The microlitter retention capacity in investigated WWTP was over 99%. The size and shape of microlitter particles has impact on their removal in WWTP. Microlitter balance analysis for the wastewater treatment process for performed. Microlitter sampling protocol for monitoring purposes was investigated. WWTPs can constitute entrance route for microlitter into the aquatic environment.
