Low-cost 3D-printed filter removes up to 90% of microplastics from water
University of Waterloo engineers have developed a low-cost, customizable 3D-printed filter that removes up to 90% of microplastics from water, offering an inexpensive solution for residential and industrial use. The work is published in the journal Separation and Purification Technology.
A low-cost, 3D-printed filter that can remove up to 90% of microplastic particles in water has been developed by researchers at the University of Waterloo. This filter uses a unique design with an array of specially engineered filter discs made from a biodegradable polymer. The discs are designed to allow water to pass through them.
