ISA | New filter to clean water, purify hydrogen for fuel cells

a football field, according to Kanatzidis. The bigger the surface area of the material, the more efficiently it can bind other molecules, he said. Previous experiments into molecular filtration had used oxides rather than chalcogenides as their chemical constituents. While oxides tend to be insulators, most chalcogenides are semiconductors, enabling the study of their electrical and optical characteristics. Kanatzidis hopes to examine the photocatalytic properties of these new gels in an effort to determine whether they can assist in the production, and not merely the filtration, of hydrogen.
