Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are considered the main sources of chemicals emerging concern (CECs) in aquatic environments, and can negatively impact ecosystems. In this study, WWTP influent, effluent, sludge, upstream downstream waters from recipient were investigated at 15 locations for a total 164 CECs, including pharmaceuticals, personal care products, industrial chemicals, per- polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), pesticides. addition, zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryo toxicity tests...
There is growing worry that drinking water can be affected by contaminants of emerging concern (CECs), potentially threatening human health. In this study, a wide range CECs (n = 177), including pharmaceuticals, pesticides, perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and other compounds, were analysed in raw collected from treatment plants (DWTPs) Europe Asia 13). The impact activities was reflected large numbers compounds detected 115) high variation concentrations the (range 15-7995 ng L−1 for...
Anaerobic digestate based on food waste is increasingly used as fertilizer in production. This study examined the characteristics of anaerobic from three biogas plants Sweden. The characterization included measurements heavy metals (n = 7), chemicals emerging concern (CECs), such currently drugs and pesticides 133), an extended range food-borne pathogens, including two notable sporeformers some widespread antibiotic-resistant bacteria. amounts Escherichia coli, enterococci, Salmonella...
Contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) are a in aquatic environments due to possible adverse effects on the environment and humans. This study assessed occurrence mass flows CECs Sweden's three largest lakes 24 associated rivers. The distribution 105 was investigated, comprising 71 pharmaceuticals, 13 perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), eight industrial chemicals, four personal care products (PCPs), parabens, two pesticides, other (mostly anthropogenic markers). is first systematic main one...
Concerns about environmental contamination by organic micropollutants (OMPs) are increasing, due to their potential bioaccumulative and toxic properties. This study evaluated the risk posed OMPs aquatic ecosystems in Swedish freshwaters. The assessment was based on measured concentrations (MEC) of surface waters upstream downstream wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). A novel optimised quotient (RQf) used identify high-risk substances environment. secondary objective assess impact WWTP...
Pharmaceuticals are emerging as environmentally problematic compounds. As they often not appropriately removed by sewage treatment plants, pharmaceutical compounds end up in surface water environments worldwide at concentrations the ng to μg L-1 range. There is a need further explore single compound and mixture effects using e.g. vivo test model systems. We have investigated, for first time, behavioral larval zebrafish (Danio rerio) exposed binary of an antidepressant drug (citalopram)...
The occurrence and distribution of 111 organic micropollutants (OMPs) were evaluated in water sediment samples from Lake Mälaren, Sweden, using a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method. partitioning contaminants between lake compartments was estimated solid coefficients (Kd) carbon-water (KOC). In total, 30 24 OMPs detected sediment, respectively. Concentrations ranged low ng/L to 89 (lamotrigine) ng/g dry weight (dw) 28 dw (citalopram) sediment. Carbamazepine, lamotrigine,...
