Release of micro and nano-plastics into the environment during industrial processes - State of knowledge and development of a methodological approach

Objectives

Microplastics, whose presence has been detected in various environmental compartments and in the food chain, are a real concern for the environment and public health. Although many sources of contamination have now been identified and documented, few studies have been able to determine the extent to which industrial processes contribute to this pollution. The aim of this study is to review the current state of knowledge on this subject and to propose a methodological approach to the risk of N-MPs (nano and microplastics) being emitted by industrial processes.
