Summary

This review proposed using metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as an advanced approach for capturing and degrading microplastics in aquatic environments, discussing MOF characteristics tailored for adsorption and the mechanisms underlying capture and degradation. The paper highlighted MOF interaction sites, photocatalytic degradation pathways, and challenges for scaling these approaches.

Microplastic pollution poses a substantial risk to aquatic ecosystems and human health, necessitating innovative strategies for its removal and degradation. The study proposes an advanced approach utilizing Metal–Organic Frameworks (MOFs) for the efficient confiscation and subsequent degradation of microplastics. Through a comprehensive review of relevant literature, this paper discusses the characteristics of MOFs tailored for microplastic adsorption. Moreover, it explores the mechanisms underlying MOF-mediated microplastic capture and degradation, highlighting the role of interaction sites within the MOF. The proposed method offers a promising path for lessening the environmental impact of microplastic pollution.
