Microbial electrochemical technologies are promising for simultaneous energy recovery and wastewater treatment. Although the inhibitory effects of emerging pollutants, particularly micro/nanoplastics (MPs/NPs), on conventional wastewater systems have been extensively studied, the current understanding of their impact on microbial electrochemical systems is still quite limited. Microplastics are plastic particles ranging from 1 μm to 5 mm. However, nanoplastics are smaller plastic particles ranging from 1 to 100 nm. Due to their smaller size and greater surface area, they can penetrate deeper ...
