Journal ArticleDOI
A review of the biotransformations of priority pharmaceuticals in biological wastewater treatment processes.
TL;DR: The metabolic pathways, transformation products and impact of relevant factors to biological WWTP processes is addressed and the biokinetics of PhAC biodegradation in different engineered bioprocesses is also discussed.

TL;DR: Investigation of an ICW consisting of a regulating pool, four surface and subsurface flow-constructed wetlands, and a stabilization unit for removing antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) from rural domestic wastewaters found it could significantly reduce most of the detected antibiotics and ARGs with their aqueous removal rates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adsorption performance of magnesium/aluminum layered double hydroxide nanoparticles for metronidazole from aqueous solution
TL;DR: Magnesium/aluminum layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanoparticles were synthesized by hydrolyzing urea and used to remove metronidazole (MN) from aqueous solution.

TL;DR: The anaerobic digester in Farm A and UASB in Farm B made a significant contribution to the elimination of the target antibiotics from the animal wastewater, but the dewatered sludge needs to be further treated before disposal on land.

Antibiotics in the aquatic environment - A review - Part II
TL;DR: This review brings up important questions that are still open, and addresses some significant issues which must be tackled in the future for a better understanding of the behavior of antibiotics in the environment, as well as the risks associated with their occurrence.
Journal ArticleDOI
A global perspective on the use, sales, exposure pathways, occurrence, fate and effects of veterinary antibiotics (VAs) in the environment
TL;DR: This paper has attempted to summarize the latest information available in the literature on the use, sales, exposure pathways, environmental occurrence, fate and effects of veterinary antibiotics in animal agriculture.
Journal ArticleDOI
Occurrence of antibiotics in the aquatic environment.
TL;DR: From the large number of ground water samples that were taken from agricultural areas in Germany, no contamination by antibiotics was detected except for two sites, which indicates that intake from veterinary applications to the aquatic environment is of minor importance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Veterinary antibiotics in the aquatic and terrestrial environment
TL;DR: A review of the available data on the present use of veterinary antibiotics in agriculture, on the occurrence of antibiotic compounds and resistant bacteria in soil and water and demonstrates the need for further studies as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Removal of antibiotics in conventional and advanced wastewater treatment: implications for environmental discharge and wastewater recycling.
TL;DR: Certain traditional parameters, including nitrate concentration, conductivity and turbidity of the effluent were assessed as predictors of total antibiotic concentration, however only conductivity demonstrated any correlation with total antibiotics concentration.
