of-emerging-micropollutants "The researchers found that the effectiveness of high-intensity pulsed light (HIPL) varied significantly depending on parameters including the number of pulses and the total energy dose delivered by the light. This allowed them to identify the most effective conditions for treating a test solution containing 11 significant OMPs, including drugs, hormones and industrial chemical contaminants" Related: Novel nanofiltration membrane shows high efficiency in acidic wastewater treatment https://phys.org/news/2023-01-nanofiltration-membrane-high-efficiency-acidic.html From waste to clean water: Tiny carbon particles can do the job https://phys.org/news/2023-03-tiny-carbon-particles-job.html New wood-based technology removes 80% of dye pollutants in wastewater https://phys.org/news/2023-03-wood-based-technology-dye-pollutants-wastewater.html Wastewater to energy: New treatment process can im...
