Research on the Occurrence and Removal Status of Emerging Contaminants in Waste water Treatment Plants
The article takes emerging contaminants in wastewater treatment plants as the research object,selects four typical emerging contaminants(persistent organic pollutants,antibiotics,endocrine disrupting chemicals and microplastics)to conduct research,analyzes their sources of entering wastewater treatment plants,and analyzes their occurrence and degradation status in different wastewater treatment processes.In order to better compare and analyze the degradation pathways of emerging contaminants,this article discusses and compares current emerging contaminants removal technologies,and then points out the development trend of emerging contaminants removal technologies in wastewater treatment plants,providing valuable references for the research and development of new technologies and processes for efficient removal of emerging contaminants in wastewater treatment plants.
