“…PET and PVC were classified into the "very high impact" category, ABS, PS, and PUR into the "high impact", PP and HIPS into the "medium impact" and PA6, PC, PE, PMMA, and PTFE into the "low impact". Such categorization was surprisingly in line with recent data providing a risk ranking of the 36 microplastics (Yuan et al, 2022). In this report, the baseline model ranked the polymers according to the calculated risk factor.…”

“…Polymer detection in this study showed common polymer types that are commercially produced and highly consumed, including PE, polypropylene, polystyrene, and polyvinyl chloride (Wang et al, 2021;Yuan et al, 2022). They are commonly found in the environment because of their frequent disposal (short service life) and light weight, meaning they can easily be carried in the environment (Pinheiro et al, 2021).…”

“…Estima-se que se esse crescente de acúmulo de lixo plástico continue, 12.000 toneladas métricas pertencerão a aterros sanitários e ao meio ambiente em 2050 (GEYER; JAMBECK; LAW, 2017). Além disso, o polipropileno é um dos polímeros pertencentes ao pódio dos quinze polímeros com maior potencial danoso ao ambiente marinho (YUAN;NAG;CUMMINS, 2022).…”
