Separating out a particular toxic chemical from industrial processes linked to the manufacture of nylon, paint, certain foams found in furniture and even detergents requires a lot of energy and hassle. Now a team of scientists from UT Austin and Zhejiang University has struck upon a solution that could prove far more energy efficient and practical. The research is published in the journal Nature.
