Análisis de fármacos en aguas residuales de tres hospitales de la ciudad de Puebla, México

Abstract: <p>Mediante sus efluentes, los hospitales contribuyen a la ocurrencia de microcontaminantes emergentes como los fármacos, en el agua. Este trabajo cuantificó la presencia de nueve fármacos en las aguas residuales de tres hospitales privados de México con 66, 92 y 120 camas, respectivamente. Las muestras se caracterizaron fisicoquímicamente y, empleando cromatografía líquida de alta resolución acoplada a espectrometría de masas (UPLC-MS/MS), se reportaron las siguientes concentraciones máximas promedio: p… Show more

“…In Puebla City, drainage and sewerage share the same infrastructure, where rainwater runoff and domestic and industrial discharges confluence. In that water, pollutants found include pharmaceuticals [118], microplastics [61,119], other emerging contaminants [119], and heavy metals [56]. Their confluence allows them to mix and produce chemical reactions that might result in new mixtures of pollutants, which may not be treated by WWTPs [120].…”

“…Debido a que por el momento no existe ninguna normatividad mexicana que se ocupe específicamente de la ocurrencia de fármacos en cuerpos de agua. La Norma Oficial Mexicana (NOM-087-SEMARNAT-SSA1, 2002), regula la protección ambiental y el manejo de residuos peligrosos biológico-infecciosos por parte de los hospitales, tanto públicos como privados, sin embargo, ésta no es clara sobre el requisito de que estos establecimientos cuenten o no con una PTAR en óptimo funcionamiento (Castro-Pastrana et al, 2021).…”

“…Up to 80% of this consumption translates into the production of wastewater, which can contribute between 0.2% and 65% of the total discharges reaching municipal wastewater treatment plants. Moreover, hospitals are major medications consumers, and their activities can have a significant impact on the environment as they generate a large amount of biological and pharmaceutical waste [8][9][10] .…”
