Description

Segneanu and a large team make water cleaning materials from eggshell and fly ash waste in twenty twenty-four. The target is a toxic form of chromium that leaks into water from industry. They built six spongy materials that mix waste, a mineral, and magnetic bits. Two were wrapped in natural gels from seaweed and shell waste.

Under a microscope, the bits sat well inside the pores of the base materials. The new sponges had far more surface area than their raw parts. The best of them pulled nearly all the chromium from test water. Used sponges could be cleaned and used again. The work turns two wastes into a cheap tool against pollution.
