Scientists built a reusable magnetic material that removed more than 95% of microplastics from water

Innovative Australian researchers have developed a groundbreaking reusable magnetic material that effectively eliminates over ninety-five percent of microplastics from water. This remarkable technology also exhibits potential in removing harmful PFAS chemicals. The magnetic powder quickly captures tiny plastic particles and heavy metals, enabling easy recovery with magnets after use, thereby significantly cutting down on waste and operational costs. This advancement offers a promising solutio...
