Latest Somenath Mitra Stories

A faster, better and cheaper desalination process enhanced by carbon nanotubes has been developed by NJIT Professor Somenath Mitra. The process creates a unique new architecture for the membrane distillation process by immobilizing carbon nanotubes in the membrane pores. Conventional approaches to desalination are thermal distillation and reverse osmosis."Unfortunately the current membrane distillation method is too expensive for use in countries and municipalities that need potable...
