microplastics (MiPs) (particles smaller than mm) in marine aquatic systems has become a major worldwide environmental issue due to harmful effects on marine organisms and human health through seafood or salt ingestion Last decades, the land-based origin of MiPs and the role of rivers and estuaries on their emissions to the ocean was considered Occurrence of MiPs in urban compartments, consisting of wastewater, surface water and atmospheric fallout was found in developed countries in recent studies However, in low income countries, characterized by high waste mismanagement, relative studies are still limited This study firstly addresses a preliminary assessment of microplastic (MiP) pollution in atmospheric fallout in Ho Chi Minh City MiP particles (fibers or fragments) was found in all samples collected from three sampling sites: S1- urban area (District 10), S2 - sub-urban area (Cu Chi district) and S3 - Phuoc Hiep landfill The analysis result showed that average concentrations of microplastics in the atmospheric fallout during one-year monitoring were 402 ± 209, 142 ± 64, and 551 ± 139 items.m-2.d-1 from sites S1, S2 and S3, respectively In terms of size range and color distribution, over 50 % of found fibers at all sampling sites was under 1,100µm in length, but difference on surface area of fragments was recorded Items in blue, made up over 95% of total MiPs was the dominant in comparison with ones in pink, transparent, violet, white and green Master Thesis TÓM TẮT LUẬN VĂN Thời gian gần đây, tích lũy khối lượng lớn rác thải nhựa đặc biệt vi nhựa (MiPs) (nhựa có kích thước nhỏ mm) môi trường nước trở thành vấn đề mơi trường lớn tồn Thế giới, gây nhiều tác động có hại sinh vật biển sức khỏe người thông qua chuỗi thức ăn tận dụng độ mặn nước biển làm muối ăn Trong thập kỷ qua, nguồn gốc MiPs lục địa vai trò sông cửa sông việc phát tán chúng đại dương xem xét chứng minh nghiên cứu Sự xuất MiPs thành phần đô thị, bao gồm nước thải, nước mặt bụi khí tìm thấy

nhiễm MiPs bụi khơng khí khơ ướt thành phố Hồ Chí Minh Trong 72 mẫu thu thập ba vị trí: S1- khu vực nội thành (quận 10), S2 - khu vực ngoại thành (huyện Củ Chi) S3- bãi rác Phước Hiệp năm nghiên cứu, vi nhựa (dạng sợi mảnh) tìm thấy Kết phân tích cho thấy mật độ trung bình vi nhựa có bụi khơng khí 402 ± 209, 142 ± 64 551 ± 139 vi nhựa m-2.ngay-1 vị trí S1, S2 S3 Về hình dạng kích thước vi nhựa,

Sum Percentage Cumulative percentage Because of large number of raw data from analyzing physical characteristics of MiPs as length or surface area and color, this appendix can not show all of them In particular, measurement for these data was conducted manually using tools (segment, area) of LAS software, unique size (length of fiber and surface area of fragment) of each fiber or fragment observed from each filter with minimum size (larger than 100 µm) will be determined Therefore, measurement data for total 4,545 microplastic fiber and 400 microplastic fragment found in this study is extremely a lot and can not completely illustrated in this Appdendix Truong Tran Nguyen Sang Page A17 CURICULUM VITAE Personal details Full name: TRUONG TRAN NGUYEN SANG Date of birth: 13/02/1995 Place of
