COLUMBIA, Mo. (KY3) - Scientists at the University of Missouri created a new, specialized solvent designed to remove nanoplastics from water.

Nanoplastics are microscopic particles, significantly smaller in diameter than human hair and invisible to the naked eye.

“Nanoplastics can disrupt aquatic ecosystems and enter the food chain, posing risks to both wildlife and humans,” said Piyuni Ishtaweera, a recent alumna who led the study while earning her doctorate in nano and materials chemistry at Mizzou. “In layman’s terms, we’re developing better ways to remove contaminants such as nanoplastics from water.”

As nanoplastics build up, they can lead to cardiovascular and respiratory diseases in people.

Gary Baker, an associate chemistry professor, said his team was able to create a new liquid-based solution that eliminates more than 98% of these microscopic plastic particles from water.

“Our strategy uses a small amount of designer solvent to absorb plastic particles from a large volume of water,” said Gary Baker, an associate professor in Mizzou’s Department of Chemistry and the study’s corresponding author. “Currently, the capacity of these solvents is not well understood. In future work, we aim to determine the maximum capacity of the solvent. Additionally, we will explore methods to recycle the solvents, enabling their reuse multiple times if necessary.”

Studies show humans consume microplastics and nanoplastics in an amount equal to roughly a credit card per week from eating, drinking, or even just drawing breath.

Baker said the next step in developing this technology will be up to engineers, who will work to scale up the process to purify more than one vial at a time.
