The occurrence of pharmaceuticals, personal care products, endocrine disruptors and illicit drugs in surface water in South Wales, UK. (2008, background): “…mefenamic acid, paracetamol and aspirin were also analysed and determined at similar levels by several research groups (Gross et al., 2006; Moldovan, 2006; Vieno et al., 2005; Lindqvist et al., 2005; Bendz et al., 2005; Calamari et al., 2003; Kolpin et al., 2002, 2004; Glassmeyer et al., 2005).”
The role of nanomaterials as effective adsorbents and their applications in wastewater treatment (2017, background): “Thus, these toxic materials are permanently introduced into rivers and streams by wastewater discharges, while diffuse sources such as runoff from agricultural fields are possible, but frequently contribute to a much smaller extent to the overall pollution [7, 11, 12].”
