  2. New Method Turns Harmful Environmental Waste Into Useful Synthetic Reagent 9/11/2026

    Fluorinated waste, like that found in firefighting aqueous film-forming foam, can act as a significant environmental pollutant. Recently, James Tour’s lab at Rice University developed a method to capture the fluoride from these waste streams and recycle it into a useful reagent, silver fluoride, that could be used in other manufacturing processes. This process was recently published in Nature Chemical Engineering.
