Occurrence of caffeine in wastewater and sewage and applied techniques for analysis: A review
(2019-01-01)
Emerging contaminants are substances found in the environment whose concentrations vary from µg to ng L-1 and whose presence in wastewater has gained popularity in the scientific community due to the potential impacts these ...
Development and characterization of activated hydrochars from orange peels as potential adsorbents for emerging organic contaminants
(Elsevier, 2015-05)
Activated hydrochars obtained from the hydrothermal carbonization of orange peels (Citrus sinensis) followed by various thermochemical processing were assessed as adsorbents for emerging contaminants in water. Thermal ...
Silica-based nanomaterials as designer adsorbents to mitigate emerging organic contaminants from water matrices
(2020-12-01)
The abatement of emerging organic contaminants from industrial effluents and wastewater is a key challenge for environmental scientists around the globe. Many industries release their effluents containing organic compounds ...
Review on the occurrence and biological effects of illicit drugs in aquatic ecosystems
(Springer, 2020-05-02)
Illicit drugs (IDs) and their metabolites are recognized as contaminants of emerging concern. After consumption, illicit drugs are partially metabolized and excreted unchanged in urine and feces or as active metabolites ...
Multiresidue determination and predicted risk assessment of contaminants of emerging concern in marine sediments from the vicinities of submarine sewage outfalls
(2018-04-01)
Submarine sewage outfalls (SSOs) are considered the main input source of contaminants of emerging concern continuously released in coastal areas, with the potential to cause adverse effects for aquatic organisms. This work ...
Application of Wastewater and Biosolids in Soil: Occurrence and Fate of Emerging Contaminants
(Springer, 2016-02)
Wastewater (WW) for irrigation and application of biosolids in soil is becoming important as it is going to become very common in the near future. By 2050, the world is going to have four billion people living in water-scarce ...
