Occurrence and spatiotemporal variability of sunscreen agents along the polish part of the Baltic Sea coast

(Corresponding) ASTEL A., STEC M., ASTEL K.

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

Characterization of Natural Organic Matter and Disinfection By-products Formed After Chemical Disinfection of Water

(Corresponding) Postigo C., (Corresponding) Andersson A., Mourad H., Bastviken D., Gonsior M., Schmitt-Kopplin P., Gago-Ferrero P., Ahrens L., Ahrens L., Wiberg K.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

Chemical disinfection of water has been commonly applied to protect public health from waterborne infectious diseases. Chemical disinfectants are strong oxidants that react with the building blocks or alter the metabolism of pathogenic organisms, killing them as the final consequence. These...Read more

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

Evaluation of innovative water treatments at molecular level based on high resolution mass spectrometry and advanced statistical tools

(Corresponding) Gago-Ferrero P., ALYGIZAKIS N., Velo-Gala I., Sbardella L., Gernjak W., Petrovic M.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

This work aims at integrating the last advances in high resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) and statistical analysis to develop and optimize a smart methodology (workflow) for the assessment of the performance of innovative water treatments using different technological approaches based on advanced...Read more

Analysis of degradation of the micropollutant amoxicillin by photolysis and evaluation of the degradation products

(Corresponding) Hoehne L., Vettorello G., Ethur E., Kuhn D., Freitas E., Steffens C.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

Emerging micro pollutants are substances that have recently been identified in environmental matrices, of which information on environmental permanence and toxicity is still scarce. Because of their chemical structure, antibiotics are more stable and require more complex processes for degradation...Read more

Determination of pharmaceutical residues in natural waters using high performance liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometry

KIFOKERI D., NANNOU C., (Corresponding) BOTI V., ALBANIS T.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

The presence of residual pharmaceuticals in the aquatic environment is an important environmental issue. Since the drugs are designed to cause biological responses, they could pose a risk to organisms in their natural environment. In this study, the presence of selected pharmaceutical compounds (...Read more

Optimization of fabric phase sorptive extraction for the determination of selected pharmaceuticals in environmental waters

JIMENEZ-HOLGADO C., VOURDAS N., STATHOPOULOS V., (Corresponding) SAKKAS V.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

There is a growing public and scientific concern about the possibility of ecosystem and human health effects from pharmaceuticals in environment. Results have shown that several types of environmental waters (drinking water, groundwater, surface water, treated water) were contaminated by the...Read more
