Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of marine microplastic particle analysis, in particular, to a marine microplastic particle identification and detection device and method combining dielectrophoresis and laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy. Background technique [0002] Microplastics refer to those plastic fragments and particles with a diameter of less than 5 mm. In fact, the particle size of microplastics ranges from a few microns to a few millimeters, and is a mixture of heterogeneous plastic particles of various shapes. It is called "PM2.5 in the sea". Compared with "white pollution" plastics, the harm of marine microplastic particles is reflected in the small diameter of the particles, which is more harmful to the environment. [0003] Research has shown that microplastics become another non-negligible threat in the marine environment and have been detected globally, with large numbers of microplastic particles found in Africa, Asia, ...
