A nine-year study on the temporal changes of licit and illicit drug use patterns as revealed from the chemical analysis of influent wastewater from the wastewater treatment plant of Athens

Galani K., Alygizakis N., Borova V., (Corresponding) Thomaidis N.
Topic: 
Emerging pollutants
Daily flow-proportional composite influent wastewater was collected from the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) in Athens during a nine-year sampling campaign (2010-2019). Analytes in influent wastewater are markers of the consumption and the exposure of the chemicals in the population. Wastewater...Read more

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
