Chlorine is a strong oxidant that under normal conditions and in its pure state forms dichlorine, a yellow-greenish toxic gas formed by diatomic molecules (Cl2) about 2.5 times heavier than air, with an unpleasant and toxic odor. Among its many applications and due to its strong oxidizing character, it stands out especially for being a compound widely used in water purification in WWTPs ...
Overview of pharmaceutical sludge: Pharmaceutical wastewater is a type of organic wastewater with complex components, high biological toxicity, and difficult-to-degrade substances. It is a recognized source of serious environmental pollution. Pharmaceutical wastewater is discharged intermittently, and the water quality and volume fluctuate greatly. Pharmaceutical sludge refers to the ...
Direct linkages between endocrine‐disrupting compounds (EDCs) from municipal and industrial wastewaters and impacts on wild fish assemblages are rare. The levels of plasma vitellogenin (Vtg) and Vtg mRNA in male fathead minnows Pimephales promelas (FHMs) exposed to wastewater effluents and dilutions of 17α‐ethinylestradiol (EE2), estrogen ...
Twelve reference materials having a diameter (dp) traceable to NIST were spiked into 6 different aqueous matrices that included drinking water, groundwater, industrial wastewater as well as the algae and daphnia growth media used in ecotoxicology testing. ...
Uncontrolled accumulation of wastes in marine environments involves an increase in organic substances and/or nutrients, as well as toxicity. The consequences of this enrichment for the homeostasis of ecosystems are unpredictable. The best studied consequence of such enrichment is eutrophication (Conti, 1996). Natural or anthropogenic eutrophication is the enrichment of a water body in nutrients, ...
