This book summarizes recent findings on the sources, behavior, transformation, toxicity and remediation of microplastics, with focus on soils, water, wastewater, air, soils, plants and corals. Advanced methods for sampling, characterization, removal and degradation of microplastics UR - http://libcon.rec.uabc.mx:2048/login?url=https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-36351-1 ER -
