ABSTRACT
A virtual prototype was
developed using Design thinking (DT), prototyping and Product Lifecycle
Management (PLM) to study the feasibility of creating a sustainable
microplastic filter made from a polymeric membrane based on
polystyrene/poly(ether-ether-ketone) with clay as a filter element. The general
objective of the article arises with the aim of devising a product for the
future application of a filter attached to washing machines to retain
microplastics that come off clothes during the washing stage. Thus, the
research was based mainly on studies of scientific articles, magazines and
reliable electronic media, and a literature review was also carried out.
Therefore, it presents, Identification, selection of works, periods, authors
and search strategies, sources, period, keywords and, finally, analysis of the
literature collected. For analyzing the results despite the different
approaches, the development of applicable, simple and fast particle detection
methods continues to be a challenge. Although people's attention is now focused
on M/NPs, the focus is still on the detection and danger of M/NPs, and the way
to remove M/NPs is relatively less popular. Therefore, it is concluded that
from virtual prototyping it was possible to develop a product prototype for
better practical knowledge of the applied results of design thinking and to be
able to map the creation process of the future product up to the phase of
proper disposal at stations collection.
Keywords: Prototyping, Polymeric Membrane, Microplastics.
