Assessing potential modifications to the activated sludge process to improve simultaneous removal of a diverse range of micropollutants. (2014)
Journal Article
PETRIE, B., MCADAM, E.J., LESTER, J.N. and CARTMELL, E. 2014. Assessing potential modifications to the activated sludge process to improve simultaneous removal of a diverse range of micropollutants. Water research [online], 62, pages 180-192. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.watres.2014.05.036

It is proposed that wastewater treatment facilities meet legislated discharge limits for a range of micropollutants. However, the heterogeneity of these micropollutants in wastewaters make removal difficult to predict since their chemistry is so dive...

Fate of drugs during wastewater treatment. (2013)
Journal Article
PETRIE, B., MCADAM, E.J., SCRIMSHAW, M.D., LESTER, J.N. and CARTMELL, E. 2013. Fate of drugs during wastewater treatment. Trends in analytical chemistry [online], 49, pages 145-159. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.trac.2013.05.007

Recent trends in the determination of pharmaceutical drugs in wastewaters focus on the development of rapid multi-residue methods. This review addresses recent analytical trends in drug determination in environmental matrices used to facilitate fate... Read More about Fate of drugs during wastewater treatment..
