Delivering Clean Potable Water Using Smart Nano Materials Derived from Sustainable Resources

Effluents from textile mills are contaminating lakes and rivers in Myanmar, Vietnam and Malaysia, rendering the water unsafe for human consumption. Delivering clean potable water to the developing world is truly a grand challenge. Innovators at the University of Waterloo aim to remove dyes and heavy metals using sustainable nanomaterials derived from biomass.
