Changes of Physicochemical Characteristics of Microplastics During Water Disinfection Processes: A Review

能源环境保护
Microplastic pollution in aquatic environments has drawn widespread attention. In addition to the toxicity and ecological risks, microplastics can act as carriers of various pollutants. In water disinfection processes, disinfectants can induce changes in

Degradation of microplastics in environment

, 2022
Današnje društvo je iz dana u dan sve svjesnije problema koje uzrokuje odbačena plastika u okolišu. Većina plastike u okolišu se neće u potpunosti razgraditi, nego se raspada na sve manje i manje dijelove tvoreći mikroplastiku.
