Summary
Researchers evaluated foam flotation as a method for recovering microplastics from sediments, addressing the dual role sediments play as both sinks and potential sources for environmental microplastic redistribution.
Study Type
Environmental
Sediments play a pivotal role in the ecological cycle of microplastics, serving as both a hub for their aggregation and accumulation, and potentially as a source and distributor of these particles. This dual function underscores the importance of sediment analysis in understanding the environm...
