Global consumption and discharge of antibiotics have led to the rapid development and
spread of bacterial antibiotic resistance. Among treatment strategies, electrochemical …

Irrational use of antibiotics produces a large number of antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB)
and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) act as …

As an oxidant, peracetic acid (PAA) is gradually applied in advanced oxidation processes
(AOPs) for pollutants degradation due to its high oxidation and low toxicity. In this study, the …

The alteration of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in wastewater has been less studied in
wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), making it difficult to assess ARGs' spreading risk …

The widespread use of chlorination (Cl 2) in drinking water systems causes the selection of
chlorine-resistant bacteria commonly with dense extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) …

Abstract The ozone-ultraviolet (UV)-chlorine process is a highly effective method of
disinfection in water reuse system, but currently still lacks precise quantification and …

Disinfection is essential in water and wastewater treatment process as a guarantee for
microbial safety. This study systematically investigated:(i) the inactivation characteristics of …

The discovery of antibiotics, which was once regarded as a timely medical intervention now
leaves a bitter aftertaste: antimicrobial resistance (AMR), due to the unregulated use of these …

Disinfection is a necessity in water and wastewater treatment and reclamation. This study
examined the inactivation of a disinfectant resistant but widely existed opportunistic …

A novel" ferrate/percarbonate (Fe (VI)/SPC) co-oxidation process" was used to treat
ciprofloxacin (CIP) and various micropollutants (MPs), which owned better performance than …
