Triclosan occurrence in European Sewage Treatment Plants and risk assessment for the European rivers
Thomaidi V., Matsoukas C., (Corresponding) Stasinakis A.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
The purpose of this study was to estimate the environmental risk associated with the existence of triclosan (TCS) released from municipal wastewater in the European rivers. A literature review was held to record the concentration levels of TCS in effluents of European Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs...Read more

Combined use of anaerobic and aerobic moving bed biofilm reactors for micropollutants’ removal from wastewater
Kora E., Theodorelou D., Herpich A., Gatidou G., Fountoulakis M., (Corresponding) Stasinakis A.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
A novel laboratory-scale continuous flow wastewater treatment system, consisting of an anaerobic moving bed biofilm reactor (AnMBBR) and an aerobic MBBR, was used for investigating the removal of hydroxybenzothiazole (OH-BTH) and selected benzotriazoles from municipal wastewater. The system was...Read more
Development of a non-target screening workflow for the evaluation of micropollutants fate during oxidation processes
(Corresponding) Huynh N., Le Roux J., Guyot J., Moilleron R.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
Non-target screening (NTS) is of great interest for environmental monitoring because it enables the screening of numerous pollutants, including unknown products. However, methods to identify unknowns are still time-consuming and only deal with a limited portion of the signal. The objective of this...Read more
Biological Oxygen-dosed Activated Carbon (BODAC) filters - A bio-based treatment for wastewater reuse and reclamation
(Corresponding) Larasati A., Bernadet O., Pinela S., Meulepas R., Gagliano M.
Topic:
Water and wastewater reuse
Water re-use from municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) effluent has recently gained more attention. This effluent water usually contains nutrients and trace contaminants, such as organic micro-pollutants (OMPs). Conventional municipal WWTPs are not currently designed to completely remove...Read more
