[Enhanced Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria Removal from Wastewater Treatment Plant by Different Disinfection Technologies].

Based on the removal of total heterotrophic bacteria (HPC) and antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB), including the ampicillin resistant bacteria (AMP), erythromycin resistant bacteria (ERY), tetracycline resistant bacteria (TET), kanamycin resistant bacteria (KAN), and ciprofloxacin resistant bacteria (CIP), this study investigates the enhanced removal performance of ARB by different disinfection technologies. The experimental results showed that ARB removal by ultraviolet (UV) disinfection from the wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) was only 18.2%-40.
