Summary

Researchers developed a magnetic iron nano-fishnet made from alkylated nanoscale zerovalent iron grown on cellulose nanofibers that rapidly captures and removes micro- and nanoplastics from seawater, offering a promising remediation tool for marine plastic pollution.

Study Type Environmental

A magnetic iron “nano-fishnet” ( i.e. , alkylated nanoscale zerovalent iron grown on naturally derived cellulose nanofibers (ac-nZVI)) was fabricated for the rapid removal and surface clean-up of micro/nanoplastics from seawater.
