Microplastics (MPs) in everyday consumer products have paved the way for high MPs
concentrations in wastewater. Wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) s are the significant …

Abstract Microplastics (MPs)(plastic particles< 5 mm) are globally acknowledged as a
serious emerging micropollutant, which passes through various pathways in natural habitats …

In recent years, the intensification in environmental pollution with micro and nano-plastics
(MNPs) has become a global environmental concern. MNPs are some of the emerging …

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are the primary recipients of microplastics (MPs),
prior to their discharge into natural waterbodies. The aim of this article is to summarize the …

Abstract Nano/microplastic (NP/MP) pollution is a growing concern for the water
environment. Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are considered the major recipients of …

The wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) have long been recognized as a potentially
significant source of microplastic (MPs) pollution in aquatic environments. It is challenging to …

The manifestation of microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) in wastewater treatment
plants (WWTPs) has become a major challenge owing to their unique characteristics such …

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are important sources of microplastics (MPs), having
a high daily discharge of MPs despite a relatively high removal efficiency of MPs. Recently …

Municipal effluent discharged from wastewater treatment works (WwTW) is suspected to be
a significant contributor of microplastics (MP) to the environment as many personal care …

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) discharge metric tons of microplastics (MPs) daily to
aquatic and terrestrial environments worldwide. Herein we provide a holistic review on MPs …
