Extent and distribution of microplastic contamination in the benthic sediment of Turag river in Bangladesh

Tofa T., (Corresponding) Chowdhury V., Nur S., Chowdhury M.

Topic:

Microplastics in water treatment: fate, toxicity assessment and removal technologies

Microplastics are ubiquitous in the aquatic environment. However, a limited number of studies have been conducted on the quantification of accumulated microplastics in benthic sediments of freshwater bodies, which pose threat to the health of benthic communities through food chain contamination...Read more
