High Salinity Alters the Adsorption Behavior of Microplastics towards Typical Pollutants and the Phytotoxicity of Microplastics to Synechococcus
Researchers studied how high-salinity water, such as that produced by desalination plants, changes the way microplastics interact with other pollutants. They found that elevated salt concentrations altered the adsorption behavior of polyethylene and polystyrene microplastics toward heavy metals and organic pollutants. The study also showed that the combination of high salinity and microplastics was more harmful to marine cyanobacteria than either stressor alone.
Heavy Metal Adsorption and Release on Polystyrene Particles at Various Salinities
This study examined how polystyrene microplastics adsorb and release heavy metals at varying salinity levels, finding that salinity significantly influences the sorption behavior and thus the potential for microplastics to act as heavy metal vectors in aquatic environments.
