Abstract

Background and ObjectiveANTIBIOTICs are a group of EMERGING CONTAMINANTS in the aquatic environment. ANTIBIOTIC residues threaten the human health and ecosystem in the low concentrations found in the environment. Hence, the present work has been conducted to investigate the occurrence and removal efficiency of most prescribed ANTIBIOTICs including amoxicillin, penicillin, cefixime, cephalexin, ciprofloxacin, erythromycin and azithromycin detected in two urban WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANTs (WWTPs) in Tehran. Materials and MethodsThe present work is an applied research based on USEPA method no. 1694, to investigate pharmaceuticals residues in water by HPLC/MS/MS in year 2016. The differences between target ANTIBIOTICs residues were investigated statistically. After the calculation of the removal efficiencies, the normality of the data was assessed. Then, parametric and non-parametric tests were used to compare the removal efficiencies in both WWTPs. ResultsThere was not a significant difference between the influent and effluent concentrations of cefixime and azithromycin (in Ekbatan WWTP) and cefixime (in southern Tehran WWTP). There is a significant difference between the removal efficiencies of cephalexin (p=0. 005) and erythromycin (p=0. 002) in two WWTPs. The Highest median removal efficiencies were observed for cephalexin 94. 41 and 99. 47 in Ekbatan WWTP and southern Tehran WWTP, respectively. ConclusionIn addition to the type of treatment processes, it is physicochemical properties of the selected compound has a significant influence on removal efficiencies.
