Graphil
The end goal of Graphil is the production and commercialization of safe, innovative filters for household water treatment and for portable water purification devices exploiting graphene and related materials.
Graphil products will target an urgent market and societal need: the removal of emerging concern contaminants (ECs).
These are molecules with suspect or certified effects on public health including pesticides, pharmaceuticals, perfluorinated compounds, disinfection-by-products, heavy metals and new pathogens increasingly present in water sources, which have become resistant to conventional purification technologies. The use of graphene togethere with hollow fiber membrane will allow the development of adsorptive and filtrating membranes.
