A thousand liters of seawater can contain up to 8.3 million particles of microplastics. Until now, identifying these very small particles has been difficult—usually they are only detected once they have accumulated in the bodies of fish. A method developed at VTT utilizes nanocellulose structures for early particle identification. Nanocellulose would allow particles to be captured even before they enter waterways.

“The method provides a way to catch microplastic particles of a size that the human eye cannot detect. These are particles with a diameter of only 100 nanometers.”

"New filtration solutions would allow particles to be captured where they are generated. The solutions could be utilized, for example, in laundry, where microplastic particles are released from fleece clothing and other synthetic fibers. Similarly, we could develop filtration methods for any industry where there is a risk of microplastics being generated and released into waterways."

NCV (Nanocellulose Vehicle)

Kyoto University supported by the Ministry of the Environment, Japan,

Body made from cellulose nanofiber, or CNF derived from wood-pulp, which can be grown, unlike metal which can only be recycled.

CNF is that it’s 80% lighter than steel and 5 times stronger. It’s derived from wood pulp, a raw material produced using forestry and agricultural waste, essentially turning refuse into an incredibly capable material that can replace metal, plastic, and glass.

ANPOLY is spearheading a material revolution by pioneering the development of nanocellulose, a robust, lightweight, and fully biodegradable alternative to conventional petroleum-based plastics. By upcycling agricultural byproducts such as rice husks and spent coffee grounds, the company synthesizes high-performance nanocellulose designed to partially displace naphtha in plastic production. This innovation doesn't just match its predecessors; it enhances structural integrity and functionality across a diverse spectrum of applications, from biocomposites and next-generation batteries to sophisticated biomedical solutions.

Supported by strategic investments from industrial titans like POSCO, Hyosung, and Lotte, ANPOLY is committed to mitigating petrochemical reliance and advancing the global mandate for carbon neutrality. As the world pivots toward a post-petroleum paradigm, ANPOLY is positioning nanocellulose as a cornerstone material, even as it navigates the complexities of industrial scaling and global market competition.
