Plastic waste discarded into aquatic environments gradually degrades smaller fragments, known as microplastics (MPs), which range in size from 0.05 to 5 mm. The ubiquity of MPs poses a significant threat ecosystems and, by extension, human health, these particles are ingested various marine organisms including zooplankton, crustaceans, and fish, eventually entering the food chain. This contamination threatens entire ecological balance, encompassing safety health systems. Consequently, developing effective MP removal technologies has emerged critical area research. Here, we summarize mechanisms recently reported strategies for removing ecosystems. Strategies combining physical chemical pretreatments with microbial degradation have shown promise decomposing MPs. Microorganisms such bacteria, fungi, algae, specific enzymes being leveraged remediation efforts. Recent advancements focused on innovative methods membrane bioreactors, synthetic biology, organosilane-based techniques, biofilm-mediated remediation, nanomaterial-enabled strategies, nano-enabled demonstrating substantial potential enhance efficiency. review aims stimulate further innovation methods, promoting environmental social well-being.

Predictions indicate a concerning surge in plastic waste, expected to reach 380 million tonnes by 2040 from 188 2016. Strategies combat this could reduce yearly waste 140 tonnes, but may not fully address existing pollution levels. Urgent action is needed devise safe and effective methods for degrading microplastics. Use of microorganisms ranging bacteria algae help the biodegradation these particles has been employed researched upon extensively. Microorganisms belonging following genus: Bacillus, Actinobacteria, Pseudomonas, Aspergillus, Penicillium, Cyanobacteria various species microalgae have shown remarkable capabilities degrade microplastic present environment. The main focus review highlight potential organisms that can with also touches new biotechnological advancements like use genetically modified aid It highlights gaps research regarding large scale combination other degradation techniques order efficiently safely
