Abstract The presence of emerging contaminants such as pharmaceutical and personal care products in many aqueous matrices have been reported. One matrix is streams wastewater, including wastewater treatment plants inflows outflows flow by-passing plants. Their persistence arises from their resistant to breakdown, hence they may remain the environment over long time, with a potential cause adverse effects endocrine disruption, gene toxicity, imposition sex organs, antibiotic resistance others some aquatic organisms exposed arrays residues products. Among techniques, advanced oxidation processes reported be better technique through which these PPCPs can degraded WWTPs. Heterogeneous photocatalysis using various photocatalyst immobilized on solid support activated carbon, graphene carbon nanotubes AOPs shown viable efficient method degradation. This because, performance most WWTPs limited since were not designed degrade toxic recalcitrant PPCPs. review highlight occurrence, concentration removal efficiency heterogeneous TiO 2 supports.

Depletion and pollution of groundwater, Earth's largest most accessible freshwater stock, is a global sustainability concern. A changing climate, marked by more frequent intense hydrologic extremes, poses threats to groundwater recharge amplifies use. However, widespread human development contamination reservoirs pose an immediate threat resource extinction with impacts in many regions dense population or intensive agriculture. rapid increase studies has emerged, but this also highlighted the extreme paucity data for substantive trend analyses assessment state resource. Noting difficulty seeing measuring typically invisible resource, we discuss factors that determine current including uncertainties accompanying modeling, eye identifying emerging issues prospects informing local management critical regions. We comment on some prospective strategies.

The presence of emerging contaminants in the environment, such as pharmaceuticals, is a growing global concern. excessive use medication globally, together with recalcitrance pharmaceuticals traditional wastewater treatment systems, has caused these compounds to present severe environmental problem. In recent years, increase their availability, access and drugs concentrations water bodies rise substantially. Considered contaminants, represent challenge field remediation; therefore, alternative add-on systems for plants are continuously being developed mitigate impact reduce effects on environment human health. this review, we describe current status pharmaceutical focusing bodies, analyzing development bioremediation especially mycoremediation, removal special focus fungal technologies.

Endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs) as emerging contaminants have accumulated in the aquatic environment at concentration levels that been determined to be significant humans and animals. Several belong this family, from natural substances (hormones such estrone, 17-estradiol, estriol) synthetic chemicals, especially pesticides, pharmaceuticals, plastic-derived (phthalates, bisphenol A). In review, we discuss recent works regarding EDC occurrence compartment, strengths limitations of current analytical methods used for their detection, treatment technologies removal water, health issues they can trigger humans. Nowadays, many EDCs identified amounts different water matrices including drinking thus increasing possibility entering food chain. studies correlate human exposure high concentrations with serious effects infertility, thyroid dysfunction, early puberty, endometriosis, diabetes, obesity. Although our intention is not explain all disorders related exposure, review aims guide future research towards a deeper knowledge EDCs’ contamination accumulation highlighting toxicity risks
