Scientists have known for years that membranes can do things such as act as a filter for saltwater. When salty ocean water is moved through a membrane, clean water comes out the other side that can be ...

Researchers at CU Boulder have developed a new membrane water filtration system based around air bubbles that can help address water scarcity issues around the world. Membrane filters generally use ...

A team of Australian and US scientists has made a breakthrough in the development of membranes that, paradoxically, allow large molecules through far more readily than smaller ones. The new ...

Traditional water filters struggle to remove smaller PFAS molecules, but a new Monash-designed filter changes that. Researchers at Monash University have developed a water filtration membrane that ...

Most people on Earth get fresh water from lakes and rivers. But these account for only 0.007 percent of the world’s water. As the human population has grown, so has the demand for fresh water. Now, ...

Traditional water filters struggle to remove smaller PFAS molecules, but a new Monash-designed filter changes that. Researchers at Monash University have developed a groundbreaking water filtration ...

Researchers developed a new membrane that selectively filters out lithium from brines, offering a faster, cleaner way to produce the element at the heart of nearly every rechargeable battery. The ...

A "straight out of science fiction" liquid membrane developed by a team of Penn State mechanical engineers acts as a "reverse filter" that lets large objects through while blocking small ones. The ...
