“…Parabens are the most widely consumed and pseudopersistence preservatives found in the environment. − Methyl (MeP), ethyl (EtP), propyl (PrP), butyl (BuP), and benzyl (BeP) parabens (Table ) are the often detected in indoor dust, wastewater (WW), surface water, drinking water, and sewage sludge in the concentration ranges of 140–39 090 ng g –1 , 1602–5700 ng L –1 , 1062–3142 ng L –1 , 90–240 ng L –1 , and 5–1000 ng g –1 , − respectively. Simultaneously, the occurrence of parabens in personal care products (488–8200 μg g –1 ), pharmaceuticals (2689 μg g –1 ), food products (0.261–32 ng g –1 ), human urine (17.7 μg L –1 ), and currency bills (1830 ng g –1 ) have been reported. Human exposure to parabens via diet and inhalation is inevitable .…”

The increased consumption of parabens and associated health hazards has necessitated the development of water treatment technologies capable of removing parabens to desired levels. Among the various available treatment options, catalytic degradation has the advantages of faster reaction kinetics, increased reactive species formation, and no sludge disposal problem. Accordingly, an overview of recent advances in catalytic systems briefing removal, mineralization, and performance comparison between catalysts is essential to scale up and transfer lab-scale results to real-scale applications. The current review highlights the superiority of photocatalysis, Fenton’s, persulfate, and ozonation/catalytic ozonation systems to eliminate parabens. The performance evaluation and economic feasibility of catalytic treatment systems were identified using mathematical models. Additionally, density functional theory calculations were carried out to assess the fundamental mechanism associated with paraben degradation by TiO2 and to develop a molecular-level understanding of synthesizing catalysts that can effectively degrade parabens. In a nutshell, this review acts as a roadmap to show the feasibility of catalytic treatment technologies to eliminate parabens from the water environment.

“…Incineration of phenolic waste contributes to phenolic pollutants in the air. Although the emissions from incinerators usually make up only a small proportion of air pollution, the secondary pollutants (heavy metals and polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans) in the exhaust gases might pose greater health risks for the local populations [46,50].…”

This chapter examines source and application of phenolic compounds in the built environment as well as their environmental fate and treatment methods. We further describe the role of phenolic compounds in delaying aging and degradation of outdoor construction elements when exposed to intense solar radiation. In this chapter both plant-based and synthetic sources of phenolic compounds and their fate in the environment were examined. In addition, merits of select sources of phenolic compounds to resist ultraviolet radiation in composites as well as delaying degradation were studied. This chapter further provides insights pertaining to the underlying molecular interactions which afford phenol’s role as an anti-aging additive for outdoor construction elements. This in turn provides a solution to promote bio-economy and enhance sustainability in the built environment.

“…Contrary to humans and domestic animals, the knowledge on the wild animals exposure to parabens is relatively scanty and limited mainly to the aquatic animals [23][24][25][26]. Only single studies concern the biomonitoring of parabens in wild terrestrial mammals.…”

Parabens are compounds widely utilized in the industry as preservative additives to personal care products, cosmetics and food. They pollute the environment and penetrate to the living organisms through the digestive tract, respiratory system and skin. Till now the knowledge about exposure of terrestrial wild mammals to parabens is extremely scarce. Therefore, this study for the first time assessed the concentration levels of five parabens commonly used in industry (methylparaben—MeP, ethylparaben—EtP propylparaben–PrP, benzylparaben -BeP and butylparaben–BuP). Substances have been analyzed in hair samples collected from wild boars using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) method. The hair is a matrix, which allows to study long-term exposure of organisms to parabens. During this study MeP was noted in 96.3% of samples with mean 88.3±72.9 pg/mg, PrP in 87.0% of samples with mean 8.5±3.3 pg/mg, BeP in 44.4% of samples with mean 17.2±12.3 pg/mg and EtP in 11.1% of samples with mean 17.2±4.8 pg/mg. In turn BuP was noted only in 3.7% of samples with concentration levels below limit of quantification (2.6 pg/mg). Statistically significant intragender differences in parabens levels have not been noted. Only BeP concentration levels depended on industrialization and density of human population of area, where the animals lived. This study indicates that wild boars are exposed to parabens, especially to MeP and PrP, and analysis of the hair seems to be a useful tool of biomonitoring of parabens in wild mammals.
