ABSTRACT
Microplastics (MPs), especially polystyrene microplastics (PS-MPs), have emerged a new worldwide pollutant, prompting significant public concern regarding their detection in environmental media. Analysis of PS-MPs in soil remains as a challenging task for analysts due to the highly intricate matrices. This work presents a practical approach for detecting PS-MPs in soil, which involves dilute HCl-assisted extraction and gel permeation chromatography- ultraviolet detection (GPC-UV) analysis. The presence of MPs in soil was confirmed through the use of a scanning electron microscope in conjunction with energy dispersive spectroscopy investigation. PS-MPs was isolated from soil, by agitating it with a diluted HCl solution, filtering the resulting liquid, and dissolving the residue on the filter with THF. The extractant was subsequently determined by GPC-UV. The introduction of a small amount of HCl into the extraction system was found to greatly expedite the settling of soil in water and enhance the efficacy of extracting PS-MPs in about 30 min. The linear range of PS-MPs was from 1.0 to 100 µg/mL with R2 > 0.999. Good reproducibility was obtained with the intra-day relative standard deviation (RSD, n = 3) of 1.36 % and the inter-day RSD (n = 3) of 4.78 %. The concentration of PS-MPs in soil samples were N.D. - 2.33 µg/g, and the good recoveries were 76.7-100.3 %. The corresponding AFGEEprer score was calculated to be 0.59, indicating the concept of green analytical chemistry for the pretreatment method. These results indicated that this method has a powerful potential for the accurate and rapid determination of PS-MPs in soil.
