Sorption of selected endocrine disrupting chemicals to different aquatic colloids.
TL;DR: Through characterization of colloidal samples, a significant relationship was established between Kcoc values and the molar extinction coefficient of colloids at 280 nm, whereas no other colloidal properties such as elemental ratios were correlated with KcOC values.

Occurrence and removal of endocrine disrupting chemicals in wastewater.
Yanping Zhang,John L. Zhou +1 more
TL;DR: Photodegradation aided by a catalyst (TiO(2)) was studied for its efficiency of removing EDCs from wastewater and application of the photocatalysis method to real effluent treatment at Horsham STP was successful, as demonstrated by the non-detection of the target compounds following treatment.
