Next generation filtration
The project focuses on the development of graphene nanoporous thin-films (NTFs), which promise significant value for the fields of water desalination and filtration. In this next phase of research, the team will develop a next generation filtration and desalination membrane and continue to identify and optimize specifications for commercial applications with global impact.
