INVESTIGATION OF HEAVY METAL ADSORPTION ON MICROPLASTICS
Applied Ecology and Environmental Research, 2019 Microplastics and heavy metals represent two pollutant classes which have adverse impacts on aquatic ecosystems. This study has investigated the adsorption of two heavy metals [Lead (Pb)II and Aluminum (Al)III] on three different types of microplastics [polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyamide (PA), ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA)].
