Optimizing Electrocoagulation for Polystyrene Microplastics Removal via Magnetic Separation
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers tested electrocoagulation (EC) with iron electrodes to remove polystyrene microplastics, finding that magnetite formation at intermediate current densities enabled 100% removal from pure water within 5 minutes using magnetic separation, though wastewater achieved only 40–80% removal due to competing non-magnetic iron oxides. This work advances cost-effective, scalable water treatment options for capturing microplastics before they reach aquatic ecosystems.
Enhanced Removal of Polystyrene Microplastics from Water Through Coagulation Using Polyaluminum Ferric Chloride with Coagulant Aids
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers tested enhanced coagulation using modified coagulants to remove polystyrene microplastics from water, finding that surface-modified coagulants achieved significantly higher removal efficiencies than conventional alum. Removal reached over 90% under optimized conditions, demonstrating a practical upgrade pathway for conventional water treatment plants to reduce microplastic discharge.
