Topic:
Emerging pollutants
UV-filters accumulate in tissues of aquatic organisms and induce negative effects on fertility and reproduction. Since they are “new emerging pollutants” general monitoring programs are rare and mainly conducted in touristic places, where high temperatures are recorded throughout the year (Spain,...Read more

Investigation of food additives readily biodegradability in respirometric tests
Vazaiou N., (Corresponding) Gatidou G., Arvaniti O., Stasinakis A.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
The biodegradability of fourteen (14) food additives, belonging to different groups such as artificial sweeteners, preservatives and coloring agents, was evaluated using the OECD 301F protocol (manometric respirometry test). According to the results, seven out of fourteen compounds, namely...Read more
Study on the fate of the chemical uncoupler 3,3′,4′,5-tetrachlorosalicylanilide (TCSA) in activated sludge process and investigation of its effects to different aquatic organisms
(Corresponding) Gatidou G., Hatzopoulos P., Chhetri R., Kokkoli A., Giannakopoulos A., Arvaniti O., Andersen H., Stasinakis A.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
This study examines the biodegradation of 3,3′,4′,5-tetrachlorosalicylanilide (TSCA) by activated sludge and investigates its effects to different aquatic organisms. According to the experimental results, the fate of the target compound in activated sludge systems is governed by the mechanisms of...Read more
