Insights into the Fate and Removal of Antibiotics in Engineered Biological Treatment Systems: A Critical Review

Environmental Science & Technology, Год журнала: 2019, Номер 53(13), С. 7234 - 7264

Опубликована: Июнь 3, 2019

Antibiotics, the most frequently prescribed drugs of modern medicine, are extensively used for both human and veterinary applications. Antibiotics from different wastewater sources (e.g., municipal, hospitals, animal production, pharmaceutical industries) ultimately discharged into treatment plants. Sorption biodegradation two major removal pathways antibiotics during biological processes. This review provides fundamental insights sorption mechanisms classes with diverse physical–chemical attributes. Important factors affecting behavior also highlighted. Furthermore, this sheds light on critical role extracellular polymeric substances adsorption their in engineered systems. Despite advancements, systems only moderately effective (48–77%) antibiotics. In review, we systematically summarize various discussion efficiency, mechanisms, bioreactor operating conditions removal, recent innovative advancements. Besides, relevant background information including classification, properties, occurrence environment is briefly covered. aims to advance our understanding fate outlines future research directions.

Antibiotics in the Soil Environment—Degradation and Their Impact on Microbial Activity and Diversity

Frontiers in Microbiology, Год журнала: 2019, Номер 10

Опубликована: Март 8, 2019

Antibiotics play a key role in the management of infectious diseases humans, animals, livestock, and aquacultures all over world. The release increasing amount antibiotics into waters soils creates potential threat to microorganisms these environments. This review addresses issues related fate degradation impact on structural, genetic functional diversity microbial communities. Due emergence bacterial resistance antibiotics, which is considered worldwide public health problem, abundance antibiotic genes (ARGs) are also discussed. When residues enter soil, main processes determining their persistence sorption organic particles degradation/transformation. wide range DT50 values for shows that governing depend number different factors, e.g. physico-chemical properties residue, characteristics climatic factors (temperature, rainfall, humidity). results presented this show affect soil by changing enzyme activity ability metabolize carbon sources, as well altering overall biomass relative groups (i.e. Gram-negative bacteria, Gram-positive fungi) Studies using methods based analyses nucleic acids prove alter biodiversity communities presence many types ARGs affected agricultural human activities. It worth emphasizing studies have resulted discovery new enzymes responsible antibiotics. However, ambiguous indicate precise estimation great challenge.

Pharmaceutical and Personal Care Products (PPCPs) in the environment: Plant uptake, translocation, bioaccumulation, and human health risks

Critical Reviews in Environmental Science and Technology, Год журнала: 2020, Номер 51(12), С. 1221 - 1258

Опубликована: Май 6, 2020

Pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs) are considered as emerging contaminants (ECs) in the environment due to their known or suspected adverse ecological effects human health risks. Wastewater, compost, manure application release PPCPs into agricultural soil systems. Since plants can take up such ECs, they a primary window of exposure via route consumption contaminated plants. This may lead deleterious effects. However, various kinds, differential uptake bioaccumulation plant have recently received research interest. Therefore, present article reviewed occurrence antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs, hormones, cytostatic contrast media, β-blockers, blood lipid regulators, antiepileptic antimicrobials, ultra-violet filters, preservatives, insect repellents, synthetic musks by assembling literature. Moreover, translocation under realistic greenhouse condition, factors influencing through explicitly demonstrated this review. Also, risk connected with gap areas were investigated future perspectives.

Microbial degradation of tetracycline in the aquatic environment: a review

Critical Reviews in Biotechnology, Год журнала: 2020, Номер 40(7), С. 1010 - 1018

Опубликована: Авг. 10, 2020

Tetracycline residues have frequently been detected in multi-environmental media, and it could induce antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) microorganisms, which has attracted great attention. Where biodegradation processes may be a promising strategy to remove tetracycline. Thus, this study mainly considers: (i) the degradation of tetracycline by microorganisms including single microbial flora; (ii) elimination during biochemical treatment advanced systems wastewater plants (WWTPs) constructed wetlands (CWs); (iii) biological coupling processes; (iv) confusion problem biodegradation. Furthermore, characteristics comparison discussed detail. Additionally, future research directions are suggested reduce aquatic environment, especially nitrogen conversion process. HighlightsDegradation pure culture strains microflora was significant.Degradation process summarized.Advanced CWs eliminate tetracycline.Future on proposed.

Pharmaceutical Pollution in Aquatic Environments: A Concise Review of Environmental Impacts and Bioremediation Systems

Frontiers in Microbiology, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 13

Опубликована: Апрель 26, 2022

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.
