Microplastics (MPs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are toxic contaminants
that have been found in marine ecosystems. This review aims to explore the sources and …

The primary objective of this research was to assess microplastics (MPs) in the sediments of
Chilika lake. MPs were extracted from 22 sediment samples using the density separation …

Although the prevalence of microplastics in the atmosphere has recently received
considerable attention, there is little information available regarding the distribution of …

Microplastics are contaminating air, water, soils, both in populated megacities and in remote
areas. Here we review analytical methodologies and occurrence of suspended airborne …

Surface dust from degraded lands is a major global aerosol source, mobilized by
meteorological events like sandstorms. Microplastics (MPs) in dust can be enriched in the …

Microplastics (MPs) represent a contaminant of emerging concern that may negatively
impact lacustrine ecosystems. It is important, then, to manage and reduce the influx of MPs …

Urbanization poses numerous challenges to freshwater biodiversity. This paper describes
two studies with the joint aim of demonstrating the benefits of applying a systematic …

Raman images were constructed for polypropylene (PP) films before and after ultraviolet
(UV) irradiation (100 mW, 248–436 nm) for 10 h using several intensity ratios of Raman …

The growth of global plastic production and the associated increase in microplastic pollution
in the environment has attracted increasing attention from both scientists and the general …

Agricultural water recycling plays a critical role in addressing water scarcity and promoting
sustainable farming practices. Plasma-based pollution treatment technologies often face …
