TL;DR: In this paper, the use of PFRs as potential substitutes for brominated flame retardants (BFRs) has been discussed and a number of potential alternatives for BFRs have been proposed.

TL;DR: The organophosphorus compounds studied were poorly removed from the wastewater; especially the chlorinated OPs tended to pass through the STPs without being removed or degraded, while alkyl-OPs, such as tributyl phosphate (TBP), were more successfully removed.
Abstract: The levels, distribution, and possible sources of 12 organophosphorus flame retardants and plasticizers, some of which are reported to be toxic to aquatic organisms, were investigated in samples of influents, effluents, and sludge from 11 Swedish sewage treatment plants (STPs). The organophosphorus compounds (OPs) studied were poorly removed from the wastewater; especially the chlorinated OPs tended to pass through the STPs without being removed or degraded, while alkyl-OPs, such as tributyl phosphate (TBP), were more successfully removed. In both influents and effluents, tris(2-butoxyethyl) phosphate and TBP were the most prominent substances followed by tris(2-chloroisopropyl) phosphate (TCPP). The highest concentration of any individual OP detected in the influents was 52 μg L-1 (TBP). Ethylhexyl diphenyl phosphate and TCPP dominated in all sludge samples. A budget calculation comparing the annual amount of OPs in the influent received by Swedish STPs with the known amount of OPs imported indicated tha...

TL;DR: High variability but no significant seasonal trends were observed for all five organophosphates in urban lake water samples, and TCPP was the substance with the highest median concentration in rural volcanic lakes indicating an atmospheric transport of the compound.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: It was found that an increase of the PMS dose and the presence of Fe3+ could accelerate the reaction, while the anions and HA inhibited the reaction and UV/PMS can be used as an efficient technology to treat TCEP-containing water and wastewaters.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Insight is provided into the toxicological effects of OPEs on earthworm model, and the observed intestinal damage, oxidative stress and neurotoxic effect might be the primary mechanisms of TCEP and TCP toxicity.
