SYSTEM FOR COLLECTING MICROPLASTICS IN AQUATIC ENVIRONMENTS

Abstract

The useful solution refers to a microplastic sampling system in aquatic environments. This solution introduces a unique and highly efficient microplastic sampling system that overcomes the limitations of traditional methods. This system is designed to collect microplastics from different water layers with high accuracy, ensuring representativeness of various water bodies. Key innovations of the solution include: (1) Optimized pump basket assembly: The special design of the pump basket allows for efficient collection of microplastics in different water layers, including surface and bottom layers; (2) Intelligent sample pumping and distribution system: This system allows for the collection of multiple samples simultaneously, reducing time and increasing sampling efficiency; (3) Accurate flow measurement: An integrated flow meter accurately determines the volume of water sample taken, ensuring the reliability of the analysis results; (4) Safe and easy to operate: The system is designed to be easy to install, operate and ensure safety for users, especially when working on water bodies.Compared to traditional methods, this system offers several advantages: high accuracy, efficient sampling, minimized errors, and applicability to various types of water bodies. Therefore, this solution makes a significant contribution to the research and assessment of microplastic pollution in aquatic environments, supporting the development of effective environmental management solutions.
