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

To what extent are Bioplastics truly harmless?

(Corresponding) Mastrolia C., Giaquinto D., Hasan S., Zarra T., Belgiorno V., Naddeo V.

Topic:

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

Biodegradability is a growing interest in the field of research in Bioplastics. To what extent are we fully aware of the benign impact Bioplastic has on the environment, especially in water? Wastewater treatment plants are the primary source of microplastic release in the hydrographical...Read more
