A Japanese company has developed a bonded textile, capable of absorbing radio active cesium, which will help purify water and soil contaminated by the accident at the Fukushima nuclear plant.

The company has distributed samples mainly in areas near the Fukushima complex and plans to commercialize the product in the near future.
