Plastic waste is a growing global concern due to significant levels of microplastic pollution circulating in soil and waterways.

Wuhan University -led research is reporting the development of a revivable self-assembled supramolecular biomass fibrous framework (a novel foam filter) The foam relies solely on hydrogen bonding between protonated chitin nanofiber sheets and cellulose fibers.
