Título: Water at Nanoscale: From Basic Science to New Technologies.

Expositor: José Rafael Bordin – Departamento de Física, Universidad Federal de Pelotas (Brasil)

Fecha: Viernes 02/08/2024 – 10:30 hs

Resumen:

Water is the most fascinating substance known. Its behavior is unique, with over 70 known anomalies. When we look at its behavior at the nanoscale, it becomes even more special. And despite all this strangeness, there is no life without water. However, we know that a large part of the world’s population already faces water scarcity, and with increasing consumption and contamination, the water shortage problem will worsen significantly by the middle of this century. In this talk, I will discuss some of these strange aspects of bulk and nanoconfined water, highlighting how we can combine computational and experimental studies to use these properties and develop new (nano)technologies for water decontamination, aiming to ensure potable water for future generations.
