Abstract In many parts of the world, landfills are primary method for disposal municipal solid waste. Waste generation in cities developing countries is increasing as a result rapid urbanization, lifestyle changes, and demographic growth. Environmental pollution getting worse due to lack development implementing advanced waste management techniques, especially such Iran. major contributors presence various types pollutants soil, potentially toxic elements polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, well microplastics. It critical constantly monitor these since they harmful human health natural environment, including water, plants, animals. The goal this study was examine recent studies on soil contamination near Iran comparable instances from other regions world. addition, some potential future directions have been presented order develop establish sufficient monitoring contaminants soils around landfills.

Plastic contamination is commonly reported in urban and rural soils, as well fresh ocean waters. Canada’s government has attempted to limit the of single-use plastic by banning manufacturing selling specific types plastic. In British Columbia, current regulations governing commercial composting state that when compost less than 1% its dry weight representing foreign materials (including plastic), it can be sold used soils. However, due low density potential break down into microparticles, this amount may enough become toxic agricultural This paper studies garden soils summarizes how affect environment with a preliminary examination soil sample. The showed sample contained mainly low-density polyethylene, polyethylene polypropylene plastics (identified through ATR-FTIR) oxidized unoxidized forms come from hypothesizes could microplastic particles. order necessary modify treat differently other (glass, metal, wood).
