Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati (IIT-G) scientists have created a breakthrough material that can clean industrial wastewater, separate oil spills, and possibly power wearable sensors. This low-cost, sustainable material could transform pollution control and clean tech, with efforts underway to scale it for industry use, the team said. The study introduces a cutting-edge material – aerogels, engineered to tackle industrial waste in multiple ways. Aerogels are ultra-lightweight, highly porous materials with a large surface area and…
