Magnetic nano-adsorbents for the removal of arsenic in drinking water

Magnetic nano-adsorbents for the removal of arsenic in drinking water


At NEWT, we have designed magnetic composite nanoadsorbents (nanoparticles that can trap contaminants) with high affinity towards arsenic species that have proved to remove arsenic below EPA limits (2.78 ppb) from drinking water.
