A novel nanotechnology-driven water purification system was launched on Sunday, October 12 at the opening of India's first Semiconductor Innovation Museum, T-Chip SIM, in Hyderabad, according to ANI. Developed by researchers at the University of Hyderabad, the system is intended to clean industrial and urban wastewater and contribute to the revival of the Musi River.

Advanced filtration to tackle industrial toxins

Professor Swati Ghosh Acharya, lead researcher on the project, told ANI that her team has engineered new nanomaterials specially designed to remove toxic heavy metal ions, high total dissolved solids (TDS), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) - pollutants frequently discharged by industries and municipal systems.

The new filter operates as a tertia
