“…To date, many materials have been developed as adsorbents (activated carbon, zeolites, metal-organic frameworks, or ion exchange resin) [14][15][16][17][18]. However, some drawbacks, such as poor adsorption performances, small surface area, difficult regeneration, and non-competitive cost, can limit their application in the extensive treatment of wastewater.…”

Every year, new compounds contained in consumer products, such as detergents, paints, products for personal hygiene, and drugs for human and veterinary use, are identified in wastewater and are added to the list of molecules that need monitoring. These compounds are indicated with the term emerging contaminants (or Contaminants of Emerging Concern, CECs) since they are potentially dangerous for the environment and human health. To date, among the most widely used methodologies for the removal of CECs from the aquatic environment, adsorption processes play a role of primary importance, as they have proven to be characterized by high removal efficiency, low operating and management costs, and an absence of undesirable by-products. In this paper, the adsorption of ibuprofen (IBU), a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug widely used for treating inflammation or pain, was performed for the first time using two different types of geopolymer-based materials, i.e., a metakaolin-based (GMK) and an organic–inorganic hybrid (GMK-S) geopolymer. The proposed adsorbing matrices are characterized by a low environmental footprint and have been easily obtained as powders or as highly porous filters by direct foaming operated directly into the adsorption column. Preliminary results demonstrated that these materials can be effectively used for the removal of ibuprofen from contaminated water (showing a concentration decrease of IBU up to about 29% in batch, while an IBU removal percentage of about 90% has been reached in continuous), thus suggesting their potential practical application.

Studying the historical aspect of the development of veterinary medicine in the southern regions of Ukraine at the end of the twentieth century. The purpose of this work was to study the use of folk methods of treatment of productive animals in the southern regions of Ukraine, in particular in the Odesa region, and to analyze their effectiveness from the point of view of traditional and modern veterinary medicine. The information was collected by interviewing animal owners who kept animals at that time, veterinary specialists who had a veterinary practice, and by searching for archival and literature sources in various scientific databases. As a result of the research, it was found that the vast majority of folk methods used in rural areas of Odesa Oblast in the late twentieth century were related to the treatment of the most common diseases of cattle, both adult and young, while the number of methods for other animal species was limited. The therapeutic effect of most of these methods was based on the therapeutic effect obtained from local medicinal plants, which formed their basis. The main areas of application of alternative therapies were to help animals with digestive dysfunction – dyspepsia in young animals and atony of the fore stomach, skin diseases, parasitic diseases and mastitis in cows. The analysis of the methods used to treat animals indicates a deep knowledge of the medicinal effects of the plants and substances used by animal owners. The effectiveness of the treatment methods described in this article is confirmed by their use in the professional practice of veterinary specialists. Thus, the conducted studies indicate a significant influence of folk veterinary medicine at the end of the last century on the treatment of productive animals from private households, which at that time made up the majority of livestock in Ukraine
