“Andrew Barron, a Rice University chemist, alongside a high school student came up with a new filter — called supported-epoxidized carbon nanotube (SENT) — that can remove toxic heavy metals from water. The filter, which is a material that looks like ordinary cotton, is also reusable.
“We grew carbon nanotubes onto quartz wool, then epoxidized them to make them active to adsorb metal ions,” Barron told ResearchGate. “We then discovered that vinegar reacts with the metal in solution to adsorb it from solution in a very efficient manner.”..”

What is that
]]>Interesting!!!!
]]>That’s great to our polluted water..
]]>If it is true that it works, the government may restrict its use or tax the hell out of it to the point of making so expensive that no one will use it.
I hope and pray that I’m wrong.
