Methodologic insights aimed to set-up an innovative Laser Direct InfraRed (LDIR)-based method for the detection and characterization of microplastics in wastewaters
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers developed and validated a method using Laser Direct Infrared imaging technology to detect and characterize microplastics in wastewater. Testing at a large municipal treatment plant in Italy, they found that the facility removed about 82% of microplastics, with most remaining particles smaller than 100 micrometers. The study provides a reproducible analytical approach that could help standardize how microplastic contamination in wastewater is measured and compared across different facilities.
