To better understand the migration behavior of plastic fragments in the environment, development of rapid non-destructive methods for in-situ identification and characterization of plastic fragments is necessary. However, most of the studies had focu...
The meta-learning method proposed in this paper addresses the issue of small-sample regression in the application of engineering data analysis, which is a highly promising direction for research. By integrating traditional regression models with opti...
Oceans are ultimately a sink of plastic waste. Complex artificial coastlines pose remarkable challenges for coastal plastic waste monitoring. With the development of machine learning methods, high detection accuracy can be achieved; however, many fal...
Pyrolysis, a thermochemical conversion approach of transforming plastic waste to energy has tremendous potential to manage the exponentially increasing plastic waste. However, understanding the process kinetics is fundamental to engineering a sustain...
Plastic products' widespread applications and their non-biodegradable nature have resulted in the continuous accumulation of microplastic waste, emerging as a significant component of ecological environmental issues. In the field of microplastic dete...
Plastic pollution is now ubiquitous in the environment and represents a growing threat to wildlife, who can mistake plastic for food and ingest it. Tackling this problem requires reliable, consistent methods for monitoring plastic pollution ingested ...
Exploring feasible and renewable alternatives to reduce dependency on traditional fossil-based plastics is critical for sustainable development. These alternatives can be produced from biomass, which may have large uncertainties and variabilities in ...
Cities are a major source of litter pollution. Determination of the abundance and composition of plastic litter in cities is imperative for effective pollution management, environmental protection, and sustainable urban development. Therefore, here, ...
Global release of plastics exerts various impacts on the ecological cycle, particularly on primary photosynthesis, while the impacts of plastic additives are unknown. As a carrier of fluorescent brightener, plastic particles co-modify Chlorella pyren...
Microplastic (MP) research faces challenges due to costly, time-consuming, and error-prone analysis techniques. Additionally, the variability in data quality across studies limits their comparability. This study addresses the critical need for reliab...
