The ubiquitous presence of microplastics (MPs) in the environment and living organisms including humans has emerged as a significant global concern in the recent decades. Ambient MPs primarily originate from industrial activities and degradation of larger plastic debris, contributing to both coarse (PM10) and fine (PM2.5) particulate matter. Inhalation

The problem of microplastic pollution is now the order of the day in front of everyone's eyes affecting the environment and the health of leaving creature. This work aims to retrace the history of microplastics in a critical way through a substantial bibliographic collection, defining the points still unresolved and those that can be resolved. Presence

Abstract This chapter briefily introduces the origins of yield and plastic flow, and in particular, attempts to explain the usual assumptions in simple continuum plasticity of isotropy, incompressibility, and independence of hydrostatic stress.

Microplastic and charred microplastic in the Faafu Atoll, Maldives
Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2018Microplastics are recognized as a growing threat for the marine environment that may even affect areas generally considered pristine. In this work we surveyed the microplastic contamination in the Faafu Atoll (Maldives, Indian Ocean) across twelve sampling station, located either inside or outside the reef rim.

Microplastics are not microplastics are not microplastics
Microplastics are commonly defined as plastic particles of varying shapes less that 5 mm in diameter (NOAA, 2024a). Compared to macroplastics waste, which is relatively easy to visualise and trace back to its source, microplastic pollution is largely invisible, yet pervasive, and exerts its toxic effects in insidious ways.openaire +1 more source
The modern world faces an unprecedented challenge in managing waste effectively while striving to reduce our environmental footprint. The dual crises of burgeoning waste generation and climate change necessitate innovative approaches that integrate sustainable practices and advanced technologies.
