Contribution of waste water treatment plants to pesticide toxicity in agriculture catchments

Pesticide residues are frequently found in water bodies and may threaten freshwater
ecosystems and biodiversity. In addition to runoff or leaching from treated agricultural fields,
pesticides may enter streams via effluents from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). We
compared the pesticide toxicity in terms of log maximum Toxic Unit (log mTU) of sampling
sites in small agricultural streams of Germany with and without WWTPs in the upstream
catchments. We found an approximately half log unit higher pesticide toxicity for sampling …
