Land application of municipal sewage sludge: Human health risk assessment of heavy metals
TL;DR: In this article, the authors assessed the carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic health risks of heavy metals in sewage sludge samples collected from 22 different cities' wastewater treatment plants to determine their agricultural application potential in Turkey.

Metagenomic analysis on resistance genes in water and microplastics from a mariculture system
Jian Lu,Jun Wu,Jianhua Wang +2 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used metagenomic analysis to investigate the distribution of ARGs and MRGs in water and microplastics of a typical mariculture pond, and found that ARGs with relatively high abundance were significantly positively related to major genera, MGEs, and MRG.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pharmaceutical residues in digested sewage sludge: Occurrence, seasonal variation and risk assessment for soil.
TL;DR: In this paper , the occurrences, temporal variations and ecotoxicological risks of 38 selected pharmaceuticals from 7 therapeutic classes (i.e., antibiotics, analgesics, anti-inflammatories, beta-blockers, lipid regulators, anticancer agents, and psychiatric drugs) have been observed in the anaerobically treated sludge of the urban wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in Konya, Turkey.

Urban wastewater treatment plants as hotspots for antibiotic resistant bacteria and genes spread into the environment: a review.
Luigi Rizzo,Célia M. Manaia,Christophe Merlin,Thomas Schwartz,Christophe Dagot,Marie-Cécile Ploy,I. Michael,Despo Fatta-Kassinos +7 more
TL;DR: The final objective is to implement wastewater treatment technologies capable of assuring the production of UWTPs effluents with an acceptable level of ARB, to understand the factors and mechanisms that drive antibiotic resistance maintenance and selection in wastewater habitats.

Occurrence of pharmaceutical compounds in urban wastewater: Removal, mass load and environmental risk after a secondary treatment—A review
TL;DR: This analysis shows that the highest amounts discharged through secondary effluent pertain to one antihypertensive, and several beta-blockers and analgesics/anti-inflammatories, while the highest risk is posed by antibiotics and several psychiatric drugs and analgesic/ anti- inflammatories.

Comparative study of the methods used for treatment and final disposal of sewage sludge in European countries.
TL;DR: The main objective of the current study was to outline the current situation and discuss future perspectives for sludge treatment and disposal in EU countries, where sludge reuse in land and sludge incineration seem to be the main practices further adopted in EU-27 (all Member States up to 2020.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a comparative genomic approach to identify the complete repertoire of resistance genes exhibited by the multidrug-resistant A. baumannii strain AYE, which is epidemic in France, as well as investigate the mechanisms of their acquisition by comparison with the fully susceptible A. bayannii species SDF, associated with human body lice.
