Harnessing the Sun to Turn Wastewater Into Valuable Chemicals
New research has revealed a revolutionary way to turn wastewater into valuable chemicals—using only sunlight! Researchers from the University of Minnesota have developed a new photocatalytic process that uses sunlight to break down wastewater into valuable chemicals like hydrogen gas, organic acids, and ammonia. The process, which has the potential to revolutionize wastewater treatment, is inexpensive and energy-efficient, making it a viable option for wastewater treatment. The research team is hopeful that this process can be used to reduce the environmental impact of wastewater, while providing a valuable source of chemicals.
