Degradation of cytostatic drugs in water by ozonation
(Corresponding) Garcia-Costa A., Gouveia T., Pereira M., Silva A., Alves A., Madeira L., Santos M.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
This work presents the degradation of five cytostatics found in Portuguese WWTP effluents: bicalutamide (BICA), capecitabine (CAP), cyclophosphamide (CYC), ifosfamide (IFO) and mycophenolic acid (MPA) using non-catalytic ozonation. Experiments were performed with 1 µM of each cytostatic at pH: 7.3...Read more

Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Increasing attention has been paid in the recent years to the presence of Organic MicroPollutants (OMPs) in water, being considered a source of a high risk for public health and environment (Rodriguez-Narvaez et al., 2017). The present study belongs to a wide research activity carried out since...Read more
Cometabolic removal of ibuprofen, diclofenac and ciprofloxacin driven by glycerol fermentation in an acidogenic biofilm reactor
(Corresponding) Carneiro R., Gomes G., Zaiat M., Santos-Neto Á.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
The presence of pharmaceuticals in wastewater has increasingly become a public health issue globally due to the potential impacts it can cause on the environment and public health. In this study, we sought to analyze the cometabolic effect of glycerol fermentation on the removal of ibuprofen (IBU...Read more
