Journal ArticleDOI
Progress in the biological and chemical treatment technologies for emerging contaminant removal from wastewater: A critical review.
TL;DR: Results showed that endocrine disruption chemicals (EDCs) were better removed by membrane bioreactor, activated sludge and aeration processes among different biological processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adsorptive removal of antibiotics from water and wastewater: Progress and challenges.
TL;DR: The efficiency for removing antibiotics from water and wastewater by different adsorbents has been evaluated by examining their adsorption coefficient (Kd) values, and the future research challenges on process integration, production and modification of low-cost adsorptive materials are elaborated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Progress in the preparation and application of modified biochar for improved contaminant removal from water and wastewater
TL;DR: Modified biochar (BC) is reviewed in its preparation, functionality, applications and regeneration, and the Langmuir isotherm model provides the best fit for sorption equilibria of heavy metals and anionic contaminants and the pseudo 2(nd) order is the most appropriate model of sorption kinetics for all contaminants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Occurrence and behavior of antibiotics in water and sediments from the Huangpu River, Shanghai, China
K. Chen,John L. Zhou +1 more
TL;DR: The spatial distribution of antibiotics showed that the main polluting sources into the Huangpu River were animal farming sites and the tributaries downstream of the Yuanxie River, suggesting the importance of contaminant properties in inter-phase behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fate and assessment of persistent organic pollutants in water and sediment from Minjiang River Estuary, Southeast China.
TL;DR: It was found that alpha-HCH, DDE, Heptachlor, Endosulfan II, Methoxychlor were the most common organochlorine pesticides contaminants and PCB congeners containing 3-6 chlorines had the great preponderance in the three phase.
