SAFE TAP WATER WITH GRAPHENE OXIDE
Graphil (Graphene Enhanced Filters for Water Purification)
Hollow Fiber Membrane: Secure Residential water quality by removing bacteria, virus and micropollutants in a single filtration step.
Polymem and its partners are developing new tap water cartridges incorporating graphene oxide in hollow fiber membranes.
The
end goal of Graphil is the production and commercialization of safe, innovative filters for household water treatment and for portable water purification devices exploiting graphene and related materials. Graphil products will target
an urgent market and societal need: the removal of emerging concern contaminants (ECs), molecules with suspect or certified effects on public health including pesticides, pharmaceuticals, per fluorinated compounds, disinfection-by-products, heavy metals and new pathogens increasingly present in water sources, because resistant to conventional purification technologies. GRM are effective in removing the new ECs and are the most promising technology enabling this application today.
