Sustainable development is a big global challenge for the 21st century. In recent years, class of emerging contaminants known as microplastics (MPs) has been identified significant pollutant with potential to harm ecosystems. These small plastic particles have found in every compartment planet, aquatic habitats serving ultimate sink. The extract MPs from different environmental matrices tangible and imperative issue. One primary specialties research chemistry simple, rapid, low-cost, sensitive, selective analytical methods extraction identification environment. present review describes developments MP complex matrices. All existing methodologies (new, old, proof-of-concept) are discussed evaluated their usefulness various biotic abiotic sake progress innovation. This study concludes by addressing current challenges outlining future objectives aimed at combating pollution. Additionally, set recommendations provided assist researchers selecting appropriate techniques obtaining accurate results. To facilitate this process, proposed roadmap presented, considering specific compartments under investigation. By following roadmap, can enhance understanding pollution contribute effective mitigation strategies.

In this study, seven roads and parking lots were sampled by a road surface cleaning truck approximately 100 kg of particulate material was collected per site. Thereafter, the samples analysed for microplastics, including tyre wear particles. The analyses revealed that constituted 0.09 % dry mass on average. Other plastic types also identified in samples, but at average 49 times lower concentrations compared to Although used residential, industrial, commercial purposes, no correlation between land use total microplastics identified. Of other than particles, polypropylene an important fraction all whereas polymers present various degrees. contents heavy metals, sulphur, organic carbon measured them determined. A back-of-the-envelope estimation indicated retained permeable pavements non-negligible released lots. Therefore, can serve as tool management pollutant.

As one of the largest sources microplastic particle emissions, tire-road wear mixtures (TRWPs) pose a potentially high threat to various environmental compartments. Their heterogenous properties, from varying size, density, shape, texture, elemental and chemical composition, cause challenging analytical workflows. Current methods for TRWP can be summarized in two main groups: single-particle-based bulk-based methods. Both groups include large variation methods, with different demands sampling sample pre-treatment, possible outputs. This review provides an overview current used studies particularly quantifications, focus on that have been peer-reviewed tested samples. The presents possibilities limitations approaches, as well highlighting gaps knowledge information needed move this research field forward.

The environmental contamination and biological impacts of tire particles their associated chemicals is great concern. Variously termed as wear (TWP), road (TRWP), end-of-life tires (ELTs) to differentiate between possible compositions sources in the environment, these rubber are a major source plastic pollution. array added that leach into environment presents an additional environmental, toxicological regulatory challenge. In this review, we define several topic areas relevant study particles, outlining current state ongoing challenges. Emissions estimates needed establish loads based on dated, summarised dataset rather than measured data, but determining presence hampered by lack standardised sampling methods. Several techniques for analysis available, variability model composition makes selection analytical markers challenging, does commercial standards. Toxicologically, there remains need delineate particle leachate effects and, addition, investigate emerging concern transformation products. Such knowledge required feed processes which currently regulate constituents separately whole tire. Technological solutions capture or replace progressing, often outside academia, it important scientific community collaborate with those attempting reduce impact tires, including industry.

Microplastics (MPs), particles with a size <5 mm, are ubiquitous in water, soil, and atmosphere, have become highly discussed environmental issue. Although atmospheric MPs received less attention than soil their possible consequences being examined more depth. This study systematically reviews the sources, transport, distribution, variations of MPs, interactions other pollutants environment impact on human health based literature. The results show that been identified diverse settings such as urban, sub-urban, remote areas well indoor air. These airborne can originate from terrestrial sources like landfills, synthetic clothing, plastic manufacturing, use recycling activities, aquatic resulting bubble bursting. outdoor MP abundance was detected range 2 to 1159 MP/m2/day depositions 0 224 MP/m3 suspended samples, while significantly higher observed indoors ranging 22 760,000 0.4 1583 MP/m3. distribution characteristics affected by several factors urbanization, anthropogenic environments seasons. Atmospheric transport occurs through suspension, horizontal deposition processes greatly influenced morphology MP, wind speed direction, precipitation factors. path atmosphere is studied Lagrangian models conducting backward trajectory simulations estimate linear trajectories at sampling locations discern potential origin travel distance. also interact variety chemical microorganisms thus act vector for pollutant transport. toxicity may be increased release pathogens contaminants into environment, thereby increasing risk humans.
