Composition and concentrations of microplastics including tyre wear particles in stormwater retention pond sediments
2024
Overview
Stormwater is recognised as a vector for microplastics (MPs), including tyre wear particles (TWPs) from land-based sources to receiving waterbodies. Before reaching the waterbodies, the stormwater may be treated. In this study, sediments from six treatment facilities (five retention ponds and a subsurface sedimentation tank) were analysed to understand MP occurrence, concentrations, sizes, polymer types and distribution between inlet and outlet. The concentrations of MPs showed large variations between and within different facilities with MP concentrations of 1,440–72,209 items/kg (analysed by μFTIR) corresponding to 120–2,950 μg/kg and TWP concentrations from
