Microplastics, small sized plastic particles having size <5 mm are formed through primary process including production of beauty products, microbeads and microfibres as well secondary mechanical weathering, friction, aberration fragmentation large plastics. The major sources microplastics land-based ocean-based sources. Microplastic pollution is a serious concern due to the persistent, low biodegradability bio-accumulative behaviour. Microplastics can bioaccumulate in food chain cause ecological human health risk. Hence, it important remove from aquatic ecosystems. removed systems wastewater series processes such physical, chemical biological treatments. In present articles, >250 articles reviewed collect information regarding various methods for removal microplastics. Also, probable control strategies combat with were assessed. It was concluded that recent water treatment efficient removing microplastic pollution. efficiencies ranged between 74 %-99.2 %, 65 %-99.20 % 77 %-100 methods, respectively. Among three physical especially filtration biochar most way (efficiency up 100 %) also creating public awareness, promoting reusing, recycling reducing, application bioplastics wastes. This review will be useful add current knowledge abatement pollution, finding novel solution help policymakers implement effective cost-efficient method microplastics, find out new reduce, reuse recycle

To increase the carbon conversion of char in gasification, this paper aimed to reveal gasification behaviours residues. Char residues with different ash contents work were prepared from Shenmu and Tejing char. Those gasified by CO2 gas mixtures at temperatures. The process residue was end stage corresponding raw char: rate increased first then decreased, whereas kept decreasing during gasification. highest achieved a lower than Catalytic minerals, high temperature, partial pressure benefited that contained more catalytic minerals reactive less sensitive changes temperature pressure. Modified Random Pore Model (MRPM) (RPM) used predict kinetics chars, MRPM describes processes well.
