Summary

A Vietnamese survey found that 57% of households dispose of plastic waste rather than recycling it, and researchers detected microplastics in surface water samples from the Saigon-Dong Nai river system. The study proposes solutions based on SWOT analysis to reduce plastic waste and prevent microplastic pollution while supporting sustainable development goals.

Plastics are versatile materials, but the way we are using them is extremely wasteful.The study conducted a survey on the current status of plastic waste in the residential community of Ho Chi Minh City and neighboring provinces, consulted experts and discovered the presence of microplastics in surface water samples of Saigon -Dong Nai.Research results have shown that 10% of households have the habit of self-recycling for their own use, 33% of households sell scrap and up to 57% of households have the habit of disposing of plastic waste.The study has determined that if plastic waste becomes a resource for the production of recycled products, it will provide an opportunity to generate hundreds of billions of dong per month and propose an appropriate process for recycling plastic waste.In addition, the solution SWOT assessment results also showed that there are 5 strengths of 3.38-4.75points, 7 weaknesses with 3.35-3.77points, 4 opportunities with 4.08-4.4points and 4 risk points 3.48-3.71points.The evaluation results suggest solutions to reduce plastic waste to prevent microplastic pollution, bringing practical meaning and playing a role in sustainable development.

Nghiên cứu mức độ ô nhiễm vi nhựa trong nước và trầm tích sông Sài Gòn–Đồng Nai

This Vietnamese-language study investigated microplastic pollution levels in water and sediments of the Saigon-Dong Nai River system. River systems like these are major transport pathways for microplastics from land-based sources into the ocean.

Sources of microplastic pollution in the Saigon-Dong Nai rivers, potential risks affecting human health and recommendations for mitigation solutions

Sampling of the Saigon-Dong Nai river system in Vietnam detected microplastic fragments, films, and fibres at concentrations of up to 715,000 particles per cubic metre, primarily sourced from urban runoff, wastewater, and industrial discharge. Because these rivers supply drinking water and support subsistence fishing for millions of people, the findings highlight a significant and largely unquantified human exposure pathway to microplastics in a rapidly urbanising region.
