Microrobots clean up radioactive waste

30th October 2019by admin0

According to some experts, nuclear power holds great
promise for meeting the world’s growing energy demands without
generating greenhouse gases. But scientists need to find a way to
remove radioactive isotopes, both from wastewater generated by
nuclear power plants and from the environment in case of a spill.
Now, researchers reporting in ACS Nano have developed tiny,
self-propelled robots that remove radioactive uranium from
simulated wastewater.

    The New Fusion technology is based on a phenomenon called triplet-triplet annihilation (TTA) which is a process in which two triplet excitons annihilate and produce a higher energy singlet exciton.
