Journal ArticleDOI
Reduction of antibiotic resistome in influent of a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) via a chemically enhanced primary treatment (CEPT) process.
TL;DR: In this article, the potential of CEPT as a primary treatment process for removing antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the influent from a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) has seldom been investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Individual and simultaneous adsorption of tetracycline and cadmium by dodecyl dimethyl betaine modified vermiculite
TL;DR: Li et al. as discussed by the authors modified vermiculite with dodecyl dimethyl betaine (BS-12) to obtain a kind of organo-vermiculites (VER), which exhibited good advantages in simultaneous removal of heavy metals and organic contaminants.

Insight into the removal process mechanism of pharmaceutical compounds and dyes on plasma-modified biomass: the key role of adsorbate specificity
Brice Takam,Jean-Baptiste Tarkwa,Elie Acayanka,Serge Nzali,Darryle M Chesseu,Georges Y. Kamgang,Samuel Laminsi +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the adsorbate intrinsic properties could play a significant role in the adsorption process, and Avrami fractional order was the most successfully fitted model for pharmaceutical biosorption and based on the statistical values of SD and R 2 adj parameters, Liu isotherm was the best fitted model.

Chiara Borsetto,Sebastien Raguideau,Emma Rachel Travis,Dae-Wi Kim,Do-Hoon Lee,Andrew R. Bottrill,Richard Stark,Lijiang Song,Chang-Jun Cha,Jonathan M. Pearson,Christopher Quince,Andrew C. Singer,Elizabeth M. H. Wellington +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the impact of sulfonamide compound sulfamethoxazole (SMX) exposure on the river bacterial microbiome using a flume system, which was a semi-natural in vitro flume using river water (30 L) and sediment (6 kg) with circulation to mimic river flow.

Enhanced Removal of Antibiotic in Wastewater Using Liquid Nitrogen-Treated Carbon Material: Material Properties and Removal Mechanisms.
Yaohui Wu,Wen Liu,Yonghong Wang,Xinjiang Hu,Zhengping He,Xiaoyong Chen,Xiaoyong Chen,Yunlin Zhao +7 more
TL;DR: Carbon material obtained by the liquid nitrogen treatment method has a stronger adsorption capacity, faster adsOrption, and was non-toxic, therefore, it could be a promising adsorbent, with promising prospects in environmental pollution remediation applications.

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.
