A new material for removing toxic metals from water may benefit
hundreds of industries that produce large amounts of contaminated
waste water.
"The tests also show that the new material is easy to use and
inexpensive to produce. It is strong, flexible and chemically
very stable in storage," according to Dr. Warren H. Philip, Senior
Research Chemist in the Materials Division. He and Ken Street,
Head of the Chemical Sampling and Analysis Branch of the Lewis
Office of Environmental Programs, invented the material.
