Abstract
A system for water purification includes an inlet in fluid communication with a first column, the first column, in fluid communication with a second column, the second column, in fluid communication with an outlet, and the outlet where the first column is loaded with a first filtration material including polymer-modified graphene oxide carbon dots according to the structure and where the second column is loaded with a second filtration material including polymer-modified graphene oxide quantum dots according to the structure,
Claims20
A system for water purification, comprising:
- a first column having an inlet disposed proximal to a bottom end thereof, wherein the first column is in fluid communication with a second column through a conduit disposed proximal to a top end of the first column and a top end of the second column;
- wherein the second column has an outlet disposed proximal to a bottom end thereof;
- and
- wherein the first column contains a first filtration material comprising polymer-modified graphene oxide carbon dots according to the structure
- wherein n is an integer in a range from 1 to 10,000 and m is an integer in a range from 1 to 10,000,
- wherein the second column contains a second filtration material comprising polymer-modified graphene oxide quantum dots according to the structure
- and
- wherein x is an integer in a range from 1 to 10,000.
