“…In recent years, scientists have been particularly interested in developing effective and environmentally safe methods of removing hazardous pollutants, such as emerging contaminants and synthetic dyes, from aqueous solutions [ 68 , 69 , 70 , 71 , 72 ]. The environmental threat from these pollutants is primarily due to economic growth.…”

Pollution of the environment, including water resources, is currently one of the greatest challenges due to emerging new contaminants of anthropogenic origin. Of particular concern are emerging organic pollutants such as pharmaceuticals, endocrine disruptors, and pesticides, but also other industrial pollutants, for example, synthetic dyes. The growing demand for environmentally friendly and economical methods of removing emerging contaminants and synthetic dyes from wastewater resulted in increased interest in the possibility of using techniques based on the application of polymer inclusion membranes (PIMs) for this purpose. PIM-based techniques are promising methods for eliminating emerging contaminants and synthetic dyes from aqueous solutions, including wastewater, due to high efficiency, membranes versatility, ease/low cost of preparation, and high selectivity. This review describes the latest developments related to the removal of various emerging contaminants and synthetic dyes from aqueous solutions using PIMs over the past few years, with particular emphasis on research aimed at increasing the effectiveness and selectivity of PIMs, which may contribute to wider use of these methods in the future.

“…These toxic pollutants accumulate in the soil, surface water, drinking water and other natural resources as a result of untreated sewage discharged into water bodies [266]. Analyses by Vilela et al (2022) show that potentially toxic metals (PTMs), hexachlorocyclohexanes (HCHs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), organic tins, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and phenols are commonly found at a depth of 200 m and are detected both in organisms as well as in environmental samples.…”

“…Surface water pollution due to heavy agricultural use of fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, unmanaged municipal wastewater and unregulated industrial wastewater discharges significantly affects the environment [267,268]. Worldwide, 80% of untreated industrial wastewater goes directly to water reservoirs [266]. Industries, such as paper and pulp, textile, tanning, chemical, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, food processing and petrochemical, and other manufacturing industries, are major sources of industrial wastewater [256,266,269].…”

Industrialization, intensive farming, rapid population growth and urbanization are the source of a large number of pollutants entering the environment. The current concentration of xenobiotics released into the environment exceeds its natural ability to decompose them. Enzymatic degradation of pollutants seems to be an environmentally friendly process. Due to the wide spectrum of substrate specificity, from inorganic compounds to high molecular weight organic compounds such as PAH or dyes, as well as favorable biochemical properties, laccase has been used in the biological removal of xenobiotics from the environment. It is important to understand the degradation mechanisms of pollutants and to evaluate the final products in terms of their toxicity. The laccase oxidizes the substrates with the simultaneous reduction of molecular oxygen to water, which is the purest reaction co-substrate. That is why it is called a green biocatalyst. The trend is an increase in the production of enzymes related to the intensive development of industry, bioremediation or synthetic chemistry. This leads to the search for laccases with greater activity and stability under extreme conditions. The potential of laccases to degrade xenobiotics can be promoted by improving enzymatic catalytic characterization using protein engineering and other genetic engineering methods.
