Mass Flows of X-ray Contrast Media and Cytostatics in Hospital Wastewater

Juliane Hollender, David Gregory Weissbrodt, Hansruedi Siegrist

Little is known about the significance of hospitals as point sources for emission of organic micropollutants into the aquatic environment. A mass flow analysis of pharmaceuticals and diagnostics used in hospitals was performed on the site of a representati ...

Efficient removal of estrogenic activity during oxidative treatment of waters containing steroid estrogens

Urs von Gunten, Yun Ho Lee

The discharge of synthetic and natural steroid estrogens from municipal wastewaters to the aquatic environment has received increased attention because of their potential reproductive effects on fish. Using 17 alpha-ethinylestradiol (EE2) as a representati ...
