Description
Summary:[Display omitted] •Limited elimination of compounds such as tramadol, and venlafaxine by classical biodegradation.•Ability of aquatic plants to remove psychoactive pharmaceuticals from wastewater.•High methamphetamine accumulation in Pistia stratiotes, high tramadol accumulation in Cabomba caroliniana. Since WWTPs are not able to eliminate all psychoactive pharmaceuticals, these compounds become a part of the aquatic ecosystem. Our results indicate that compounds such as codeine or citalopram are eliminated with low efficiency (
