[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A method for forming a reactive medium for removing homogeneous and heterogeneous impurities from a fluid comprising:forming a uniform oxide layer on all exposed surfaces of a porous metal substrate;depositing at least one layer of carbon on substantially all of the oxide layer formed on the porous metal substrate;depositing a precursor metal species on the carbon layer; andheating the porous metal substrate having the carbon layer to form active sites on the carbon layer, wherein the active sites include at least partially deoxygenated metal species chemically bonded to the carbon layer.
