Summary
This paper reviews technologies and approaches for filtering microplastics out of drinking water and wastewater, evaluating the effectiveness of various filtration methods. As microplastics are now detected in tap water worldwide, improving filtration systems is a critical public health priority.
Study Type
Environmental
My project is focused on removing microplastics from freshwater. I will test the efficiency of a microplastic filter in separating the particles from their environment.
