Textile Microplastics in the Environment

The 1st Edition of Textile Microplastics in the Environment: Sources, Impacts, and Solutions by Aravin P. Periyasamy provides a targeted reference on synthetic microfiber generation and containment. Published by Wiley-Blackwell, this 2026 volume presents practical frameworks aimed at controlling microfiber contamination across global environments.

The text details environmental and health impacts associated with synthetic particulate shedding, highlighting observed threats to aquatic animal metabolic activities. In addition to biological effects, the volume reviews physical characterization methods alongside current regulatory aspects surrounding fiber discharge.

Designed as a specialized reference for researchers studying fibrous microplastics within materials, textiles, and environmental sciences disciplines, the text bridges analytical monitoring and pollution management. Its structured approach supports academic and laboratory investigations into persistent synthetic contaminants.
