Removal of trihalomethanes from aqueous solution through armchair carbon nanotubes: A molecular dynamics study

A snapshot of the simulated system containing carbon nanotube embedded between two graphene sheets as nanostructured membrane for trihalomethane removal. (Black color represents carbons atoms; green color represents chlorine atoms; red and white colors represent the oxygen and hydrogen atoms of water molecules, respectively. Two water reservoirs are attached to each side of the box. In the glass region, external forces are applied on water molecules to create a pressure drop across the membrane.)
