Repurposing Aluminum-Based Water Treatment Residual (WTR) as a Filtration Medium for Microplastic Removal: Performance, Mechanisms, and Real-Water Applicability
AI summary
This study examined face mask pollution in aquatic environments following the COVID-19 pandemic, measuring mask debris concentrations and characterizing the microplastic particles generated from mask degradation. The findings document a new category of pandemic-related plastic pollution entering freshwater and marine ecosystems.
Engineered Fe-MOG on P-doped Carbon Enables Robust Removal of Microplastics across Water Matrices
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers synthesized a magnetic iron-metal-organic gel composite anchored on phosphorus-doped carbon derived from Chlorella biomass, achieving 96% removal of polystyrene microplastics from tap water, seawater, and mining water via hydrogen bonding, π-π stacking, and Fe-O complexation.
A review on micro and nano plastics removal from aqueous environment through bionanomaterials
AI summary Read the abstract
This review evaluates emerging bionanomaterials — including layered double hydroxides, magnetic nano-Fe3O4, carbon-based adsorbents, and electrospun nanofiber membranes — as green remediation tools for removing micro- and nanoplastics from water, with some achieving up to 90% removal efficiency. Developing effective, scalable, and environmentally benign removal technologies is urgent given that conventional water treatment plants are poorly equipped to intercept the smallest plastic particles that pose the greatest risk to human health.
