The discharge over 1.2 million tons of radioactive water into the Pacific Ocean is posing a serious global concern.

Caption

Advanced porous material and emerging technologies, including nanomaterials like porous organic polymers (POPs), metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent organic frameworks (COFs), and porous aromatic frameworks (PAFs) and adsoprtion, photocatalysis and electrocatalysis are being explored to remove these radioactive materials from the environment.
