Millia RTU researchers have found a way to produce porous ceramics from Corundum, which is three times lower than traditional methods at a temperature of only 450 ° C, together with scientists from Moscow State University. This approach can significantly reduce energy consumption and accelerate the production process – the creation of the material takes only 30 minutes. Development opens new opportunities to create effective filters with minimum production costs.
The main advantage of the method is that there is no need for binders and the resulting components. At the same time, ceramics have high porosity (almost 48%), which provides excellent efficiency – more than 5,000 liters per hour per hour. Thanks to these features, the material is suitable for both rough cleaning and the correct filtration of water, which is promising for industrial use.
Researchers say that their methods make it possible to have a durable and effective filter material with an optimal pore structure. According to scientists, this technology can become a new standard in the production of ceramic filters, reduces the cost of production and increases the availability of high quality water purification.
