Atomic layer deposition could be used to create safe affordable water filters.In a study funded by the National Science Foundation and the National Institutes of Health, researchers have found that the process of layering nanoparticles could be used to provide safe and affordable water filters to the developing world. The process is called "atomic layer deposition" and involves layering nanoparticles onto a metal or a ceramic to create a thin film of cells. The layer can be applied to the particles used in water filtration devices....<br><br><a href='https://inhabitat.com/nanoparticle-science-helps-create-low-cost-water-purification-systems/'>READ ARTICLE</a>1
