New Membrane Removes Nearly 100% of Ammonia From Wastewater in Minutes

A new electrically powered filter can strip nearly all ammonia nitrogen from wastewater in just over a minute while also breaking down carbon-based pollution. Researchers have developed an electro-filtration process that uses chlorine oxide radicals (·ClO) generated inside a specialized membrane to remove nitrogen and organic contaminants simultaneously. Reported in Engineering, the technology could provide [...]
