Article Synopsis
- - This review analyzes the prevalence and impact of microplastics (MPs) and various organic contaminants (OCs) in biosolids, highlighting that MPs and linear alkylbenzene sulfonate surfactants are the most common pollutants found.
- - It notes that while dioxins and polychlorinated biphenyls are minimally present (<0.01%), OCs are more prevalent in Europe compared to Asia and the Americas, and that Australian biosolids have significantly higher MP concentrations than those in the US and Europe.
- - The study concludes that anaerobic digestion is the most effective method for treating these contaminants in biosolids, while thermal treatment shows promise but needs further development in terms of infrastructure and
This study aims to investigate the spatiotemporal trends and impact of COVID-19 lockdowns to the profile of physiochemical parameters in the influent of wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) around Brisbane, Australia. One 24-hr composite influent sample was collected from 10 WWTPs and analyzed for a range of physiochemical parameters per week (i.e.
