A review on the occurrence of micropollutants in the aquatic environment and their fate and removal during wastewater treatment. (2014, background): “Taking into consideration both KOW and pKa, Kd has been proposed as a relative accurate indicator of sorption behavior (Joss et al., 2005; Ternes et al., 2004).”
The removal of pharmaceuticals, personal care products, endocrine disruptors and illicit drugs during wastewater treatment and its impact on the quality of receiving waters. (2009, background): “…higher efficiency of carbamazepine removal (30% and >80%, respectively) during activated sludge treatment than the one observed in the discussed research and presented by others (Castiglioni et al., 2006a; Joss et al., 2005; Lindqvist et al., 2005; Santos et al., 2007; Spongberg and Witter, 2008).”

Occurrence and removal of antibiotics, hormones and several other pharmaceuticals in wastewater treatment plants of the largest industrial city of Korea. (2011, background): “Previous researches (Joss et al., 2005; Nakada et al., 2006; Gómez et al., 2007; Sui et al., 2010; García-Galán et al., 2011) have also reported low removal efficiency of mefenamic acid, carbamezepine, metoprolol, and sulfamethazine in WWTPs.”
Occurrence of pharmaceutical compounds in urban wastewater: removal, mass load and environmental risk after a secondary treatment--a review. (2012, background): “…for some biodegradable PhCs (in particular hormones, bezafibrate and ibuprofen) to achieve low effluent concentrations, although other studies (Joss et al., 2005; Vieno et al., 2007) noticed no clear correlation between percentage elimination and SRT in particular for beta-blockers,…”
Urban wastewater treatment plants as hotspots for the release of antibiotics in the environment: a review. (2013, background): “Joss et al., 2005 Switzerland (Kloten-Opfikon (UWTP-K); Altenrhein (UWTP-A)) Primary treatment (screen, aerated grit-removal tank, primary clarifier); Secondary treatment (UWTP-K: CAS; UWTP-A: CAS and a FBR); Tertiary treatment (sand filtration).”
