The aim of this study was to review microplastics (MPs) occurrence in sewage sludge from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) and assess implications of sludge application to agricultural soils. Sludge is a main sink for MPs in WWTPs, highlighting the importance of sludge as a route for environmental exposure. Sludge application on agricultural fields is associated with elevated MP concentrations in soils, potentially affecting soil health. However, prior to application sludge treatments may alter MP abundance and MPs properties, such as shape and size, subsequently affecting environmental risk. Knowledge gaps still exist regarding sludge treatments and their effect on MPs (size, shape abundance). Further investigation is needed to assess th...
