Conference Theme

Tracing the Invisible:
Scientific Frontiers in Microplastics & Pollution Control

Microplastics represent an emerging and complex environmental challenge, often invisible to the naked eye yet pervasive across ecosystems. The theme of ICM2026 emphasises cutting-edge scientific research, innovative technologies, and integrated approaches aimed at understanding the sources, behaviour, impacts, and control of microplastics.

This conference seeks to explore scientific frontiers that bridge fundamental research, applied solutions, and policy-driven strategies for effective pollution control and environmental sustainability.
