In recent years, microplastics (MPs) have emerged as a significant environmental pollutant, garnering substantial attention for their migration and transformation behaviors in natural environments. MPs frequently infiltrate porous media such soil, sediment, rock through various pathways, posing potential threats to ecological systems human health. Consequently, the adsorption mechanisms applied been extensively studied. This paper aims elucidate of influencing factors systematic review. The review encompasses characteristics MPs, physical properties media, hydrodynamic factors. Additionally, further clarifies provide theoretical support understanding behavior fate. Furthermore, current mainstream detection techniques are reviewed, with an analysis advantages, disadvantages, applications each technique. Finally, identifies limitations shortcomings research envisions future directions.

Settling plays a crucial role in determining the residence time, distribution, transport, and ultimate fate of microplastics (MPs) aquatic environments. The settling dynamics particles are influenced by their macroscale shape, mesoscale roundness, microscale surface properties, along with ambient fluid flow conditions. Variations wettability submillimeter MPs affect molecular interactions at particle-water interface, altering microscopic field subsequently modifying drag forces during settling. This study examines impact on behavior aged acrylonitrile butadiene styrene measuring velocities contact angles. It was shown that increased promotes settlement MPs. A model incorporating Eötvös number─a dimensionless ratio buoyancy energy to angle-derived energy─is developed quantify relationship between interfacial chemistry hydrodynamic resistance. Unlike conventional models, our considers as key factor controlling MP particles. validated using independently measured data four sets published for Results demonstrate significantly improves accuracy predictions weathering spherical Additionally, integrating shape factor, it effectively accounts irregularly shaped sets. improvement enhances predictability transport pathways, helping assess accumulation zones potential ecological risks marine freshwater systems.

Microplastic risk assessment and removal from the environment require continuous improvements in extraction methods, especially for complex matrices. Here, we firstly established that glycerol possessed flotation capability, evaluated correlation between time recovery, then applied newly developed method to extract microplastics soil samples. Results showed recovery rates of polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), polyethylene (PE) all experimental groups using ranged 93.33% ± 5.77% 100%. It was demonstrated has ability float multiple microplastic polymers with better than those sodium chloride/iodide. Additionally, cost is lower, it can be mixed iodide reduce overall costs, making more economical safer solute. The application this successfully extracted two polymers, PP PS, at 0.11±0.04 items/g tidal flat Baishamen three including PP, PE PVC, 21±0.13 farmland Hainan, China. Therefore, widely used as a fluid extracting environment, providing new reference evaluating pollution.
