View our team's recent scientific publication concerning our technology and its ability to remove PFAS from water.

From WHQR Public Media:
The new $10 million funded Ionic Fluorogel project is especially adept in filtering GenX from drinking water. The tiny technology is reusable and has many perks in comparison to current PFAS remediation techniques. The project, currently in its scale-up phase, plans to implement the technology in public water facilities across the state of North Carolina.

From Carolina Arts & Sciences Magazine:
UNC-Chapel Hill’s College of Arts & Sciences discusses how the ionic fluorogel resin created by Dr. Leibfarth and Dr. Coronell with funding from the NC General Assembly and NC Collaboratory can reduce the amount of PFAS found in North Carolina drinking water. The focus now is to scale-up the ionic fluorogel for its potential use at water treatment facilities.
