Extracellular polymeric substances—antibiotics interaction in activated sludge: A review

Environmental Science and Ecotechnology, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 13, С. 100212 - 100212

Опубликована: Ноя. 9, 2022

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.

Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) in sewage sludge management: A call for methodological standardization

Journal of Environmental Management, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 376, С. 124407 - 124407

Опубликована: Фев. 17, 2025

Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) are crucial in sewage sludge management, influencing key processes such as sedimentation, dewatering, and drying. Despite their importance, the lack of standardized methods for EPS extraction analysis has led to inconsistent research findings, hindering a thorough understanding EPS's role treatment. This review paper addresses this issue by critically comparing various methods, emphasizing urgent need standardization field. Standardized methodologies will enable researchers compare studies more accurately derive meaningful insights into across different stages treatment, ultimately advancing knowledge application management. Additionally, summarizes findings from numerous on impact drying, offering holistic view significance Moreover, it explores potential applications, highlighting both future directions challenges associated with production.
