Pharmaceuticals of Emerging Concern in Aquatic Systems: Chemistry, Occurrence, Effects, and Removal Methods

Chemical Reviews, Journal Year: 2019, Volume and Issue: 119(6), P. 3510 - 3673

Published: March 4, 2019

In the last few decades, pharmaceuticals, credited with saving millions of lives, have emerged as a new class environmental contaminant. These compounds can both chronic and acute harmful effects on natural flora fauna. The presence pharmaceutical contaminants in ground waters, surface waters (lakes, rivers, streams), sea water, wastewater treatment plants (influents effluents), soils, sludges has been well doccumented. A range methods including oxidation, photolysis, UV-degradation, nanofiltration, reverse osmosis, adsorption used for their remediation from aqueous systems. Many commercially limited by toxic sludge generation, incomplete removal, high capital operating costs, need skilled maintenance personnel. Adsorption technologies are low-cost alternative, easily developing countries where there is dearth advanced technologies, personnel, available capital, appears to be most broadly feasible removal method. integrated (WWTPs). Herein, we reviewed literature (1990–2018) illustrating rising contamination concerns efforts emphasizing adsorption.

Root Uptake of Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care Product Ingredients

Environmental Science & Technology, Journal Year: 2015, Volume and Issue: 50(2), P. 525 - 541

Published: Nov. 30, 2015

Crops irrigated with reclaimed wastewater or grown in biosolids-amended soils may take up pharmaceuticals and personal care product ingredients (PPCPs) through their roots. The uptake pathways followed by PPCPs the propensity for these compounds to bioaccumulate food crops are still not well understood. In this critical review, we discuss processes expected influence root of PPCPs, evaluate current literature on assess models predicting plant compounds, provide recommendations future research, highlighting warranting study that hold promise improving mechanistic understanding PPCPs. We find many PPCP accumulation have received little study, particularly rhizosphere interactions, planta transformations, physicochemical properties beyond lipophilicity (as measured Kow). Data gaps discrepancies methodology reporting so far hindered development accurately predict Topics investigation research include uptake, determining mechanisms accumulation, effects plants, predictive models.
