Microplastics have become a significant environmental concern due to their persistence, potential to accumulate in aquatic ecosystems, and ability to infiltrate the food chain. Given the limitations of conventional wastewater treatment processes, advanced treatment technologies are being developed to enhance microplastic removal and mitigate their environmental impact. Advanced Treatment Technologies for the Removal of Microplastics in Wastewater presents the pervasive issue of microplastic pollution in wastewater, examining its origins in everyday activities and industrial processes and its spread through aquatic ecosystems. This book provides a deep dive into advanced treatment technologies including physico-chemical and biological methods, highlighting both the progress and challenges in effectively removing microplastics from wastewater. It also addresses the potential health risks posed by microplastic exposure, discussing how these particles act as carriers for toxic substances and their suspected links to health issues in humans and wildlife. With cutting-edge research, practical insights, and a comprehensive overview, this book equips readers with the knowledge needed to understand and address the critical issue of microplastics in our water and wastewater systems.
