Nanomaterial-based solution to reduce heavy metals present in groundwater

Nanoparticle-based remediation of chromium-contaminated water

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) have developed a nanomaterial-based solution that can effectively reduce the presence of heavy metals like chromium in groundwater. The IISc team proposes an on-site alternative which involves using iron nanoparticles that can remediate the heavy metals.
