This PhD project will investigate the fate and transport of car tyre and brake wear related microplastics in freshwater and soil environments, analysing how particles interact with the soil and water environments and their constituents (biomolecules / natural organic matter, other particulate matter, microorganisms) while they are transported, how they degrade and what their residence times are under variable soil and flow conditions. The results of this PhD research will contribute to our understanding of the environmental exposure and risks formed by car tyre and break ware products, which is of critical interest to regulators as well as the transport, infrastructure and manufacturing industry sectors.

这个博士项目将调查淡水和土壤环境中与汽车轮胎和制动器磨损相关的微塑料的命运和运输，分析颗粒如何与土壤和水环境及其成分（生物分子/天然有机物，其他颗粒物，微生物）相互作用，当它们被运输时，它们如何降解以及它们在可变土壤和流动条件下的停留时间。这项博士研究的结果将有助于我们了解汽车轮胎和破碎制品形成的环境暴露和风险，这对监管机构以及运输，基础设施和制造业部门至关重要。
