Description
Seyed Ali Hosseini, Mohammad Kazemeini, and Alireza Mohammadi built nickel based layered catalysts that use visible light to strip an antibiotic from wastewater. Their 2026 study targets meropenem, a drug that passes into water and feeds resistance. The materials pair light driven breakdown with surface capture, so the two effects boost each other.
Two synthesis routes made the catalysts, both starting from porous framework solids later loaded with nickel. Tests varied the dose, drug level, acidity, and heat. The best material removed 98.1 percent of the drug under tuned conditions and still hit 93.4 percent after five reuse cycles. Post test scans and chemical checks confirmed the material held up. The work shows a path toward cleaning drug tainted water.
