Restoration of Micro-/Nano plastics: Contaminated Soil by Phytoremediation
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers reviewed phytoremediation as a technology for cleaning up soils contaminated with micro- and nanoplastics, examining its principles, applicability, and practical limitations. Understanding plant-based remediation strategies is essential for developing scalable, low-cost solutions to reverse the terrestrial plastic pollution that threatens soil health and food safety.
Biotechnology Remediation and Environmental Behavior of Microplastics in Soils: A Review
AI summary Read the abstract
This 20-year review synthesizes global research on microplastic pollution in agricultural soils, covering distribution patterns, migration mechanisms, and the potential of microbial and enzymatic biodegradation as remediation strategies. Given that soil microplastics can enter food chains and threaten human health, advancing biotechnology-based removal methods is essential for protecting both ecosystems and the food supply.
Identification and removal of microplastics from contaminated semi-urban agricultural soil using electrochemical treatment technology
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers tested electrochemical coagulation as a treatment technology for removing microplastics from agricultural rainfall runoff, achieving 98% removal efficiency for low-density polyethylene microplastics within 45 minutes while also reducing chemical oxygen demand and dissolved solids. This high-efficiency electrochemical approach offers a practical on-site intervention for preventing microplastics from mulch-contaminated farmland runoff from reaching drinking water sources and broader aquatic ecosystems.
