There are products that can filter out microplastics already: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;lifestraw.com&#x2F;pages&#x2F;compare" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;lifestraw.com&#x2F;pages&#x2F;compare</a><p>Reviews of Michael Pritchard’s LifeSaver bottle also say that it filters out microplastics and that was first demonstrated in 2007 and two years later recorded at a TED conference: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;m.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=rXepkIWPhFQ">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;m.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=rXepkIWPhFQ</a><p>By now his company also offers a canister-sized product: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;iconlifesaver.com&#x2F;products&#x2F;jerrycans&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;iconlifesaver.com&#x2F;products&#x2F;jerrycans&#x2F;</a>

Not just microplastics, this can remove all sorts of contamination. The filter material is composed of &quot;covalent triazine networks&quot;. Triazine is N3H3. Anybody know anything more about this, how economical this would be to produce at scale, how to depose of it after it&#x27;s saturated, etc?
