Adsorptive removal of antibiotics from water and wastewater: Progress and challenges. (2015, background): “As reviewed by Michael et al. (2013) and Rizzo et al. (2013), urban wastewater treatment plants are likely to be hotspots for the release of antibiotics and ARGs in the natural environment.”
Environmental factors influencing the development and spread of antibiotic resistance (2017, positive): “…also can select for resistance (Gullberg et al. 2011, 2014; Lundstr¨om et al. 2016), attention has to be paid to raw sewage, agricultural settings and STPs, where concentrations of antibiotics around the predicted MSCs have been determined (Michael et al. 2013; Bengtsson-Palme and Larsson 2016a).”
Carbon-based nanomaterials for removal of chemical and biological contaminants from water: A review of mechanisms and applications (2015, background): “thetic compounds are termed emerging contaminants since their health consequences and removal process are yet to be fully investigated [70–72].”
EU-wide monitoring survey on emerging polar organic contaminants in wastewater treatment plant effluents. (2013, background): “Carbamazepine and sulfamethoxazole are almost completely persistent during activated sludge treatment (Clara et al., 2005; Lindqvist et al., 2005; Hollender et al., 2009; Joss et al., 2006; Michael et al., 2013; Radjenovi c et al., 2007a).”
