Summary

This conference paper presented methods for detecting microplastics in agricultural soils amended with municipal solid waste composts, using both microscopy and pyrolysis-GC/MS analysis. Compost-applied microplastics represent a significant but often overlooked pathway for plastic contamination of agricultural soils and food crops.
