Dust sampling equipment exhibits significant variations over time depending on the operating principle, being influenced by interaction of environmental factors, such as air flow velocity, relative humidity, ambient temperature and barometric pressure. The objective of this study is to perform a comprehensive comparative evaluation between the gravimetric reference method and the optical method for determining PM10 particles in ambient air. In order to allow the evaluation of each observation in relation to method...

Environmental pollution with microplastics is a global concern, accompanied by a large body of research primarily focused on aquatic environments. Microplastic contamination has a considerable impact on both the biological diversity of aquatic ecosystems and human health. In this context, the present paper provides an overview of technologies and measures aimed at reducing the presence of microplastics in surface waters, emphasizing two complementary approaches: the removal of microplastics from transfer pathways ...
