Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) are found in wastewater, thus, the environment. In this study, current knowledge about occurrence fate of PPCPs aquatic systems-including wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) natural waters around world-is critically reviewed to inform state science highlight existing gaps. Excretion by humans is primary route entry into municipal systems, but significant contributions also occur through emissions from hospitals, manufacturers, agriculture. Abundance raw influenced several factors, including population density demography served WWTPs, presence hospitals drugs manufacturers sewershed, disease burden served, local regulations, climatic conditions. Based on data obtained analgesics, antibiotics, stimulants (e.g., caffeine) most abundant wastewater. conventional removal occurs during secondary treatment, overall exceeds 90% for treatable PPCPs. Regardless, total PPCP mass discharged with effluent an average WWTP receiving (7.35-20,160 g/day) still considerable, because potential adverse effects some (such as ibuprofen) organisms within measured concentrations surface waters.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, high consumption of antivirals, antibiotics, antiparasitics, antiprotozoals, and glucocorticoids used in treatment this virus has been reported. Conventional systems fail to efficiently remove these contaminants from water, becoming an emerging concern environmental field. Therefore, objective present work is address current state literature on presence removal processes drugs water bodies. It was found that concentration most increased during pandemic Before Azithromycin concentrations surface waters were reported be order 4.3 ng L
