This research addresses microplastic pollution in aquatic environments by developing biopolymer-based methods for their removal. It focuses on synthesizing and applying various forms of chitosan to enhance the coagulation and recovery of microplastics from contaminated water.
Microplastic contamination in aquatic systems has emerged as a global issue with lasting and hazardous environmental impacts.
The present research work aims at remediating microplastics in the native and secondary pollutant laden forms using biopolymer assisted coagulation technique.
The novelty in this research lies in synthesizing, characterizing and applying various forms of chitosan namely, ultrasonicated (Enhanced ortho-kinetic and hydrodynamic interactions between chitosan and microplastic…
