Microplastics are currently considered widespread marine pollutants, accumulating in sediments and shorelines around the world. Spatial distribution of microplastics in marine sediments is consequence of a combination of...

The expanding deployment of biodegradable mulch films in global agriculture aims to mitigate persistent plastic pollution, yet the fate of resulting biodegradable microplastics (BMPs) in soil ecosystems remains poorly ch...

Background: The release of micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs) from tea bags during brewing is a significant, recently identified source of potential human exposure. This systematic review collected global research published ...

Abstract In recent times, both in vitro and in vivo studies have demonstrated toxicological and pathological evidence of microplastic exposure in neurological dysfunction and diseases. The mechanistic linkage of micropla...

The asphalt industry faces growing challenges from stringent greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction mandates and diminishing high-quality virgin material reserves. This review paper positions upcycling as the engineered transfor...

"Este artículo analiza los actores que participaron del proceso doméstico de formulación de la posición argentina sobre el tratado global de plásticos y cómo sus intereses y perspectivas se reflejan en dicha posici...

Abstract Environmental hazards of micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs) and associated chemicals have been investigated for more than a decade. However, the field of human MNPs health risk assessment is still confronted by many...

Abstract The massive production of plastics, together with inadequate waste management, has intensified the problem of plastic pollution. Recently, the scientific community has increasingly investigated the interactions ...

Background Occupational exposure to azodicarbonamide (ADCA) can occur via the respiratory tract or through skin in workplaces, e.g., in the production of plastics and rubber where it is used as a foaming agent or a poros...

This study examines the early effects of Iceland's 2023 extended producer responsibility (EPR) reform for packaging waste, one of the first nationwide implementations of a fully harmonised, producer-funded system in a sm...

Endocrine disruptors (EDs) are exogenous substances or xenoestrogens natural or synthetic, capable of interacting with different systems and altering their normal hormonal regulation, being the reproductive system one of...

Waste materials from agricultural and food packaging usage pose significant health and environmental challenges, where the main source of waste originates from plastics and protein-based amino acids, and their thermal de...

Waste thin plastic wrap in the form of crackle plastic, aluminium coated plastic, other thin plastics, have not yet been widely utilized. Limited un-organic rubish collector willing to receive it. The price is also relat...

With the continuous improvement of living standards， food safety issues have increasingly become a focal point of social concern， among which the problem of plasticizer contamination in food has garnered significant ...

Spelt husk material is a novel packaging solution intended for equal applications as packaging made of expanded polystyrene (EPS). In the future, husk packaging could therefore at least partially substitute plastics in t...

Abstract Replacing petrochemical plastics with sustainable materials requires strategies that combine high mechanical performance with low environmental impact. Here, we report an ultrastrong and tough cellulose paper cr...

The increasing production of plastics worldwide is a growing source of emerging contaminants, particularly bisphenol A (BPA), a major chemical additive in plastics that, as waste, ends up polluting aquatic ecosystems. Th...
