Summary

This review surveys recent technological advances in microplastic waste management, covering detection, filtration, degradation, and removal strategies across water, soil, and air environments. Effective management technologies are urgently needed given that microplastics have now been detected in human blood, lungs, and placentas, making containment and removal a direct public health priority.

Microplastics (MPs), originating from the breakdown of larger plastic materials (with a size of less than 5 mm) or as primary synthetic particles, represent a pressing global environmental concern due to their persistence, ubiquity, and complex interactions with...
