Abstract：
Microplastics (MPs) and metals are currently two of the most concerning environmental pollutants due to their persistent nature and potential threats to ecosystems and human health. This review examines the intricate interactions between MPs and metals in diverse environmental compartments, including aquatic, terrestrial, and atmospheric environments by focusing on the complex processes of adsorption and desorption and the mechanisms that govern these interactions. MPs act as carriers and concentrators of metals in aquatic and terrestrial environments, affecting the bioavailability and toxicity of these contaminants to aquatic and terrestrial organisms. This review highlights the existing challenges and constraints associated with current analytical methods, including microscopy, spectroscopy, and isotherm models in studying microplastic-heavy metal interactions. Moreover, we identified the knowledge gaps and future research directions that can enhance our understanding of the dynamic interplay between MPs and metals in various environmental settings.
摘要：
微塑料(MPs)和金属由于其持久性和对生态系统和人类健康的潜在威胁，目前是最值得关注的两种环境污染物。这篇综述研究了不同环境隔室中MP和金属之间的复杂相互作用，包括水生，陆地,通过关注吸附和解吸的复杂过程以及控制这些相互作用的机制，以及大气环境。国会议员在水生和陆地环境中充当金属的载体和集中器，影响这些污染物对水生和陆生生物的生物利用度和毒性。这篇综述强调了与当前分析方法相关的现有挑战和制约因素，包括显微镜,光谱学,和等温线模型在研究微塑料-重金属相互作用中的应用。此外，我们确定了知识差距和未来的研究方向，可以增强我们对各种环境环境中MP和金属之间的动态相互作用的理解。
