Urban wastewater treatment plants as hotspots for the release of antibiotics in the environment: a review. (2013, methodology): “Serrano et al. (2011) added 1 g L 1 into a sequential membrane bioreactor and found elimination of 42e64% for erythromycin, 71e97% for roxitromycinwhereas no significant removal was obtained for TMP. Putra et al. (2009) compared the adsorption capacity of activated carbon and bentonite and reported ”
