Investigate microplatics removal using a stormwater bioretention device and develop an image analysis approach to quantify microplastics

Qi, Jiabao

Summary

Researchers evaluated whether a stormwater bioretention device — a filter system that captures runoff — can remove microplastics from urban stormwater, and developed an image analysis method to count and measure those particles. The full results are restricted to university members, but the work addresses a key gap in understanding how green infrastructure can intercept microplastic pollution before it reaches waterways.
