Conventional and Biodegradable Plastics, Heavy Metals' Adsorption and Desorption Properties Can be Found

Bala Athulya

Plastics have become an integral part of our daily lives due to their versatility and durability. However, the extensive use of conventional plastics has led to environmental concerns, particularly their contribution to plastic waste accumulation and the release of harmful additives. As a potential solution, biodegradable plastics have gained considerable attention due to their ability to degrade over time. In this study, we investigate the adsorption and desorption properties of heavy metals by comparing conventional plastics and biodegradable plastics. The understanding of these properties is crucial for evaluating the environmental impact and potential applications of these materials.
