Roles of microalgae-based biofertilizer in sustainability of green agriculture and food-water-energy security nexus.
Thanh Ngoc-Dan Cao,Hussnain Mukhtar,Linh-Thy Le,Duyen P H Tran,M. Ngo,Mai-Duy-Thong Pham,Thanh-Binh Nguyen,Thi Kim Khuyen Vo,Xuan-Thanh Bui +8 more
TL;DR: In this article , a review of microalgae-derived bio-fertilizer-applied agriculture is presented, where the recent challenges of applying bio fertilizers are discussed as well as the perspective regarding the concept of circular bioeconomy and sustainable development goals (SDGs).
Journal ArticleDOI
Presence, variation, and potential ecological impact of microplastics in the largest shallow lake of Central Europe
TL;DR: In this paper , the presence of 7 polymer types of MP in the size range of 50-100 μm was detected in Lake Balaton, which is the largest shallow lake of Central Europe and an important summer holiday destination.
Journal ArticleDOI
Marine Conservation from Microplastics
TL;DR: The cost of these services result negative changes in environment resulting pollution as mentioned in this paper, which tends to minimize and stop environmental rich activities, which leads towards destruction of physical and biological systems in marine environments.

Nano- and microplastics in the environment: a potential threat to in-situ bioremediation of wastewaters
TL;DR: In this paper , the role of microbes such as bacteria, fungi, and microalgae in industrial wastewater bioremediation is discussed, and the potential effects of microplastics on the potential of various microbial species are discussed.

Studies of marine planktonic diatoms: i. cyclotella nana hustedt, and detonula confervacea (cleve) gran.
TL;DR: Bacteria-free clones of the small centric diatom Cyclotella nana Hustedt were isolated, three from estuarine localities, one from Continental Shelf waters, and one from the Sargasso Sea as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accumulation and fragmentation of plastic debris in global environments.
TL;DR: Global plastics production and the accumulation of plastic waste are documented, showing that trends in mega- and macro-plastic accumulation rates are no longer uniformly increasing and that the average size of plastic particles in the environment seems to be decreasing.
Journal ArticleDOI
The pollution of the marine environment by plastic debris: a review.
TL;DR: The deleterious effects of plastic debris on the marine environment were reviewed by bringing together most of the literature published so far on the topic, and a variety of approaches are urgently required to mitigate the problem.

Accumulation of Microplastic on Shorelines Woldwide: Sources and Sinks
Mark Anthony Browne,Mark Anthony Browne,Mark Anthony Browne,Phillip Crump,S. J. Niven,Emma L. Teuten,Andrew Tonkin,Tamara S. Galloway,Richard C. Thompson +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown that microplastic contaminates the shorelines at 18 sites worldwide representing six continents from the poles to the equator, with more material in densely populated areas, but no clear relationship between the abundance of miocroplastics and the mean size-distribution of natural particulates.
