Microplastic Remediation in Aquatic Environment
Summary
Researchers evaluated biological and physical strategies for removing microplastics from aquatic environments, including enzyme-based degradation and filtration techniques. Developing efficient remediation methods is urgent because microplastics persist and accumulate in water bodies, continuously cycling into food chains and posing long-term risks to ecosystem and human health.
Since microplastics are persistent and bioaccumulative in water, they impose serious environmental hazards. Efficient removal strategies are needed to mitigate their impact. In this chapter, the efficacy of biological degradation by enzyme activity and physical...
