The pollutants can enter water bodies at various point and non-point sources, and
wastewater discharge remains a major pathway. Wastewater treatment effectively reduces …

It has been demonstrated that some conventional microplastics (CMPs) have toxicities to
organisms, however, whether biodegradable microplastics (BMPs) have similar potential …

Microplastics have become predominant contaminants, attracting much political and
