There exists a significant need today for high capacity, high efficiency sorbent materials to selectively sequester toxic metal species from groundwater or wastestreams. We have an on-going effort at PNNL to design, synthesize, characterize and evaluate functionalized nanoporous materials for environmental remediation, sensing/detection and device applications.
