Extraction of Microplastics from River Water in a Rotating Coiled Column Using a Water–Oil System

Researchers demonstrated for the first time the use of a rotating coiled column with a water-oil system to continuously separate microplastics from river water samples. After separation, pyrolysis GC-MS was used to confirm polymer identity in extracted particles from Moscow River water, establishing proof of concept for this novel analytical approach.

Dynamic extraction of microplastics from simulated and natural freshwaters using a rotating coiled column

Researchers developed a dynamic extraction method using a rotating coiled column to remove microplastics from freshwater samples. The liquid-liquid extraction technique successfully captured microplastic particles from both simulated and natural water sources. The study presents a novel approach to water treatment that could complement existing technologies for reducing microplastic contamination in drinking water.
