Summary
Researchers tested a bacterial-algal symbiotic system enhanced by a 150 mT static magnetic field to remove microplastics from simulated seawater, finding that while the magnetic field improved nutrient removal and microbial growth, microplastic accumulation above 1.5 g/L disrupted the community structure and reduced nitrogen removal efficiency to roughly 40%.
