Abstract The upsurge in the usage of plastics on a global scale has led to widespread occurrence microplastics (MPs) aquatic environments. This review starts by outlining current scenario plastic production. It then delves into various sources and their entry systems, including impact fisheries aquaculture sector. detailed analysis methods degradation small sized, MPs followed transport, uptake trophic transference have been reviewed systematically. Besides, summarizes knowledge impacts MPs, additives associated contaminants organisms living environment, particularly fish thriving cultured conditions. effects alone association with other like heavy metals, organic pollutants leachates reveal serious such as cytotoxicity, immune response, oxidative stress, neurotoxicity, barrier attributes genotoxicity among species particularly, fish. In addition, present discusses invasion explores risk assessment both terms exposure toxicological risks biochemical nature, size, shape concentration MPs. management strategies future prospective control hazards also highlighted. summary, outlines sources, fate, environment highlighting need recognize pollution threat formulate prevention, reduce, reuse safe disposal material.

The environmental risk associated with bioplastics has garnered increasing attention. However, their fates and the driving mechanisms in industrial composting engineering, which is a primary method for treating food waste, remain unclear. This study delved into degradation behaviors of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) its correlation PLA-associated bacterial communities simulated waste systems without addition microbial agent (MA). results derived from water contact angle molecular weight (Mn) analyses indicate that exhibited limited capacity polymer. (MA) demonstrated promoting effect, leading to final Mn values 8970 g·mol–1 treatment group 19,324 control group, compared an initial 50,136 influence on manifested later stages composting, showing lower diversity (Shannon index 4.11) compost (4.50). supplementation MA facilitated development biofilms within plastisphere, resulting increased level presence functional bacteria crucial PLA degradation. sheds light underlying under typical conditions, providing insights effective handling evaluation environments.

Global plastic production is increasing yearly, with packaging materials and disposable plastics accounting for a sizable portion of the total. Despite its apparent advantages, resulting waste accumulates in landfills oceans, causing severe environmental public health issues. Shifting from conventional to biodegradable (BPs) increasingly being proposed as an efficient management end-of-life plastics. While several BPs such poly(lactic acid), poly(ε-caprolactone), poly(hydroxyalkanoates) have been widely used, their biodegradation rates often do not meet anticipated level under home-compost or other certain environments (e.g., soil, marine). Recently, enzyme-embedded emerged outstanding alternative currently used synthetic It achieves rapid degradation compostability by introducing specific enzyme into polymer. In this context, review aims summarize recent advances development superior biomaterials. identifies prioritizes critical success factors required BPs. The also discusses challenges application these innovative polymer materials.

The widespread use of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) from packaging to engineering applications seems follow the current global trend. development high-performance PLA-based blends has led commercial introduction various resins with excellent thermomechanical properties. reason for this is progress in field major PLA limitations such as low thermal resistance and poor impact strength. main purpose using biobased polymers polymer increase share renewable raw materials final product rather than its possible biodegradation. However, case applications, focus on achieving required properties maximizing percentage biopolymer. presented review article discusses strategies optimize balance key features stiffness, toughness, heat blends. Improving these requires molecular structural changes, which together morphology, crystallinity, influence processing conditions are subjects article. latest research clearly indicates high potential highly demanding applications. In strength modification, it obtain values close 800 J/m, a value comparable polycarbonate. Significant improvement can also be confirmed results, where deflection temperatures selected types reach even 130 °C after modification. modification discussed confirm that properly conducted process selecting blend components technique allows revealing an plastic.
