Cleaning Up Pollution: The Power of Phosphorus in Carbon Fibers

Pollution is a big problem, especially when it comes to tough-to-remove chemicals. Scientists have been working on ways to clean up wastewater, and one promising method involves using special carbon fibers. These fibers are doped with phosphorus, which makes them super effective at breaking down pol
