Summary

This review examined how engineered nanomaterials — including metal oxides, carbon-based materials, and zero-valent metals — can photocatalytically degrade, adsorb, or facilitate removal of micro- and nanoplastics from the environment. Nanomaterial-based remediation strategies represent a promising next-generation toolkit for addressing plastic pollution at scales relevant to water treatment and environmental cleanup.

The broad environmental spread of micro-nanoplastics (MNPs) has set off the need for innovative solutions for their management. Recently, nanomaterials have emerged as efficient plastic degrading agents because of their high specific surface area, ease of tunability,...
