A DFT insight into the potential of cycloparaphenylenes as efficient sensors for detecting Paracetamol

Scientific Reports, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 15(1)

Published: March 9, 2025

Paracetamol (PCT) frequently contaminates natural water sources, posing potential risks to both human health and ecosystems. This study presents a computational investigation into the sensing capabilities of methylene-bridged [n]cycloparaphenylene ([n]MCPP, where n= 6, 8, 10) nanorings for detection paracetamol using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. It was found that stability PCT@[n]MCPP complexes increases with size [n]MCPP nanorings. The energy gap is significantly influenced by presence PCT drug, most substantial change (-44.79%) observed PCT@6MCPP complex. Additionally, non-covalent interaction (NCI) analysis reveals van der Waals forces predominantly govern interactions between calculated short recovery times favorable sensor response factors at 298 K suggest can be used as promising materials paracetamol. These findings underscore valuable candidates identifying eliminating drug from environment.

Performance of an integrated system for the treatment of veterinary hospital wastewaters: assessment of organic load and toxicity levels

International Journal of Phytoremediation, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown, P. 1 - 11

Published: April 17, 2025

Despite its toxic potential, the treatment of wastewaters generated at veterinary hospitals has been neglected. Thus, this is a pioneering study that addresses effluent through an integrated system composed upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB), anoxic filter (AF), aerobic reactor (AR), thickener tank (STT) horizontal flow subsurface constructed wetland (HFSSCW) and parshall gutter (PG) with hydraulic retention time 10 days. Approximately 5 m³ wastewater produced daily, antibiotics analgesics being most commonly used classes pharmaceutical compounds. Several analyzed parameters did not comply national international guidelines. In context, demonstrated good results, achieving mean removals of: 98% for COD 59% BOD5; 87.5% Total N 44% P; 83.8% 69.9% DOC TDC; 95% 65% Turbidity EC; 78% TDS. The bioassays Allium cepa indicated strong genotoxic potential raw wastewater, which was completely eliminated after treatment. it can be concluded showed promising results regarding investigated considered viable alternative to meet disposal limits established in Brazilian standards, as well significantly reduce their potential.

Evaluating Arundo donax efficiency for pharmaceutical compounds removal from synthetic wastewater in horizontal flow constructed wetland

Scientific Reports, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 15(1)

Published: April 21, 2025

Constructed wetlands use vegetation as a natural medium to filter out pollutants from wastewater. It is simple use, low maintenance, running costs, sustainable, and eco-friendly. This has led numerous studies evaluate its performance in treating pollutants, including pharmaceutical compounds, ranging conventional emerging contaminants. However, there still lack of work on removal efficiency compounds individually assessed with parameters removal. In this study, two horizontal flow constructed were fabricated; one wetland was made plants other without plant. The pharmaceuticals used for study are Levofloxacin, Amoxicillin, Ketorolac, Fluconazole Aspirin. water samples collected grab after 24 h duration. non-conventional studied influent effluent From the results, it found that significant efficiencies observed all parameters. above PCW follows order (98%) > Aspirin Levofloxacin Ketorolac (88%) Amoxicillin (52.18%). UPCW (92%) (87%) (79%) (71%) (35%). also concluded results (up 98%) provide higher compare 90%). Further research may concentrate assessing alternative procedures conjunction CWs development.
