Plastics, once addressed as a revolutionary, effective, and beneficial invention, have now become a global environmental nightmare due to the alarming rise of microplastic pollution. This form of pollution is increasingly being recognized as a serious global disorder. Microplastics, whether originating directly from pr...

Microplastics are small particles having a size of less
than 5 mm. These have emerged as one of the most
prevalent contaminants, mainly found in aquatic
ecosystems. They originate from the sources that are
primarily of two types-primary and secondary. Primary
ones constitute plastics in the form of microbeads that
are...

The extensive buildup of plastic waste has become a significant environmental issue, especially due to the conversion of microplastics (MPs) into nanoplastics (NPs). In this review, we address the critical processes that lead to the fragmentation of MPs into NPs, including physical, chemical, and biological degradation...
