Effect of Land Use within Watershed Boundary on the Types of Microplastics Observed in Surface Water

Due to exposure their chemical components, microplastics (<5mm) are byproducts of plastic degradation that can be harmful the environment and human health. Microplastics, one which is in watershed, will present due activity-related irresponsible discharge waste into environment. The watershed's use land has an impact as well. This research aims analyze how different patterns affect types have been observed. research's methodology quantitative includes techniques for spatial, statistical, analysis. In Ciujung polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polyester were observed according study's findings. type microplastic was likely brought on by local activities. On agricultural land, plantations, settlements, fertilization, irrigation, other activities may contribute contamination. vast amount bags bottles left behind either immediately dumped Watershed locals or carried away flow where they eventually degrade microplastics.
