Surface change of microplastics in aquatic environment and the removal by froth flotation assisted with cationic and anionic surfactants

Hongru Jiang et al.

Summary: Microplastics (MPs) are released into the environment due to the widespread usage and improper management of plastics. This study found that exposure to the natural environment increases the hydrophilicity of MPs. The flotation efficiency of different types of MPs decreased to zero after six months of natural incubation in rivers. Surfactants were applied to enhance the hydrophobicity and flotation efficiency of MPs.

A sustainable approach for removal of microplastics from water matrix using Colloidal Gas Aphrons: New insights on flotation potential and interfacial mechanism

M. Priyanka et al.

Summary: Microplastics are emerging contaminants in the environment and this study proposes an eco-friendly method using Colloidal Gas Aphrons to remove them from various water matrices. The experimental results show that this technique is effective in removing microplastics from different types of water bodies.

Microplastics in two German wastewater treatment plants: Year-long effluent analysis with FTIR and Py-GC/MS

Lisa Roscher et al.

Summary: In this study, the effluents of two German wastewater treatment plants were investigated monthly over one year to understand the temporal input of microplastics (MP) into the receiving river systems. The study revealed elevated MP concentrations during winter months, possibly due to increased discharge and total organic carbon or elevated turbidity values caused by heavy rainfall. This study provides valuable data on the temporal dynamics of MP and highlights the importance of considering background parameters in future monitoring studies.

Transfer of microplastics in sludge upon Fe(II)-persulfate conditioning and mechanical dewatering

Lu Wang et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of advanced oxidation Fe(II)-activated persulfate conditioning on the distribution of microplastics in sludge. The results showed that conditioning affected the distribution of microplastics, and after filter press and centrifuge dewatering, microplastics were mainly found in the filter cake.

Is incineration the terminator of plastics and microplastics?

Zhan Yang et al.

Summary: The study found that a significant amount of microplastics exist in bottom ash generated from incineration, with each metric ton of waste producing a considerable number of microplastic particles. Polypropylene and polystyrene were identified as the predominant types, and microplastics exhibited various forms with abundance influenced by factors such as waste separation, GDP per capita, and furnace types.

Summary: This study investigates the feasibility of using finely milled MSWI BA waste as filler material in Portland cement. The impact of milling on cement hydration appears minimal, and results from mechanical performance tests suggest that all fines examined could be considered as potential filler materials.

The fate of heavy metals and salts during the wet treatment of municipal solid waste incineration bottom ash

Yanjun Hu et al.

Summary: The study found that the leachate from treated bottom ash contained target heavy metals exceeding the limit for urban wastewater discharge, and the concentrations of chloride ions and sulfate ions in circulating water were also higher than the prescribed limits. Locations for bottom ash processing and storage sites should be selected to control and prevent any leaching and runoff impacts.

A review on the characteristics of microplastics in wastewater treatment plants: A source for toxic chemicals

Amir Hossein Hamidian et al.

Summary: Wastewater treatment plants are a significant source of microplastics discharged into the environment, with their characteristics in different environmental matrices still largely unknown. Most microplastics in water samples are composed of PET, PS, PP, and PE, with a significant proportion being removed during primary and secondary treatment stages, and MBR being the most efficient tertiary treatment technology. The majority of microplastics removed during wastewater treatment end up in sewage sludge and are released into the environment via sludge applications.

Public participation and city sustainability: Evidence from Urban Garbage Classification in China

Yunming Kuang et al.

Summary: Urban waste poses a threat to city sustainability, with the willingness of the public to participate in waste classification not always translating to actual behavior. The deviation between willingness and behavior depends on contextual factors, attitudes, and knowledge. Individuals who are more attentive to urban environmental issues and have greater knowledge about waste classification are more likely to participate.

Can incineration completely eliminate plastic wastes? An investigation of microplastics and heavy metals in the bottom ash and fly ash from an incineration plant

Maocai Shen et al.

Summary: Investigation of microplastics and heavy metals in the fly ash, bottom ash and soil samples from a waste incinerate plant revealed the presence of high abundance of microplastics, with heavy metals adsorbed on their surfaces. The column test showed that these pollutants can be significantly dissolved out under external precipitation, leading to potential environmental impacts. This study provides a theoretical basis for further research on the proper treatment of waste ash and its environmental behavior.
