Abstract

The pervasive presence of microplastics in the environment has sparked growing concerns regarding their potential ecological and health impacts. This chapter presents a comprehensive exploration of the application of infrared spectroscopy as a robust analytical tool for the identification and quantification of microplastics in various environmental matrices. It provides an overview of the significance of addressing the microplastic issue and the pivotal role of infrared spectroscopy in this context. The fundamental principles and instrumentation of infrared spectroscopy identify and characterize microplastics in environmental samples and highlights the utilization of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR) for distinguishing various plastic polymers. This chapter also addresses the complexities and limitations in quantifying microplastics through infrared spectroscopy, discussing associated challenges, and proposing potential solutions. Furthermore, it offers an extensive review of existing research in the field, showcasing advancements and methodologies employed for the measurement and detection of microplastics using IR spectroscopy. In conclusion, the chapter outlines prospects and advancements in the detection of microplastics through infrared spectroscopy, emphasizing the critical role of this analytical approach in addressing the global issue of microplastic pollution. This chapter serves as an invaluable resource for researchers, environmental scientists, and policymakers seeking a deeper understanding of and effective solutions for the microplastic pollution problem.
