Nature-inspired physico-chemical processes for removing nanoplastics from water

In an era where plastic pollution threatens our water sources, science draws inspiration from nature for innovative solutions. This study investigates the use of jellyfish mucus, which exhibits unique properties capable of capturing microscopic nanoplastic particles in water. This natural, efficient approach reduces nanoplastic pollution and promotes environmentally friendly water purification technologies.
