Using adsorbents to help society

Futurum

His work could help make huge breakthroughs in healthcare, climate change, environment and water scarcity research. Firstly, since sorbents can separate molecules from each other, finding new sorbents that can do this as efficiently as possible will reduce the energy needed for each separation. How does the team do this research?
