摘要

Nanoplastics (NPs), as persistent and unregulated aquatic contaminants, evade conventional removal technologies, posing severe health risks and urgently demanding innovative, effective solutions. Here we introduce recyclable magnetic biohybrid nanonets (LAF-IONPs), engineered through in situ growth of iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) on lysozyme amyloid fibrils (LAFs). Stabilized by synergistic interfacial interactions, LAF-IONPs efficiently capture NPs over a wide range of sizes (30–1,000 nm) and chemical compositions across environmentally relevant concentrations and conditions (pH 7–9, high salinity and co-existing pollutants). The superior removal efficiency arises from magnetic active motion and abundant fibril binding sites. Remarkably, LAF-IONPs achieved 98.0–99.9% NPs removal from various real water samples and maintained >95% efficiency over 100 recycling cycles when using a custom alternating magnetic field system. Critically, LAF-IONPs treatment reduced in vivo NPs bioaccumulation by 91.5%. This work establishes a blueprint for designing recyclable biohybrid adsorbents for active, efficient and sustainable removal of NPs and potentially other emerging contaminants.
