Coffee on the nanoscale: Graphene oxide membrane removes half the caffeine while retaining key compounds
The humble coffee filter has the relatively simple job of letting the coffee through and leaving the grounds behind.
AI Summary
Researchers at the ARC Center of Excellence for Carbon Science and Innovation are investigating a nanoscale filter that could separate caffeine from coffee. The study builds on the traditional coffee filter’s role of allowing liquid to pass while trapping grounds. The goal is to create a molecular‑scale membrane that removes caffeine while retaining other flavor compounds.
