Summary

Researchers developed and tested novel laboratory experiments using advanced oxidative processes to remove microplastics from water, demonstrating that photocatalysis and other reactive oxygen species-based approaches can effectively degrade plastic particles and reduce microplastic concentrations in contaminated water sources.

Microplastic contamination is now a major environmental problem that threatens both human health and ecosystems worldwide. To lessen the effects of microplastics, water sources must be effectively cleaned of the particles. Advanced oxidative processes (AOPs) have...
