TG study on the influence of PET and tyre-based microplastics on soil properties
Original language description
Nowadays, the problems with microplastics, i.e. small plastic particles contaminating the environment, is a subject of heated discussions. The literature data suggest that the microplastics from conventional plastics are not as inert as anticipated, but instead, they impact all environmental compartments including soils. In particular, many studies describe negative effects of microplastics on soil fauna and flora. However, the effects on soil abiotic properties and soil quality have not been sufficiently addressed. In this work we present results from the short- and medium-term experiments. We studied the effects that have microplastics from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and from car tyres on properties of water and soil organic matter in three different soils including chernozem, cambisol and phaeozem. We analysed changes in soil organic matter thermal properties, soil respiration, amount of water and soil aggregation over the period of 15 months to observe their transformation and effects on soi
