Review on Aging of Microplastics and Their Adsorption Behavior to Antibiotics in Water Environment
As emerging contaminants,microplastics(MPs)and antibiotics are often detected simultaneously in the water environ-ment,and antibiotics in the water environment are often found on the surface of MPs.MPs can absorb,collect and carry various organ-ic pollutants in water environment through surface adsorption and migration.Compared with the original MPs,the aging MPs has stron-ger adsorption capacity due to smaller particle size,larger specific surface area,and more adsorption sites.The environmental aging mode of MPs and the adsorption behavior of MPs on various antibiotics in water environment after aging were mainly reviewed,The ag-ing method of MPs and the influencing factors and adsorption mechanism of antibiotics was summarized,and prospects for the aging problem of MPs and the effect on antibiotic adsorption was put forward.
