Tiny plastic particles are showing up in our drinking water, and this review paper looks at how well water treatment plants can filter them out. The good news: special membrane filtering systems (especially ones that combine filtering with bacteria that break down waste) can remove up to 99.9% of microplastics from wastewater, though scientists still need to solve some practical challenges before these systems can be widely used everywhere. This matters because reducing microplastics in our water supply could help limit our exposure to these particles, whose long-term health effects are still being studied.
