Pesticides drive risk of micropollutants in wastewater-impacted streams during low flow conditions

Juliane Hollender

Micropollutants enter surface waters through various pathways, of which wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are a major source. The large diversity of micropollutants and their many modes of toxic action pose a challenge for assessing environmental risks. ...
