This volume discusses the adsorptive profiles of microplastic (MP) pollutants, covering their structural identity, sorption ability and degradation due to photolytic, hydrolytic, mechanical, and other environmental factors. In addition to the quantitation of (MPs) in the environment, the book unveils the deleterious effects on aquatic species and humans due to adsorbed inorganic/organic contaminants on the surface of MPs. The present book finds its uniqueness by presenting in-depth discussions on the interactions and mechanisms of microplastics with organic pollutants, microalgae, and human systems. The interactions and mechanisms between microplastics and microalgae are explored to understand the possible remediation pathways in microplastic contaminated water resources. Students and researchers in the fields of environmental science and engineering, biotechnology, aquaculture, marine technology, and water chemistry can benefit from this book. Furthermore, industries, NGOs and stakeholders dealing with wastewater, solid waste/environmental pollution will find this book useful.
Dr. V. Sivasankar is an Assistant Professor in the Post Graduate and Research Department of Chemistry at Pachaiyappa's College (affiliated to University of Madras), Chennai, India since 2014. He received his doctorate in Chemistry in 2009 from Bharathidasan University at Tiruchirappalli, India. He is a JSPS Post-Doctoral Fellow in 2016 from Nagasaki University in Nagasaki, Japan. His research areas include materials synthesis, microplastics, wastewater treatment and microbial fuel cells. To his credit, he has more than 90 research articles in Peer - Reviewed journals and seven book chapters in renowned publishers. He edited books on Surface Modified Carbons as Scavengers of Fluoride from Water (2016), Microbial Fuel Cell Technology for Bio-electricity (2018) and Organic Pollutants - Toxicity and Solutions (2021), Green Chemical Analysis and Sample Preparations: Procedures, Instrumentation, Data Metrics and Sustainability (2023) with Springer. He collaborates and performs research with professors in universities and research laboratories in Algeria, Brazil, France, Japan, Iran and South Africa.
