Microplásticos em Esgotos e Efluentes: Uma Análise Bibliométrica da Produção Científica Global
AI summary Read the abstract
A bibliometric analysis of 1,941 indexed articles mapped global scientific output on microplastics in sewage and effluents, revealing research trends, leading contributors, and knowledge gaps in wastewater-related microplastic contamination. Wastewater treatment plants are recognized as a major pathway for microplastic release into aquatic environments, making this literature synthesis essential for guiding future pollution control research.

Current research trends on microplastic pollution from wastewater systems: a critical review
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers reviewed how microplastics enter, move through, and exit wastewater treatment plants, finding that while larger microplastics are often removed, very small particles under 100 micrometers frequently escape into waterways, and advanced treatment methods like membrane bioreactors may be needed to close this gap.

Researchers conducted a bibliometric analysis of global microplastic research trends following the Paris Agreement and COVID-19 pandemic, identifying rapid growth in publication output and emerging focus areas including airborne microplastics, human health effects, and the pandemic's contribution to plastic waste surges.
Microplastics in Portuguese Effluents: Extraction and Characterization
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers extracted and characterized microplastics from wastewater effluents in Portugal, finding that even treated water released into the environment still carries significant plastic contamination. The results underscore the limitations of current water treatment systems in capturing microplastics before they enter rivers and coastal waters.
