Research abstract
This Small Business Innovation Research Phase I project aims to develop a scalable process for production of nanomaterials-based, high permeability, freeze/thaw resistant membranes for removal of biological contaminants from low salinity water sources. Due to the high membrane permeability, smaller pore sizes can be utilized, offering the ability to remove bacteria and viruses, and thus eliminating an additional decontamination step required with current individual water purification systems.
