Transport Modeling of Microplastic Particles in Fractured Porous Media
Summary
Researchers modeled the transport behavior of microplastic particles through fractured porous media such as soil and rock, addressing how poor plastic waste management accelerates microplastic contamination of groundwater and subsurface environments with serious implications for both ecosystems and human health.
Contamination of microplastics poses a serious threat to human life and has repercussions for other organisms’ natural systems. Microplastic pollution of the air, water, and soil is accelerating as a result of poor management and reckless handling of plastics...
