This SBIR Phase I project will develop bimetallic platinum copper/carbon nanofibers in a filter media system to react and remove nitrate from drinking water. In the same operation the system will perform filtration and thereby reduce the time for the operation and cost. The bulk of the Phase I proposal focuses on the synthesis of the nanofibers. The remainder of the project involves the characterization of the nanomaterials and an analysis of their ability to remove nitrate from water.The broader/commercial impacts of the proposed project will be a technology that could be used to remove nitrate from drinking water. Due to overuse of natural and synthetic fertilizers, nitrate concentration is at a high risk level at many water works and in groundwater sources. Nitrate is an important water quality issue and has significant potential public health impacts.

该SBIR第一阶段项目将在过滤介质系统中开发铂铜/碳纳米纤维，以反应和去除饮用水中的硝酸盐。 在相同的操作中，系统将执行过滤，从而减少操作时间和成本。 第一阶段提案的大部分集中在纳米纤维的合成上。该项目的其余部分涉及纳米材料的特性描述及其去除水中硝酸盐的能力分析，拟议项目的更广泛/商业影响将是一种可用于去除饮用水中硝酸盐的技术。 由于过度使用天然和合成肥料，许多自来水厂和地下水源中的硝酸盐浓度处于高风险水平。 硝酸盐是一个重要的水质问题，具有重大的潜在公共健康影响。
