Abstract
The ecological and biological risks associated with microplastics have been increasing in recent years. The standard procedures for soil microplastic identification are time-consuming and require standardization. This study provides an in-depth examination of non-destructive methods for detecting soil microplastics, namely spectroscopy and hyperspectral imaging. Existing approaches, difficulties, and research in this field are presented, highlighting the necessity for an extensive library and sophisticated modeling to address the diverse characteristics of soils and microplastics. This study also identifies knowledge gaps and offers recommendations for future research to improve our understanding of and ability to handle further microplastic contamination.
