“…In areas of faster water flow, plastic is easier to carry and resuspend. Furthermore, areas of lower salinity show an increase in plastic deposition as a result of an increase in plastic density [12]. Ultimately, the exact distribution of MPs in the water column is still unknown [13].…”

“…MPs from cosmetics, cleaning products, medicines, and mostly from washing machines that release microfibers end up in municipal wastewater [11]. Microfibers come from synthetic fabrics from which much of the garment is made [12]. Furthermore, due to microscopic sizes, particles pass through filters on wastewater treatment plants, and end up in rivers or soil by directly discharged treated water or using waste sludge [14,15].…”
