This video is a brief demo from Ritchie LaFaille, Ritchie is a graduate student in Apul Group. The experiment shows superior heating of carbon nanofibers during microwave irradiation. Ritchie thinks that we should harvest this energy and remediate contaminated soils by removing hard-to-remove pollutants (like petroleum). How else can we use this heat for water and the environment?
