Abstract

One of the most acute problems caused by the rapid development of technology is the accumulation of plastic garbage in various forms in the environment. The main criterion for observation was the systematic coast pollution with plastic waste. Considering the anthropogenic origin of the materials that give rise to microplastics in water, according to these recommendations, its complete absence in the water of open reservoirs, both marine and freshwater, is optimal for humans and hydrobionts. The state monitoring program includes only stations in the deep part of the Neva Bay. Until now, the methods of selection and determination of microplastics in water are not standardized, there are no uniform evaluation criteria. Summarizing the data for 2-3 years, it is difficult to talk about any patterns and trends in the distribution of microplastic particles
