Abstract

Every year plastic production continues to increase along with increasing demand for plastic use, which can affect the amount of plastic waste that pollutes the environment, one of which is in waters. Plastic waste that enters rivers and is decomposed will turn into microplastics. Microplastics can pose a danger to human health and their activities. The aim of this research is to determine the diversity of types and abundance of microplastics in three tributaries of the Brantas River, Surabaya City. This research used a purposive sampling method on 3 tributaries of the Brantas River and carried out 3 repetitions. This research was conducted in October 2023 – March 2024. Water samples were taken using a plankton net with a size of 200 μm. The research results found 4 types of microplastics, namely fragments, filaments, fibers and pellets. The type of microplastic with the highest average is fragments. The colors of the microplastics found included black, transparent and brown. The highest total average abundance of microplastics was found in the Kalimas River and the lowest in the Jagir River.
