Microplastics are small plastic pieces, which are less than five millimeters long which can be harmful to our oceans and aquatic life. These predominantly include microfibers from clothing, microbeads, and plastic pellets. Microplastics impact aquatic creatures, turtles and birds. According to the first study on estimation of human ingestion of microplastic, on average a person consumes at least 50,000 particles of microplastic a year and breathes a similar quantity. Ingested microplastic particles can physically damage organs and also compromise immune function and stymie growth and reproduction. This book presents six informative chapters in order to alleviate the above mentioned issues . 410 0$aSustainable Textiles: Production, Processing, Manufacturing & Chemistry,$x2662-7108 606 $aMicroplastics$xEnvironmental aspects 615 0$aMicroplastics$xEnvironmental aspects. 676 $a363.7394 702 $aMuthu$b Subramanian Senthilkannan 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483131703321 996 $aMicroplastic pollution$91906518 997 $aUNINA
