Abstract：
UNASSIGNED: This review reveals the role of linear economy prevalence and mismanagement practices in plastic pollution of aquatic and terrestrial environments and related knowledge gaps in Romania while outlining downstream and upstream solutions to reduce plastic pollution and adopt circular economy strategies. Thus, the major aim of this study is the investigation of the stage of scientific knowledge concerning all these demands in the Romanian context.
UNASSIGNED: This work integrates two main approaches: (i) a bibliometric analysis fed by Web of Science and Scopus databases to reveal the current coverage of peer-reviewed literature related to plastic waste in Romania and (ii) a subject-based review to underline the main themes related to plastic waste management, plastic pollution, and mitigating options in Romania in line with circular economy principles.
UNASSIGNED: Reducing plastic pollution requires scientific knowledge, multi-sectoral cooperation, and societal awareness. Following this, the topics of plastic waste and plastic pollution appeared to be under-investigated in the literature considering Romania as a case study and concentrated around the 2020 year, emphasizing, in this way, the trendiness of plastic waste concerns and their management in the current research landscape. Our analysis points out that: (i) Romania is facing massive plastic pollution requiring solid improvements in waste management performances; (ii) few peer-reviewed research studies are performed in Romania for both macro and microplastic concerns with unknown pollution levels in most of its geographical regions; (iii) the plastic waste management is still understudied here, while waste statistics are poorly available at local levels; (iv) the perspectives of circular economy transition are still limited, feeding the plastic pollution in the coming years.
UNASSIGNED: Several knowledge gaps are identified and must be covered by future research such as (i) adjusting mismanaged plastic waste levels to regional waste management performances and determining littering rates in urban and rural areas to improve the plastic pollution modeling inputs; (ii) examining plastic pollution associated with landfill sites and waste imports; (iii) assessing the sectoral contributions to macro and microplastic pollution of aquatic environments related to municipalities, tourist destinations, agriculture, etc.; (iv) determining retention levels of plastic in river basins and role of riparian vegetation; (v) analyzing microplastics presence in all types of freshwater environments and interlinkage between macroplastic fragmentation and microplastic; (vi) assessing the plastic loads of transboundary rivers related to mismanagement practices; (vii) determining concentrations of microplastics in air, soil, and other land use ecosystems.

摘要：
■这篇综述揭示了线性经济流行和管理不善做法在罗马尼亚水生和陆地环境塑料污染中的作用以及相关的知识差距，同时概述了下游和上游减少塑料污染和采取循环经济战略的解决方案。因此，这项研究的主要目的是调查罗马尼亚背景下有关所有这些需求的科学知识阶段。
■这项工作整合了两种主要方法：（i）由WebofScience和Scopus数据库提供的文献计量分析，以揭示罗马尼亚与塑料废物有关的同行评审文献的当前覆盖范围，以及（ii）基于主题的审查，以强调与塑料废物管理有关的主要主题，塑料污染,以及罗马尼亚符合循环经济原则的缓解方案。
■减少塑料污染需要科学知识，多部门合作,和社会意识。在此之后,塑料废物和塑料污染的主题似乎在考虑罗马尼亚作为案例研究的文献中被研究不足，集中在2020年左右，强调，这样,塑料废物的趋势关注及其在当前研究环境中的管理。我们的分析指出：（i）罗马尼亚正面临着巨大的塑料污染，需要在废物管理方面进行扎实的改进；（ii）在罗马尼亚的大多数地理区域中，针对宏观和微观塑料问题进行的同行评审研究很少；（iii）塑料废物管理仍未得到充分研究，虽然地方一级的废物统计数据很少；(iv)循环经济转型的前景仍然有限，未来几年塑料污染。
确定了一些知识差距，必须在未来的研究中加以弥补，例如（i）根据区域废物管理绩效调整管理不善的塑料废物水平，并确定城市和农村地区的乱扔垃圾率，以改善塑料污染建模投入；（ii）检查与垃圾填埋场和废物进口相关的塑料污染；（iii）评估部门对与城市相关的水生环境的宏观和微塑料污染的贡献，旅游目的地,农业,等。；（iv）确定流域中塑料的保留水平和河岸植被的作用；（v）分析所有类型淡水环境中的微塑料存在以及大塑料碎片和微塑料之间的相互联系；（vi）评估与管理不善有关的跨界河流的塑料负荷；（vii）确定空气中微塑料的浓度，土壤,和其他土地利用生态系统。
