Bioremediation Strategies for Microplastic Removal in Impacted Aquatic Environments
AI summary Read the abstract
This review examined bioremediation strategies — using microorganisms, algae, and other biological agents — to remove microplastic contamination from urban aquatic environments including drinking water treatment plants. Bioremediation offers a potentially scalable, low-cost pathway to reducing the microplastic load in water systems before plastics reach tap water and human consumers.
Microplastics Remediation in the Aqueous Environment
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers reviewed physical, chemical, and biological remediation strategies for removing microplastics from aquatic environments, assessing the strengths and limitations of each approach and identifying the most promising technologies for large-scale environmental decontamination.
Microplastic Remediation in Aquatic Environment
AI summary Read the abstract
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.
Occurrence, Distribution, and Removal of Microplastics from Aquatic Ecosystems
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers investigated the occurrence, distribution, and removal strategies for microplastics in aquatic ecosystems, reviewing how their pervasive presence and resistance to conventional treatment create persistent risks for both environmental and human health.
A Review on Aquatic Impacts of Microplastics and Its Bioremediation Aspects
AI summary Read the abstract
Microplastics enter aquatic ecosystems through improper disposal, causing reduced feeding, lower fecundity, inflammation, and gene-level changes in aquatic organisms. Bacterial biodegradation shows promise as an eco-friendly remediation approach, as microbes can enzymatically break down plastic particles into carbon dioxide, methane, and water.
