Emerging pollutants—Part II: Treatment

Recently, emerging pollutants (EPs) have been frequently detected in urban wastewater, surface water, drinking water, and other water bodies. EPs mainly usually include pharmaceuticals and personal care products, endocrine-disrupting chemicals, antibiotic resistance genes, persistent organic polluta...

Description
Summary:Recently, emerging pollutants (EPs) have been frequently detected in urban wastewater, surface water, drinking water, and other water bodies. EPs mainly usually include pharmaceuticals and personal care products, endocrine-disrupting chemicals, antibiotic resistance genes, persistent organic pollutants, disinfection by-products, and other industrial chemicals. The potential threat of EPs to ecosystems and human health has attracted worldwide attention. Therefore, how to treat EPs in various water bodies has become one of the research priorities. In this paper, some research results on treatment of EPs published in 2018 were summarized.
