Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitary environmental pollutants facilitated by anthropic activities as wastewaters (WWs) not properly treated or dispersed. Our study focused on the validation of an innovative prototype filter for its future applications in WWs Treatment Plants (WWTPs) to reduce release MPs environment. The aims were: WWTPs resulted catching 85 % and 73 >10 <10 μm, respectively; instead, WWTPs-prototype outputs showed a further reduction 99 92 uncaught MPs. mussel haemolymphs analysis decrease 100 95 %, respectively, both μm filtering treatment against normal outputs. We revealed longer LMS times mussels exposed prototype-filtered (29-41 min) compared raw output (18-24 min). MF q-PCR all studied genes reduced genotoxicity prototype-treated WWs. Hence, results demonstrated efficacy, it will be tested real at field scale next study.
