This book highlights one of the most important water pollutants
known as Microplastics. It has been reported that humans and the
environment are dealing with microplastics particles in water and
aquatic media. Despite the fact that such pollution might have
mainly started out from the sea, it is now in lakes, rivers, ponds
and even drinking water. This book presents as overview of
microplastics in freshwater environments in different regions
around the world. It discusses the ecotoxicological effects of
microplastics, the removal/remediation techniques of microplastics
and the role of water/wastewater treatment plants in spreading
microplastics. This book is a valuable resource, covering wide
aspects of microplastics from sources, detection and
characterization to removal and their fate in treatment plants.
