“…Yet, the high cost of ozone production, generation of bromate ions, and organic and solid by-products are the major constraints of this approach. Borikar et al [ 194 ] evaluated and compared conventional and advanced oxidation techniques for the elimination of EDCs and pharmaceutical chemicals from water. Their research findings revealed that ozone/H 2 O 2 , UV/H 2 O 2 , and conventional treatment significantly removed EDCs (97%) from water.…”

Over the years, the persistent occurrence of superfluous endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs) (sub µg L−1) in water has led to serious health disorders in human and aquatic lives, as well as undermined the water quality. At present, there are no generally accepted regulatory discharge limits for the EDCs to avert their possible negative impacts. Moreover, the conventional treatment processes have reportedly failed to remove the persistent EDC pollutants, and this has led researchers to develop alternative treatment methods. Comprehensive information on the recent advances in the existing novel treatment processes and their peculiar limitations is still lacking. In this regard, the various treatment methods for the removal of EDCs are critically studied and reported in this paper. Initially, the occurrences of the EDCs and their attributed effects on humans, aquatic life, and wildlife are systematically reviewed, as well as the applied treatments. The most noticeable advances in the treatment methods include adsorption, catalytic degradation, ozonation, membrane separation, and advanced oxidation processes (AOP), as well as hybrid processes. The recent advances in the treatment technologies available for the elimination of EDCs from various water resources alongside with their associated drawbacks are discussed critically. Besides, the application of hybrid adsorption–membrane treatment using several novel nano-precursors is carefully reviewed. The operating factors influencing the EDCs’ remediations via adsorption is also briefly examined. Interestingly, research findings have indicated that some of the contemporary techniques could achieve more than 99% EDCs removal.

“…Ultraviolet light has a wide variety of applications in industry, including disinfection [1], lighting [2], photocatalysis, UV paint curing and UV glue curing [3,4]. The recent coronavirus outbreak has led to increased interest in finding solutions using ultraviolet light, specifically in the UV-C wavelength ranges (240 nm − 280 nm [1]), to achieve effective disinfection of surfaces and air.…”

“…Advanced oxidation processes such as ozone, ozone-hydrogen peroxide and UV-hydrogen peroxide have been reported as one of the effective processes in removing emerging contaminants (Westerhoff et al 2005;Ponnusamy et al 2019), but these operations may incur higher capital and operating cost for full-scale operation (Borikar et al 2014;Farzaneh et al 2020). Formation of by-products of higher toxicity is another concern that is often associated with the usage of advanced oxidation processes (Kudlek 2018).…”

Pharmaceutical products in water, frequently referred to as personal pharmaceutical products, PCPPs are regarded as problematic emerging pollutants with the potential to cause damaging health and environmental impacts to several ecosystems. In this study, an acid activated carbon has been produced from waste date stones, the waste product obtained from the seedless date products manufacturing industry. This material has been used to remove the pharmaceutical compound ibuprofen from water with a high adsorption capacity of 126 mg ibuprofen per g waste date stone derived activated carbon. In order to optimise the use of the activated carbon, a design study has been performed to minimise the quantity of carbon needed using a two-stage batch adsorption system. Several variables have been inputted into the design model to test the model and compare the quantities of adsorbent required in the two-stage and the single stage systems under various conditions.
