Summary

Researchers reviewed physical, chemical, and biological strategies for removing microplastics from wastewater, documenting the significant threat these sub-5mm particles pose to aquatic ecosystems and human health while evaluating the effectiveness and limitations of current bioremediation approaches.

Study Type Environmental

Microplastics (MPs) are minuscule plastic particles smaller than 5 mm in length that have become a significant threat to because of their toxicity in our natural environment and detrimental impacts on our water resources, aquatic life, and humans. Physical, chemical,...
