Summary

Researchers quantified the self-purification efficiency of water-sediment interfaces during natural and artificial aquifer recharge, investigating how microplastics transfer through infiltration practices and impact the ecological functioning of these interfaces and groundwater quality. The study examined the mechanisms by which infiltration systems either retain or transmit microplastics during subsurface water movement.
