Investigating the accumulation of 115 pharmaceutical compounds in the water-soil-plant continuum and the leaching potential using lysimeters irrigated with wastewater from a CAS and MBR system, under real-field conditions

Iakovides I., Beretsou V., Christou A., Gkotsis G., Nika M., Thomaidis N., (Corresponding) Fatta-Kassinos D.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

Treated wastewater (TWW) reuse for irrigation is recognized as one of the indispensable practices for the mitigation of water scarcity. However, the presence of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in TWW act as a limiting factor in effectively applying the reuse practices. The possible uptake...Read more

Occurrence and potential accumulation of pharmaceuticals in agricultural soils treated with wastewater under real-world environmental conditions in Cyprus

Beretsou V., Iakovides I., Nika M., Gkotsis G., Christou A., Thomaidis N., (Corresponding) Fatta-Kassinos D.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

Due to water supply shortages that result from climate change, urbanization, regional droughts and pollution, treated wastewater (TWW) is commonly used to irrigate agricultural land in arid and semi-arid regions. Compared to aquatic systems, contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) only scarcely...Read more

Quantitative target screening and soil bioavailability assessment as tools to assess risks associated with wastewater reuse for irrigation

Beretsou V., Nika M., Manoli K., Lundy L., Thomaidis N., Revitt M., (Corresponding) Fatta-Kassinos D.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

Multi-residue analysis of various classes of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) present in wastewater, along with improvements in analytical methodologies, may allow for future application of promising wastewater tracers, thus providing wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) operators and...Read more

Exploring the Living Lab approach for developing sustainable wastewater treatment and reuse systems in Mediterranean agriculture

(Corresponding) Khadra R., Dragonetti G., Paulotto A., Martin I., Arbasi T., Jaouadi T., Mazahreh N., Balawneh A., Carletti A.

Topic:

Sustainable water management in the mediterranean – technological solutions, demonstration and deployment

In the water-poor Mediterranean region, people have always had to cope with scarcity, developing adaptation strategies to meet their essential needs. However, the adaptation capacities in place are put to the test by climate change, unsustainable water use and wastage, contributing to the depletion...Read more
