Summary

This review surveys the distribution of microplastics across water environments and critically evaluates detection and treatment technologies available for their removal. Understanding the current landscape of water treatment options is essential because conventional infrastructure fails to fully intercept microplastics, allowing particles — and their adsorbed chemical contaminants — to reach drinking water supplies and human consumers.

Microplastics are a hot issue in current water environment research. Its small particle size is widely distributed in the water environment within a certain period. In-depth study of the hazards of microplastics and their analysis and treatment methods are the key to...
