MIT unveils manta ray-inspired water filter design for industrial plants
SMRTR summary
MIT engineers have designed new water filters for industrial use, inspired by the filtering mechanism of manta rays. The design mimics the ray's mouth structure, creating vortices that trap particles while allowing water to pass through, achieving an efficient balance of permeability and selectivity. This innovation could improve industrial filtration processes, potentially leading to more effective water treatment systems.
