Microplastic Bead Problem

Microplastic Bead Problem addresses the overlooked issue of microplastic pollution stemming from microbeads found in common detergents. Highlighting the sources, ecological impact, and potential health risks, the book reveals how these tiny plastic particles enter marine environments through wastewater, often bypassing treatment processes. It further explores how marine organisms ingest these microbeads, leading to bioaccumulation and biomagnification within the food chain, ultimately posing a threat to human consumers.

The book systematically investigates the pathways of detergent microbeads into aquatic ecosystems, detailing their transport mechanisms and ingestion by various marine species. Through case studies, it examines the transfer of toxins adsorbed onto the microbeads and their effects on organismal health, including immune responses and reproductive effects.

Emphasizing empirical evidence and data-driven analysis, the book underscores the urgent need for stricter regulations and mitigation strategies such as improved wastewater treatment and biodegradable alternatives. By integrating knowledge from chemical engineering, public health, toxicology, and environmental law, Microplastic Bead Problem offers a comprehensive view of this pressing environmental issue. Its accessible yet scientifically rigorous approach aims to bridge the gap between scientific research and public understanding, making it valuable for environmental scientists, policymakers, and concerned citizens alike.
