UNSW SMaRT Centre researchers have shown waste textiles can be upcycled into high-performance activated carbon for purification uses.
Published by Elsevier, the study found textile-derived activated carbon cuts embodied carbon by 36 per cent and energy demand by over 99 per cent versus coal-based material.
The scalable microrecycling process supports circular economy goals.
