Inhaltsangabe

Microplastics in Aquatic Environments: Sources, Impacts, and Sustainable Management Strategies provides a comprehensive, multidisciplinary exploration of microplastic contamination, covering its sources, transport mechanisms, interactions with environmental pollutants, and potential health risks. From detection and monitoring techniques to advanced remediation strategies, this book delves into cutting-edge scientific research, innovative technologies, and policy frameworks aimed at mitigating microplastic pollution globally. By examining the role of biofilms, pollutant complexation, and emerging technologies such as nanomaterials and bioremediation, the book bridges the gap between scientific discovery and practical solutions.

It is a comprehensive guide for researchers, policymakers, environmental scientists, and industry leaders, offering data driven insights, advanced detection techniques, and actionable solutions to combat microplastic pollution. By addressing the scientific, technological, and policy-related challenges associated with microplastics, this book bridges knowledge gaps and paves the way for effective global action to mitigate one of the most pressing environmental threats of our time.
