Topic: 
Microplastics in water treatment: fate, toxicity assessment and removal technologies
The aim of this study was to evaluate the inhibition on the biogas production caused by microplastics (MPs). Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are receptors of MP. After wastewater treating, more than 90% of MP could be retained in the sludge. Anaerobic digestion of the excess sludge can help...Read more
