  1. 1. From Ocean to Table: Microplastic contamination in Nordic salts

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Centrum för miljö- och klimatvetenskap (CEC)

    Författare :Anna Nyika; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Microplastic MP ; MP pollution; plastic pollution; sea salt; rock salt; Nordics; Iceland; Denmark; plastic waste management; human health; marine environment.; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Large amounts of plastic in the oceans originate from mismanaged plastic waste, and microplastics (MPs) are the most common type of waste. They can be found in household products, such as sea salts. Therefore, monitoring pollution levels is essential to improve marine health and food safety. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Extrahering av mikroplaster ur avloppsslam : en jämförande studie

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Karolin Weman; [2023]
    Nyckelord :microplastic; MP; sewage sludge; sludge; extraction methods; mikroplast; MP; avloppsslam; slam; extraheringsmetoder;

    Sammanfattning : Dagens intensiva användning av plast genererar mikroplaster som på olika sätt sprids ut i vår omgivning och medför risker för naturliga system världen över. Dessa mikroplaster härrör från bland annat hushåll, industrier och deponier, och färdas ofta med avloppsvattten och i viss utsträckning dagvatten till reningsverk. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Effects of temperature and microplastic concentration on the consumption of microplastic particles by the detritivore Asellus aquaticus

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Aquatic Sciences and Assessment

    Författare :Yasmin Screech; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Microplastic; Asellus aquaticus; concentration; temperature; faecal pellets;

    Sammanfattning : Microplastic (MP) pollution has now reached a point where particles can be found in every environmental compartment across the globe. However, the ecological and long-term consequences of MPs are largely unknown. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Removal Characteristics of Fibrous and Particulate Microplastics : A Study of the Effectiveness of Coagulation-Flocculation- Sedimentation

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Amrith Kumar; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Coagulation; flocculation; jar test; microplastics; sedimentation; water treatment; Burktest; flockning; koagulering; mikroplaster; sedimentering; vattenrening;

    Sammanfattning : The rapid proliferation of microplastics (MPs) over the last few decades have raised alarms about the major environmental and health impacts posed by this anthropogenic source. The widespread propagation and transport of MP particles in water sources have accelerated the need to study the eco- toxicological impacts as well as the efficacy of various removal mechanisms from these critical water sources.

  7. 5. Characterization of microplastics in wastewater

    Kandidat-uppsats, Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Lina Sabienski; [2020]
    Nyckelord :ATR-FTIR spectroscopy; Microplastic; Plastic pollution; Visual characterization; Wastewater effluent; Wastewater treatment plant WWTP ;

    Sammanfattning : This study aims to detect how many microplastics and what kind are released from the wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) Skebäck, in Örebro. The study was limited to the analysis of three filters with 50 μm mesh size and one filter with 300 μm mesh size. LÄS MER
