Abstract

Due to increased production and use by humans, plastic trash has become one of the world's rising challenges. The least used approach is recycling. It takes between 100 and 600 years for produced plastics to degrade. As a first step toward developing field-going plastics sensors for studying marine debris and micro-plastics, we present a laboratory study that compares a variety of approaches for plastics identification: XRF (X-ray fluorescence), ATR-FTIR (attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy), NIR (near-infrared) reflectance spectroscopy, and LIBS (laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy).
