Last year, 2014, Nano Sun of Singapore’s Nanyang Technological University developed a multi-functional water filtration membrane.
This latest water filter technology uses titanium dioxide
nanotechnology instead of the usual polymer-based water filtration
membranes.
It sounds scientific to ordinary citizens like us but simply put, it
kills bacteria and breaks down organic compounds using the ultraviolet
rays or more commonly known to us as, the sun. In addition, it claims to
be environmental friendly as it reduces biofouling or the accumulation
of microorganisms that usually grow on wet surfaces.
