IIT-B designs florets to remove impurities from industrial effluents

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT-B) have designed a nanocarbon particle that can help clean heavy metal pollutants from industrial effluents.
The nanocarbon particles or florets that look like marigolds, can remove 90% of pollutants including arsenic, chromium, cadmium and mercury from industrial effluents, claim the researchers.
The work by the team led by professor C Subramaniam was published in the ACS Applied Nano Materials journal recently.
