Overview

This study identifies atmospheric microplastic concentrations and their sources in urban areas, suggesting potential environmental impacts.

Key Points

  • Microplastic concentrations ranged from 0.0021 to 0.0199 particles/m³, highlighting pollution concerns.
  • Total suspended particulate levels in industrial areas peaked at 427.8 μg/m³, indicating excessive local emissions.
  • Raman spectroscopy identified polyethylene terephthalate (PET) in roadside samples, illustrating common plastic sources.
  • No significant relationship was found between microplastic levels and vehicle numbers, suggesting other pollution sources.
