Abstract Antimicrobial pharmaceuticals are classified as emergent micropollutants of concern, implying that even at low concentrations, long-term exposure to the environment can have significant eco-toxicological effects. There is a lack standardized regulatory framework governing permissible antibiotic content for monitoring environmental water quality standards. Therefore, indiscriminate discharge antimicrobials potentially active concentrations into urban wastewater treatment facilities rampant. Antimicrobials may exert selective pressure on bacteria, leading resistance development and eventual health consequences. The emergence clinically important multiple antibiotic-resistant bacteria in untreated hospital effluents plants (WWTPs) has been linked continuous antimicrobials. levels antibiotics their correlation evolution spread resistant need be elucidated help formulation mitigation measures. This review explores frequently detected gives comprehensive coverage bacterial mechanisms different classes through expression wide variety genes either inherent and/or exchanged among or acquired from reservoir (ARGs) systems. To complement removal ARGs WWTPs, upscaling implementation prospective interventions such vaccines, phage therapy, natural compounds alternatives widespread use provides multifaceted approach minimize antimicrobial resistance.

Antibiotics, the most frequently prescribed drugs, have been widely applied to prevent or cure human and veterinary diseases undoubtedly led massive releases into sewer networks wastewater treatment systems, a hotspot where occurrence transformation of antibiotic resistance take place. Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), biopolymers secreted via microbial activity, play an important role in cell adhesion, nutrient retention, toxicity resistance. However, potential roles sludge EPS related removal antibiotics are still unclear. This work summarizes composition physicochemical characteristics state-of-the-art EPS, highlights critical removal, evaluates their defense performances under different exposures, analyzes typical factors that could affect sorption biotransformation behavior antibiotics. Next, interactions between genes analyzed. Future perspectives, especially engineering application for detection defense, also emphatically stressed.

Increasing quantities of pharmaceutical pollutants have been found in aquatic ecosystems. The treatment has a major task that people committed to recent years. removal can be achieved by adsorption and advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). Compared with other carbon materials, biochar strong capacity persulfate activation ability, more importantly, is cheap easy obtain; thus, it higher economic benefits. This study firstly reviews the application drugs (tetracycline (TC), sulfamethoxazole (SMX), acetaminophen (ACT), cephalexin (CPX), levofloxacin (LEV), etc.) through persulfate-based AOPs. In addition, we summarize mechanism for various main attack sites on different AOPs catalyzed biochar. Finally, challenges prospects respect are put forward.
