Plastic pollution accumulating in an area of the environment is considered “poorly
reversible” if natural mineralization processes occurring there are slow and engineered …

Abstract Micro/nanoplastics (MP/NPs) are emerging global pollutants that garnered
enormous attention due to their potential threat to the ecosystem in virtue of their persistence …

Microplastics have been reported in wastewater treatment works across the world. The
majority of microplastics are removed during the wastewater treatment process, with removal …

Abstract Knowledge on environmental plastic emission and spatial and temporal
accumulation is vital for the development of successful mitigation strategies and risk …

Abstract Background Microplastics (MPs) contaminate the global marine and terrestrial
ecosystems. This environmental contamination can enter the food chain, with MPs found in …

Microplastics (MPs), as emerging contaminants, have gained increasing global attention
due to their wide distribution and serious threats. Physical techniques are effective for …

Due to their seemingly ubiquitous nature and links to environmental and human health
problems, microplastics are quickly becoming a major concern worldwide. Artificial …

Microplastics (MPs) and its associated organic and inorganic contaminants are one among
the significant health hazards to almost all biota, including human. We investigated the …

In this work, we successfully developed an intriguing preparation strategy to reduce the size-
dependent effect of nanoplastics (NPLs), which is the limitation of NPLs quantification by …

Plastic pollution through small particles, so-called microplastics, is acknowledged as an
environmental problem of global dimension by both politicians, and the public. An …
