Microplastic remediation refers to environmental remediation techniques focused on the removal, treatment and containment of microplastics from environmental media such as soil, water, or sediment. Microplastics come from larger pieces of plastic that have been broken down and measure roughly 5 millimeters to 1 nanometer in size.[1] Remediation of microplastics is ongoing and necessary to aid in the recovery of environments that have been contaminated by microplastics.
