Tire materials are a significant proportion of the (micro)plastics in the environment that until today have been clearly overlooked.

PET is a ubiquitous material because of its robust properties.

This book chapter addresses goals 9, 12 and 15 by looking at how green nanotechnology can facilitate sustainable methods leading to reduced environmental impacts, improved conservation, and the protection of resources and human health.

This book chapter addresses goals 12, 7, 11 and 15 by looking at the environmental and economic impact of the utilization of biomass resources.

Nanoplastic is an emerging topic of relevance in environmental science.

The built environment is responsible for large negative ecological impacts due in part to the vast amount of materials used in construction.

Following a decade of research on the environmental impacts of microplastics, a knowledge gap remains on the processes by which micro and nanoplastics pass across biological barriers, enter cells a

Characterising microplastics based on spectroscopic measurements is one key step of many studies that analyse the fate of microplastics in the environment.

Microplastics (MP) (5 mm) are crucial pollution which are widely distributes in the environment.

Interest about interactions between microplastics and organisms is on the rise.
