Microplastics are small plastic pieces ranging in size from 1μ to< 5 mm in diameter, are
water-soluble, and can be either primary as they are initially created in small sizes or …

With the rapid growth yield of global sewage sludge, rational and effective treatment and
disposal methods are becoming increasingly needed. Biochar preparation is an attractive …

As one of the typical emerging contaminants, microplastics exist widely in the environment
because of their small size and recalcitrance, which has caused various ecological …
