Scientists have invented a filter for purifying radioactive water

After the nuclear accident in Fukushima there were millions of liters of radioactive water. This water is still there and nobody knows what to do with it. Scientists from Texas rice University and Kazan Federal University seem to have found the answer to this question.





Scientists have found carbon filter that can purify water. Material that has attracted scientists for these purposes, is called oxidative modified carbon. It is created by processing the available carbon particles chemical substances, there are two types of such material, one also is created artificially and it is used in industry, other, shungite appears naturally.

According to researchers, this type of carbon proved on laboratory tests, being able to detain particles of cesium and strontium also, according to scientists, it can restrain and radioactive elements.




According to scientists, using such filters the water you can just pull into the ocean. So how to pull all the water in the ocean is elementary dangerous, research continues. published
