Rapid removal of small particle-sized microplastics utilizing superhydrophobic wood membranes

Researchers developed a superhydrophobic wood membrane that achieves 99.6% removal efficiency for microplastics smaller than 10 micrometers. The membrane, created by treating wood with methyltrichlorosilane, maintained its performance across varying water flow rates and demonstrated excellent reusability and environmental friendliness. The study offers a practical and sustainable filtration solution for removing the smallest and most difficult-to-capture microplastics from water.
