Original abstract
The documentation is modeling the fate of plastic waste in the environment – including propagation and accumulation on land, in water basins, and other environmental objects. As a result, sources of pollution, objects of accumulation, chains of decay products along the propagation paths, and criteria for assessing the state of objects and regions will be revealed. As a result of this study, we plan to obtain maps of the fate of various types of plastic and microplastic in the environment.
