Combining consumption-based approach and chemical analysis for identifying pharmaceuticals occurrence in hospital wastewater
Iliopoulou A., Gyparakis S., Arvaniti O., Sabathianakis I., Karagiannis E., Nika M., Thomaidis N., Kanellopoulou N., Thrassyvoulos M., Fountoulakis M., (Corresponding) Stasinakis A.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
This study aims to compare and correlate the concentrations of pharmaceutical found in hospital wastewater via chemical analysis with those estimated based on consumption data. For this reason, wastewater samples were collected from different points of the sewerage system serving a Greek hospital...Read more
The chemical exposome in maternal blood and placenta and the potential use of sewage sludge to prioritize hazardous substances
Gil-Solsona R., Nika M., Alygizakis N., Bustamante M., Villanueva C., Gutiérrez-Martín D., Restrepo E., Foraster M., Gómez-Roig M., Llurba-Olive E., Sunyer J., Dadvand P., Thomaidis N., (Corresponding) Gago-Ferrero P.
Topic:
Wastewater-Based Epidemiology
Chemicals are part of our daily lives and we are exposed to numerous chemicals through multiple pathways. Relevant scientific evidence contributing to the regulation of hazardous chemicals require a holistic approach to assess simultaneous exposure to multiple compounds. Currently, the main way to...Read more

Improving the homogeneity of a sewage sludge-based phosphorus fertilizer by Monte Carlo simulation of the production chain
Vogt S., (Corresponding) Brueck F., Schnabel K., Weigand H.
Topic:
Solid waste management
Sewage sludge mono-incineration with subsequent phosphorus (P) recovery from the ash is becoming increasingly important in many European countries. Plant operators are facing the challenge to produce a homogeneous P output which needs to conform to fertilizer standards (including trace elements...Read more
