Seeds from Moringa oleifera trees can be used to purify water. Uppsala University leads a research group which has discovered that seed material can give a more efficient purification process than conventional synthetic materials in use today. This international collaboration used research facilities including neutron scattering instruments at the Institut Laue-Langevin in France and the NIST Center for Neutron Research in the USA.
