Abstract
In recent decades, pharmaceuticals, responsible for saving millions of lives, have emerged as a new class of environmental contaminants. Considering the inefficiency of conventional treatments in treatment stations (ETE) combined with the lack of current legislation to control the presence of drugs in wastewater, the development of strategies and methods for their detection and removal be…
Development of Layered Double Hydroxide/Copper-Cysteamine Nanoparticles Systems for Environmental Applications: Pharmaceuticals Degradation, Pathogens Inactivation and Sensing, BP.PD
Abstract
Hospital effluents present high concentration of pharmaceutical residues, contaminants that are not totally eliminated by conventional methods of treatment of sewage. In order to eliminate these contaminants, Advanced Oxidation Processes (POA) have deserved prominence, due to the ability of the hydroxyl radical (HO*) to oxidize the organic matter to CO2, H2O and inorganic ions. This study…

Abstract
Pharmaceutical residues, such as anticancer drugs and antibiotics, can persist in the environment after being discharged in wastewater, posing significant risks to ecosystems and human health. Conventional wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are typically ineffective at removing these pollutants. The absence of specific legislation and the challenges associated with detecting these residu…
Copper-Cysteamine/Layered Double Hydroxides with lanthanides for environmental applications: detection of pharmaceutical residues and degradation by heterogeneous photocatalysis, BE.EP.PD

Completed (most recent)

Abstract
Wastewater treatment plants are not designed to remove pharmaceuticals such as antibiotics, present in nanograms per liter and micrograms per liter concentration range. Consequently, inadequate discharge of municipal wastewaters may cause serious negative impact on ecosystems and threat to human health such as bacterial resistance to antibiotics. This project aims to expand the work under…
