Samenvatting:

Plastic Pollution in Aquatic Systems: Challenges, Strategies, and Innovative Solutions for a Circular Economy provides a comprehensive analysis of the sources, transport mechanisms, and environmental fate of microplastics, emphasizing their ecotoxicological impacts. The book systematically explores advanced remediation technologies, including membrane filtration, nanofiber-based separation, advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), biodegradation, and nature-based treatment approaches such as constructed wetlands. Furthermore, it examines circular economy strategies, sustainable waste management frameworks, and the development of bioplastics as integrated solutions to plastic waste mitigation.With contributions from leading experts, this book serves as an essential reference for researchers, environmental scientists, policymakers, and industry professionals seeking evidence-based strategies for plastic waste reduction and sustainable development. Through interdisciplinary insights, it advances the discourse on plastic pollution governance and supports the broader objectives of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). - Provides a holistic view of pollution in aquatic systems, integrating science, sustainable measures, and policies - Offers comprehensive strategies for plastic pollution management that are aligned with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) - Covers advanced AI technologies used in real case scenarios to help readers understand new applications
