Currently, a large amount of pharmaceutical waste (PW) and its derivatives are being produced and, in some cases, inadequate management or treatment practices applied. In this regard, research explores the adoption several alternatives to deal with these problems, including biocarbon within framework circular economy. Photocatalytic nanomaterials have been also extensively discussed as feasible way remove compounds wastewater. Although there existing reports area, document provides detailed study synthesis process, experimental conditions, integration photocatalysts, their impact on enhancing photocatalytic efficiency. Additionally, low cost ease fabrication lab-scale microbial fuel cells (MFCs) thoroughly examined. This innovative technology not only facilitates degradation hazardous wastewater but harnesses energy generate electricity simultaneously. The aforementioned approaches covered detail by documenting interesting recently published case studies worldwide. Furthermore, is significant importance because it addresses valorization PW generating valuable by-products, such H2 O2, which can occur simultaneously during photodegradation contributing more sustainable industrial clean technologies.

Globally, roughly more than 400 million metric tons of plastics are produced annually. Similarly, the pharmaceuticals business is rising exponentially yearly, 5.8 %. It expected to increase from USD 714 billion 1454 by 2029. Beyond their intended uses, these substances released into environment as contaminants due improper usage and management practices. Therefore, microplastics (MPs) classified emerging pollutants (EPs), existence in agricultural ecosystems adversely affects soil environmental health, ultimately impacting both ecological human well-being. Pharmaceuticals MP-loaded organic amendments (especially manure) a primary cause pollutants. The increasing application treated wastewater or biosolids irrigation water conditioners, mainly when derived untreated sewage sludge, can introduce MPs farmlands, merging within medium. co-occurrence leads prolonged presence gradual bioaccumulation organisms over time, contributing persistent contamination long-lasting effects on ecosystems. Moreover, EPs have potential alter composition biogeochemistry disrupt overall health productivity. Numerous methods been developed address this issue, including electrochemical degradation, advanced oxidation processes, photocatalytic biosurfactants, micro- nano-bubble systems, ultrasonic cavitation, nanotechnology, constructed wetlands, many hybrid approaches. This review explores extent EPs, interactions, strategies EPs-contaminated environments.
