Abstract

Mikroplastikler günlük hayatta sıklıklar kullandığımız ve çevreye yayılması kaçınılmaz olan kimyasallardır. Genel olarak 5 milimetreden küçük plastik parçaları mikroplastik olarak tanımlanır. Günümüzde mikroplastik kirliliği kaynaklarının çok fazla olması, kalıcı oluşu ve hem ekosistem hem de insan sağlığına toksik etkileri nedeniyle giderek daha fazla ilgili çekmektedir. Günlük hayat sırasında ve endüstriyel faaliyetler sonucunda ortaya çıkan mikroplastikler kolaylıkla atıksu arıtma tesislerine ulaşabilmektedir. Mikroplastikler, atıksu arıtma tesislerinin verimliliğini azaltır ve çamur hacmini arttırır. Mikrobiyal aktiviteyi olumsuz yönde etkileyebilir. Bu derleme mikroplastiklerin kentsel atıksu arıtma tesislerine etkileri, arıtma yöntemleri ve ileri arıtım yöntemleri ile giderilebilirliğini değerlendirmektedir.

Effects And Treatment Methods of Microplastics in Wastewater Treatment Plants

Abstract

Microplastics are chemicals that we use frequently in daily life and that are inevitable to spread to the environment. In general, plastic parts smaller than 5 millimeters are defined as microplastics and the toxic effects of microplastics are attracting more and more attention today. Microplastics, which are produced during daily life and because of industrial activities, can easily reach wastewater treatment plants. Microplastics reduce the efficiency of wastewater and sludge treatment processes and increase sludge volume. It can negatively affect microbial activity. In this review, the effects of microplastics on wastewater treatment plants, treatment methods and removal of microplastics with advanced treatment methods.
