Graphene applications: Graphil

Graphene Flagship Spearhead Project GRAPHIL targets an urgent market and societal need; the removal of toxins and contaminants that are increasingly present in European water sources.

Installing a Graphil filter at home will make tap water more reliable, allowing people to drink and cook with clean water where it may otherwise not have been possible. This will bring significant cost-saving benefits to the end-user. The filters can also help to reduce the consumption of plastic bottles, working towards a more sustainable future.

Graphene oxide’s strong chemical affinity to contaminants makes the polysulfone fibres more effective at filtering out unwanted material. The membrane also filters out antibiotics, heavy metals, and PFAs, and many more contaminants, to ensure a steady flow of safe water.
