wastewater treatment

In a remarkable stride towards sustainable environmental solutions, researchers at IIT Kharagpur, led by Dr. Chirodeep Bakli, from Department of Energy Science and Engineering have developed an innovative technique for separating oil and water using ultra-thin, two-dimensional graphene channels. This cutting-edge method promises to transform the way industries tackle oil spills and water contamination, offering an energy-efficient alternative to conventional techniques. Graphene, a wonder material discovered in the early 21st century, has captivated scientists worldwide due to its extraordinary mechanical strength, atomic thinness, and excellent thermal and chemical stability. At the heart of this breakthrough is the exploitation of these…
