Experiment reveals carbon nanotube membranes significantly lower bacterial counts in river water, suggesting potential for water purification.
AbstractPresent study deals with carbon nanotube-based membrane filters infused with Catharanthus roseus extract to eliminate harmful microorganisms from river water. Experiments on filtration of contaminated River water samples revealed that membranes coated with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) reduced bacterial count and lowered colony-forming units (CFUs) It was pointed out efficiency of carbon nanotube-based membranes, especially when used along with plant-derived antibacterial agent.
