The emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the environment has created obstacles when treating infectious diseases with antibiotics. Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) serve as reservoirs for ARB ARGs can disseminate them into environment. It is important to understand address these risks. Generally, professional disinfection processes have been used WWTPs disinfect target water body, goal eliminating pathogenic microorganisms water. However, are not generally considered, spread developed through horizontal gene transfer (HGT). This Review provides a detailed overview application progress different traditional new technologies removing ARGs, mainly focusing on bacterial inactivation mechanisms chlorination, ozonation, ultraviolet (UV) (including UVA, UVB, UVC), sunlight, sunlight-dissolved organic matter (DOM), photocatalysis (PC)/photoelectrocatalysis (PEC). In addition, this also focuses technology involved clarifies underlying environments. Furthermore, by linking inactivation, describes how SOS response cell membrane permeability may be key step conjugation, transformation, transduction ARGs. Finally, given applications current problems associated light-based controlling challenges opportunities facilitate development future technologies. highlights research directions related ARG transmission control.

In the recent years, endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) has received increasing attention due to their significant toxic effects on human beings and wildlife by affecting systems. As an important group of emerging pollutant, EDCs have been detected in various aquatic environments, including surface waters, groundwater, wastewater, runoff, landfill leachates. Their removal from water resources also concern considering growing population as well reducing access fresh resources. EDC wastewaters is highly dependent physicochemical properties given present each wastewater types environments. Due chemical, physical diversities these parameters, variety technologies consisting physical, biological, electrochemical, chemical processes developed for removal. This review highlights that effectiveness selecting appropriate technology; which decision made upon a full characterization. aims provide comprehensive perspective about all current used matrices along with rising challenges such antimicrobial resistance gene transfer during treatment.
