Purpose Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) are emerging environmental
pollutants, which, in addition to direct deposition processes, can find their way into surface …

Depurated effluents can be employed as reclaimed water for irrigation in regions with low
precipitations, while nutrients-rich biosolids are usually applied as fertilizer for agricultural …

Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) are emerging contaminants in the
environment, which have drawn popular concerns recently. Most studies on the …

In conventional sorption studies, the prior presence of contaminants in the soil is not
considered when estimating the sorption parameters because this is only a transient state …

Soils may be contaminated by human or veterinary pharmaceuticals. Their behaviour in soil
environment is largely controlled by sorption of different compounds in a soil solution onto …

Sorption is one of the key process that affects the fate and mobility of pharmaceuticals in the
soil environment. Several models have been developed for estimating the sorption of …

Transport of human and veterinary pharmaceuticals in soils and consequent ground-water
contamination are influenced by many factors, including compound sorption on soil …

In this study, laboratory column experiments under water saturated conditions were
conducted for over 35 days to investigate the transport of nine pharmaceuticals (nadolol …

Purpose Although the ubiquity of pharmaceuticals in treated wastewater has now been well
documented, their fate and risk during beneficial wastewater reuse are far less understood …

Pharmaceutically active compounds (PACs) are ubiquitous contaminants that can pollute
the environment. This study critically analyzes the sorption of PACs to soil materials based …
