Membranes: Combining Phosphate and Bacteria Removal on Chemically Active Filter Membranes Allows Prolonged Storage of Drinking Water (Adv. Mater. 42/2013). (November 2013) - Rotzetter, A. C. C.
Abstract On page 6057, W. J. Stark and co‐workers present a chemically active filtration membrane that removes bacteria and the essential growth nutrient phosphate in a single filtration step. This allows the suppression of the microbial regrowth processes and thus, provides a simple device for the preparation of drinking water and subsequent safe storage.
