Amid recent reports of a contaminated water supply in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, Fox News Digital asked experts whether it's safe to drink unfiltered tap water.

"There are four broad systems for treating drinking water to remove such contaminants in the home"

A discovery by UC Riverside scientists could assist water providers across the nation as they face new federal standards to limit "forever chemical" concentrations in drinking water.

Two-dimensional transition metal carbides (MXene) possess attractive conductivity and abundant surface functional groups, providing immense potential in the field of electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption. However, high conductivity and spontaneous aggregation of MXene suffer from limited EMW response. Inspired by dielectric–magnetic synergy effect, the strategy of decorating MXene with magnetic elements is expected…

As countries work to ban more and more PFAS, focus is shifting to how to remove the ones already out there

It is found in polar bears and virgin forests. It is in our shellfish, hot cocoa mixes, and kale.

Scientists are showing these damaging compounds can be beat.

iPhone 15 starts at $799, iPhone 15 Plus starts at $899. Available September 22.

3M sold forever chemicals for decades. Will it foot the bill to get them out of our water supply?

Radiocesium (RCs) has long half-life, strong radioactive toxicity, and high bioavailability. The migration and transformation of RCs in the environment have aroused much attention.

The ST40, a compact high-field spherical tokamak, has achieved ion temperatures more than 5 keV—a feat not attained previously.

New work on developing a weak-acid washing strategy for layered nickel-rich cathodes was published in Energy Material Advances.

My Brita water filter does not in fact purify.

The Pixel 6a is a powerful engine in a lightweight body. Protect its glass front with one of these best Google Pixel 6a screen protectors you can buy right now.

We spoke to experts in the realms of science, academia and water filtration to help you navigate the often complicated, ever-fluid world of residential tap water, so that you can make smarter and more informed choices about how to purify your drinking water.

For the upcoming iPhone 16, Apple will adopt the same color-infused back glass that features on the standard iPhone 15 models, claims a new rumor out...

NPR's Ari Shapiro talks with Ali Zaidi, President Biden's national climate advisor, about the first ever national standards on the amount of PFAS in drinking water.

Zeolites have unique porous atomic structures and are useful as catalysts, ion exchangers and molecular sieves. It is difficult to directly observe the local atomic structures of the material via electron microscopy due to low electron irradiation resistance. As a result, the fundamental property-structure relationships of the constructs remain unclear.

At least 45 percent of the United States' tap water is contaminated with toxic "forever" chemicals, according to a study by a government agency.Found in everyday products such as non-stick frying pans, polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) can linger in the environment for a long time and have been linked to serious health conditions including cancer and birth defects.The chemicals can reach water supplies through…
