Insights Into the Prevalence and Impacts of Phthalate Esters in Aquatic Ecosystems

Frontiers in Environmental Science, Journal Year: 2021, Volume and Issue: 9

Published: July 15, 2021

Phthalate esters (PEs) are by far the most produced and extensively used synthetic organic chemicals with notable applications in many industrial products such as vinyl upholstery, adhesives, food containers, packaging materials, printing inks, cosmetics, paints, pharmaceuticals munitions, insecticides among other. PEs have long been recognised ubiquitous pollutants of prime environmental concern, urbanisation amongst main cause source these compounds. Due to their notoriety, compounds known pose devastating effects living organisms including humans. The presence metabolites aquatic ecosystems is concern primarily due endocrine disrupting carcinogenicity properties. Several research studies reported prevalence, exposure pathways, toxicity, impacts Their principal routes could be direct or indirect, which route include contact, eating, drinking contaminated foods, indirect constitute aerosols, leaching other forms contamination. find way into water systems through means effluent discharges, urban agricultural land runoff, from waste dumps diffuse sources. High-end instrumentation improved methodologies on hand resulted increased ability measure trace levels (μg/L) different matrices ecological compartments lakes, oceans, rivers, sediments, wetlands samples. In light above, this article provides an informed focused information prevalence phthalate related Furthermore, techniques that enabled extraction analysis samples also explained. Future outlooks needs highlighted manuscript. This will better understand temporal spatial distributions aid devising prudent curtail footprints.

Phthalate pollution and remediation strategies: A review

Journal of Hazardous Materials Advances, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 6, P. 100065 - 100065

Published: March 19, 2022

Phthalate esters (PAEs) are normally used as plasticizers and has potential to leach out from various polymeric materials. Their presence in different environmental matrices become a significant concern, they endocrine disrupting compounds causing reproductive, genetical, developmental abnormalities. As result, it is urgent develop robust technology that can mineralize these contaminants the environment. This review focuses on origin fate of PAEs environment, their exposure routes health effects, remediation strategies wastewater. The article largely in-depth understanding physicochemical, biological advanced oxidation processes currently being for treatment PAEs. In addition, based physicochemical properties molecules, adsorption interaction mechanisms with adsorbents introduced. also explores range materials be an adsorbent photocatalyst composite enhance performance by followed mineralization. For large scale removal, semiconductor photocatalysis integrated seems effective technique removal mineralization Finally, scaling up photocatalytic technology, parameters such as, improved reactor design, role water matrix economic aspects were discussed future research directions catalyst agglomeration, modification, synthesis proposed. Therefore, techno-economic perspectives factors like, improving active sites rate, self-cleaning surface, renewable light sources, radical scavenging organic matter recovery need addressed transforming process form 'lab' 'land'.
