In the environment, microplastics are subjected to multiple aging processes; however, information regarding impact of on environmental behavior is still lacking. This study investigated alteration properties polystyrene and high-density polyethylene by heat-activated K2S2O8 Fenton treatments improve understanding their long-term natural in aquatic environments. Our results indicated that O/C ratio was an alternative parameter carbonyl index (CI) quantitatively describe surface microplastics. The correlation model or CI versus time developed compared freshwater samples. Moreover, regression equation equilibrium adsorption capacity altered average size proposed. first effort differentiating relationships between time/adsorption microplastics, which would be helpful for predicting weathering degree accumulation hydrophilic antibiotics onto aged research develops promising strategies accelerate reactions using advanced oxidation processes, provide further assess microplastic pollution actual

A review of the removal of microplastics in global wastewater treatment plants: Characteristics and mechanisms

Environment International, Год журнала: 2020, Номер 146, С. 106277 - 106277

Опубликована: Ноя. 20, 2020

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are considered to be the main sources of microplastic contaminants in aquatic environment, and an in-depth understanding behavior microplastics among critical technologies WWTPs is urgently needed. In this paper, characteristics removal 38 11 countries worldwide were reviewed. The abundance influent, effluent, sludge was compared. Then, based on existing data, efficiency compared by quantitative analysis. Particularly, detailed mechanisms including primary settling with flocculation, bioreactor system, advanced oxidation membrane filtration discussed. Thereafter, load ecological hazard discharged from into soil environments summarized. influent ranged 0.28 particles L-1 3.14 × 104 L-1, while that effluent 0.01 2.97 102 L-1. within range 4.40 103-2.40 105 kg-1. addition, there still 5.00 105-1.39 1010 environment each day Moreover, technologies, analysis revealed filter-based exhibited best efficiency. Fibers large particle sizes (0.5-5 mm) easily separated settling. Polyethene small-particle size (<0.5 trapped bacteria activated system. negative impact wastewater plant worthy attention. unknown transformation products their corresponding toxicity need research.
