Abstract: The increasing use of plastics containing chemical additives such as persistent organic pollutants (POPs) has emerged as a significant environmental and public health concern. These substances, once deliberately incorporated during manufacturing, were later banned under the Stockholm Convention due to their toxic, persistent, and bio-accumulative nature. Despite global bans, certain POPs are still unintentionally generated and released during plastic production, recycling, and disposal. Their presence throughout the plastic lifecycle ranging from manufacturing to use and final disposal raises serious environmental and health concerns. POPs can be emitted into the environment not only through poor waste management and open dumping but also during the use phase of plastic products, such as through indoor dust in households and offices. Inadequate waste handling further contributes to their spread into various environmental compartments such as air, water and soil. This review provides a comprehensive understanding of the emergence and occurrence of POPs in plastic polymers across different environmental matrices. It also uniquely integrates historical evolution, sector-wise emission pathways, and bibliometric trends to underscore the POP dynamics in India's environmental context. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
