Watermembrane

Industrial Biomimetic Watermembrane Project

 

It is possible to clean water by natural means. In this project, a system is developed for the production of ultrapure water through aquaporins. The project receives funding from the Danish National Advanced Technology Foundation. 

 
The picture on the left shows the principle of an aquaporin filter. The small white spots are aquaporins built into a biomimetic membrane (the yellow film), which is supported by the green material. A blue-grey substance is a scaffold surrounding and protecting the biomimetic membrane.
