: It provides a comprehensive assessment of microplastic abundance and pollution risks in leachate from both controlled and uncontrolled landfills.
: The study highlights the current lack of standardized protocols for extracting microplastics from leachate, which can lead to reporting variations across different studies. 125853
: The research evaluates the removal efficiency of MPs across various treatment stages in controlled landfill facilities. : It provides a comprehensive assessment of microplastic
The identifier refers to a recent environmental research article titled "Microplastics in municipal solid waste landfill leachate and their removal in treatment units: A perspective of controlled and uncontrolled landfills" , published in Environmental Pollution . Key Highlights of the Article The identifier refers to a recent environmental research
Lead-authored by and Sudha Goel , the study addresses a critical knowledge gap regarding how microplastics (MPs) are distributed across different landfill types and the effectiveness of treatment systems in removing them.
Full details and the abstract can be found through platforms like ScienceDirect or Semantic Scholar .
: Findings suggest that while waste management facilities are significant sources of contamination, specific treatment technologies can be optimized to minimize environmental discharge.
