The lead scientist at UBC and his team have developed a unique chemical product Dr. Mohseni, the lead scientist at UBC, and his team have developed a unique silica-based material with a high capacity to absorb a range of perfluorooctane sulfonic acid from drinking water. The reusable material acts like a filter, trapping most harmful particles and then destroying them using a unique electrochemical and photochemical process developed by the researchers.
