摘要

MicroplasticsMicroplastic arePlastic widelyAdsorption recognizedMicroplastic as persistent pollutants in aquatic environments, but they also pose a secondary environmental threat by acting as carriers for other contaminantsContaminants carrier. Due to their large surface area, hydrophobicity, and surface aging in the environment, microplasticsMicroplastic can adsorb a variety of pollutants, including heavy metalsHeavy metals (Zn and Co), pharmaceuticals, and synthetic dyes such as methylene blueMethylene blue. This study investigates the adsorptionAdsorption of various contaminants onto microplasticsMicroplastic in water, which could affect their bioavailability and ecological impact. Understanding these interactions is critical for assessing the full scope of microplasticMicroplastic pollution and developing mitigation strategies.
