Abstract

Microplastic pollution is an escalating environmental concern globally, and India is no exception. This review synthesizes current research on microplastic contamination in sewage treatment plants (STPs) in India. It explores the prevalence, sources, pathways, and removal efficiencies of microplastics in these facilities. The implications for environmental health, regulatory challenges, and recommendations for improved management practices are discussed.
