초록

인간의 편의를 위해 생산된 플라스틱은 500년 이상 썩지 않고 생태계로 유입되어 육상 및 수생태계를 위협하고 있다. 2025년까지 2억 5천만 톤의 플라스틱이 바다로 유입될 것으로 예상되고, 2015년부터 미세플라스틱 관련 연구가 기하급수적으로 급증하고 있지만, 전 세계적으로 미세플라스틱 정의 및 분석 방법에 대한 표준화가 이뤄지지 않고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 미세플라스틱 분석방법 표준화를 위해 우선적으로 수환경에서의 미세플라스틱 분석방법의 최신 연구동향을 조사하여 프로세스 순으로 제시하였으며, 이에 대한 분석방향을 제시하고자 하였다. 추후 미세플라스틱 표준화를 위한 기초자료로써 활용 가능하며, 표준화 이후 더욱 효과적인 미세플라스틱 관리 정책이 마련될 것으로 기대한다.

Human-made plastics takes more than 500 years to break down and have been introduced into the ecosystem, threatening terrestrial and aquatic organisms. By 2025, there will be more than 250 million tons of plastics in the ocean. Although studies regarding microplastics have been exponentially increasing since 2015, international standards for defining the size classification for microplastics, as well as methods for qualitative/quantitative analysis have not been concluded yet. Thus, in this study, the latest trends in analytical methodologies have been reviewed. Further, the study suggests directions for future research approaches can be taken to analyze aquatic microplastics, which could be as useful information for establishing effective microplastic management policy via standardization in microplastic analysis.
