This project investigates the impact of microplastics on soil health, focusing on how they increase soil hydrophobicity and affect the transport of bacteria and viruses. It employs innovative techniques like microfluidics to visualize microbial behavior in contaminated soils, aiming to enhance understanding of micropla…
Microplastic pollution has received considerable attention for the marine environment, but hidden out of sight are microplastics in soil.
In Europe alone, there are likely more microplastics in soil than in all the world’s oceans.
Microplastics can adversely affect soils, but the underlying mechanisms and wider impacts are poorly understood. A significant impact could be increased hydrophobicity of the soil pore surface, which can increase the movement of potentially pathogenic microorganisms.…
