Recent trends in degradation of microplastics in the environment: A state-of-the-art review

Journal of Hazardous Materials Advances, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 11, P. 100343 - 100343

Published: July 16, 2023

Microplastics (MPs) have become a global environmental concern due to their considerable harm the environment and humans. However, only few researches been published on total removal of MPs from environment. Traditional treatment procedures were unsuitable for secondary pollutant development toxicity concerns. As result, several strategies treating investigated in recent years. This review covered recently developed degradation strategies, such as abiotic biotic, well relevant mechanisms present state advancement. Every method has its own set limits, advantages, disadvantages. each technique's strengths constraints thoroughly examined. Some recommendations potential research directions provided based gaps information analyzed 109 publications, lack standardized methodologies evaluating quantifying process, pathway analysis, field application. review's goal is give an in-depth account different MPs' disintegration processes, along with summary one's advantages disadvantages limitations.

Microplastics in urban catchments: Review of sources, pathways, and entry into stormwater

The Science of The Total Environment, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 858, P. 159781 - 159781

Urban areas play a key role in the production of microplastics (MPs) and their entry into water bodies. This article reviews literature on sources, transport, control MPs urban environments with aim clarifying mechanisms underlying these processes. Major MP sources include atmospheric deposition, micro-litter, tire road wear particles (TRWPs). deposited from atmosphere are mostly fibers may be particularly important catchments without traffic. Littering attrition textiles plastic products is another source. However, quantities originating this source hard to estimate. TRWPs significant arguably best quantified The mobilization poorly understood but it appears that dry unconsolidated sediments deposits most readily mobilized. Sequestration occurs green understood. Consequently, some authors consider green/pervious parts sinks. Field studies have shown appreciable removal stormwater quality facilities. Street cleaning snow also remove (particularly TRWPs), efficacy measures unknown. Among management facilities, biofiltration/retention units seem more effectively than facilities relying settling. knowledge remains incomplete. Finally, although 13 research papers reported concentrations stormwater, total number field samples examined was only 189. Moreover, results not necessarily comparable because they based relatively small numbers differ widely terms objectives, sites, analytical methods, size fractions, polymers, even terminology. area can thus considered "data-poor" offers great opportunities for further many areas.
