Unfortunately, WWTPs are not designed to remove CECs and secondary e.g., conventional activated sludge process, CAS and tertiary such as filtration and disinfection treatments are not effective in the removal of most CECs entering WWTP. Accordingly, several advanced treatment methods have been investigated for the removal of CECs from wastewater, including consolidated namely, activated carbon AC adsorption, ozonation and membranes and new such as advanced oxidation processes AOPs processes/technologies. This review paper gathers the efforts of a group of international experts, members of the NEREUS COST Action ES1403 who for three years have been constructively discussing the state of the art and the best available technologies for the advanced treatment of urban wastewater. In particular, this work critically reviews the papers available in scientific literature on consolidated ozonation, AC and membranes and new advanced treatment methods mainly AOPs to analyse i their efficiency in the removal of CECs from wastewater, ii advantages and drawbacks, iii possible obstacles to the application of AOPs, iv technological limitations and mid to long term perspectives for the application of heterogeneous processes, and v a technical and economic comparison among the different processes/technologies. 2018 Elsevier B.V. 655 Published version https //www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri eid=2 s2.0 85057125714 doi=10.1016%2fj.scitotenv.2018.11.265 partnerID=40 md5=584778aba8dc559f1c6729eb5c306b77 cited By 0 Consolidated vs new advanced treatment methods for the removal of contaminants of emerging concern from urban wastewater paper pdf 2019 STOTEN con Nereus .pdf Articolo in rivista Elsevier 0048 9697 Science of the total environment Science of the total environment Sci. total environ. giuseppe.mascolo MASCOLO GIUSEPPE |
