Contamination of Water: Chapter 18 - Pharmaceuticals and personal care products: occurrence, detection, risk, and removal technologies in aquatic environment

Elsevier,

Contamination of Water, Health Risk Assessment and Treatment Strategies, 2021, Pages 265-284
This chapter examines how PPCPs are often termed as micropollutants or trace organics, as these compounds are present in the µg/L range in the environment. PPCPs may pose a serious threat to aquatic life, having acute and chronic toxicity responses. As a result, there is a need for evolving technologies to detect, identify, and remediate compounds from these micropollutants.
