Takeaways:

  • The Oak Ridge National Laboratory researchers have designed an adsorbent material that rapidly removes toxic chromium and arsenic from water resources.
  • The structure they designed effectively traps the toxins permanently because they will not wash off or detach from the filter material without intentional removal by chemical processing.
  • The researchers are collaborating to expand the approach to other environmental pollutants.
