Sorption technology

Sorption technology involves capturing and holding molecules—such as pollutants, gases, or liquids—onto the surface of a material through processes like adsorption (adhesion to a surface) or absorption (being taken into the material). This method is used in water purification, air cleaning, and energy storage because it efficiently removes contaminants or stores useful substances. The key is the material's ability to attract and retain specific molecules, making sorption an effective, environmentally friendly way to control or manage various substances in industrial, environmental, and energy applications.
