New Insights into the Aging Behavior of Microplastics Accelerated by Advanced Oxidation Processes
Abstract
In the environment, microplastics are subjected to multiple aging processes; however, information regarding the impact of aging on the environmental behavior of microplastics is still lacking. This study investigated the alteration properties of polystyrene and high-density polyethylene microplastics by heat-activated K 2 S 2 O 8 and Fenton treatments to improve the understanding of their long-term natural aging in aquatic environments. Our results indicated that the O/C ratio was an alternative parameter to the carbonyl index (CI) to quantitatively describe the surface alteration properties of microplastics. The correlation model of the O/C ratio or CI versus alteration time was developed and compared by natural alteration of microplastics in freshwater samples. Moreover, the regression equation of the equilibrium adsorption capacity of altered microplastics versus the O/C ratio and average size was proposed. This study is the first effort in differentiating the relationships between the alteration properties and alteration time/adsorption capacity of microplastics, which would be helpful for predicting the weathering degree and accumulation of hydrophilic antibiotics onto aged microplastics in aquatic environments. This research develops promising strategies to accelerate the aging reactions using advanced oxidation processes, which would provide further information to assess the microplastic pollution in actual environments.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
