“…Chromatographic separation was carried out using an Atlantis T3 column 150×2.1 mm, 3 µm (Waters Corp., Milford, MA,USA). Analytical details and method validation are reported by [10] . The same extract was used for the analysis of Alk-BPA, with an API 3000 QqQ in negative ionisation mode as detailed elsewhere [8] .…”

These data and analyses support the research article “Mass balance of emerging contaminants in the water cycle of an highly urbanized and industrialized area of Italy” by Castiglioni et al. (2018) [1].The occurrence of 80 emerging contaminats in waste and surface water was investigated in an highly urbanised area of Italy, the River Lambro basin. The data presented here include: (1) concentrations in untreated and treated wastewater of different wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs); (2) concentrations in surface water collected along the river Lambro, in the north and south of the city of Milan (main urban center in the area). These concentrations indicate the distribution and fate of emerging contaminats in the environment.

“…U cilju direktnog poređenja opterećenja otpadnih voda iz različitih postrojenja za prečišćavanje otpadnih voda, koncentracije BP-4 računate su i u obliku opterećenja zagađenja otpadnih voda po stanovniku za jedan dan. Na osnovu rezultata merenja koncentracije BP-4 u influenatima tri postrojenja za prečišćavanje voda u Italiji (Milano) opterećenje BP-4 iznosi od 75,6-217 µg/(dan×st) [7].…”

Sunscreen products contain ultraviolet (UV) filters. The daily use of benzophenone-type UV filters has led to indirect inputs of benzophenone-4 (BP-4) into the environment. Wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) have proven ineffective in removing benzophenone derivatives, therefore WWTP are classified as major source of BP-4 in surface water. The level of environmental risk due to presence of BP-4 in wastewater was estimated to be moderate to high, whereby dilution factor should be taken into account when considering the ecological risk due to the discharge of wastewater into the recipient.

“…Global economic and population growth drives high production and usage volumes of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs). PPCPs have been significantly detected in wastewater, surface water, and drinking water in recent decades (Liu and Wong 2013;Kai et al, 2014;Palmiotto et al, 2018;Radwan et al, 2020). However, traditional water and wastewater treatment plants are mainly operated to remove the classical contaminants (solid, nutrients, and organic matters), not focusing on removing PPCPs (Ben et al, 2018;Oberoi et al, 2019).…”

Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) have drawn increasing concern of environmental health as they are continuously released into the environment. This study examined the effects of birnessite (δ-MnO2) on the transport and retention of five PPCPs in porous media under steady saturated flow conditions. Considering that natural birnessite occurs as discrete particles and small nodules, birnessite-coated sand was used to mimic the natural regime of birnessite in the environment. Batch isotherm experiments were conducted using uncoated and birnessite-coated sand; results showed that the difference in the affinity of the five PPCPs was correlated to their polarity characteristics. Column experiments were conducted by mixing 0, 10, and 20% birnessite-coated sands with the uncoated sands. These three percentages are equivalent to three contents of manganese (Mn) in the experimental columns (0, 55, and 109 μg Mn g−1 sand). Results suggested that polar compounds (such as bisphenol-A, tetracycline, and ciprofloxacin) had a higher affinity to birnessite-coated sands than the weak polar compounds (such as ibuprofen and carbamazepine) because the polarity was favorable to electrostatic attraction and oxidative reaction. Overall, birnessite decreased the mobility of polar PPCPs but exerted no significant effect on the mobility of weak polar PPCPs under continuous flow conditions. The polarity-based correlation extended traditional electrostatic theory while well interpreting the complicated effects of birnessite on the adsorption and transport of PPCPs, especially neutral or non-dissociated compounds like carbamazepine.
