Micro-robots degrade plastic in water and soil
Researchers in the Czech Republic have developed microscopic robots made from MXene material, which utilize magnetic guidance to collect microplastic particles from water and soil. Laboratory experiments showed that these robots can remove up to 94% of plastics from water and 81% from soil within one hour, demonstrating a strong ability to attract and magnetically recover pollutants. The technology is still in the testing phase and requires field trials to assess its effectiveness and safety, with particular focus on preventing metal ion leakage and ensuring complete recovery of the robots.
