3D-Printed Ceramic Ink Removes 75% Of Deadly Forever Chemicals From Water

Harmful “forever chemicals” called PFAS can be removed from water using 3D-printed ceramic structures.

  • Researchers at the University of Bath developed an ink infused with indium oxide that can be 3D printed into monoliths (lattice structures).
  • When water passes through these monoliths, PFAS molecules cling to the indium oxide, removing at least 75% of these contaminants.
  • This method is compatible with existing water treatment plants and could be a valuable tool for cleaning up PFAS-contaminated water supplies.
