1. Green Protein Hydrogels and Non-dry Aerogels in Water Purification
University essay from KTH/KemiAbstract : Having access to clean water is not a certainty for every human being. Today, there are major problems with polluted water that not just affect us humans, but also the ecosystem around us. In recent years, research into making aerogels from protein nanofibrils (PNF) has increased. READ MORE

2. Conductive metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and possible applications
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskapAbstract : Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of hybrid organic/inorganic materials with permanent porous structure. Whilst there are virtually endless possible selection of metal ions and organic ligands to build up a MOF structure, intrinsically conductive MOFs are rare, relatively new, and our knowledge on their conductivity and charge transport mechanisms is limited.

3. Fluoride removal by low-cost adsorbents
University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknikAbstract : Fluoride, the most abundant form of fluorine, is an ion released into the environment, mainly via anthropogenic sources and erosion of mineral rocks. Although the element is well known for its health benefits on teeth and bones, it can as well be a harmful pollutant. READ MORE

4. Heavy metal removal and water treatment using Upsalite
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Nanoteknologi och funktionella materialAbstract : Ion exchange reactions between Upsalite, a mesoporous magnesium carbonate, and metal ions of cadmium, lead and nickel have been studied to evaluate the capacities of Upsalite as a water treatment agent. Uptake capacity and reaction kinetics have been evaluated using a batch experiment and atomic absorption spectroscopy. READ MORE
