Soil Environment Pollution with Microplastic, Influence Factors and Environmental Risks
Summary
This review synthesizes research on microplastic contamination of soil environments, covering the major sources of soil microplastics, factors influencing their accumulation and distribution, and the environmental risks they pose to terrestrial ecosystems and agriculture.
Research digest of sources of microplastics in the soil, analysis of impact factors, as well as environmental risks was completed. It was revealed that in recent years, many scientific publications have considered in detail the content, distribution characteristics and impact of microplastics on soils, but there is not enough data on the accumulation of microplastics in soil, and there is no single standard, sampling methods, extraction and devices for the quantitative determination of microplastics in soil. An analysis of the environmental risks associated with the accumulation of microplastics in the soil was carried out and showed a negative impact on animals, microorganisms and plants. It was concluded that there are no studies that reveal the details of the accumulation of microplastics in soil and their interaction with metals and organic pollutants.
