Removal of trace antibiotics from wastewater: A systematic study of nanofiltration combined with ozone-based advanced oxidation processes

TLDR
Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper did a systematic investigation on removal of trace antibiotics from wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) effluent through nanofiltration, and disposal of the NF concentrate by advanced oxidation processes (AOPs).

Evaluation of specific ultraviolet absorbance as an indicator of the chemical composition and reactivity of dissolved organic carbon.

TL;DR: Data indicate that SUVA, determined at 254 nm, is strongly correlated with percent aromaticity as determined by 13C NMR for 13 organic matter isolates obtained from a variety of aquatic environments and is shown to be a useful parameter for estimating the dissolved aromatic carbon content in aquatic systems.

Ecotoxicology of human pharmaceuticals.

TL;DR: It is shown that only very little is known about long-term effects of pharmaceuticals to aquatic organisms, in particular with respect to biological targets, and targeted ecotoxicological studies are needed focusing on subtle environmental effects.
