20.500.12556/RUL-134217 Phycoremediation of municipal wastewater removal of nutrients and contaminants of emerging concern High-rate algal ponds (HRAP) are an alternative to conventional wastewater treatment that could contribute to the circular economy by valorising reclaimed water and algal biomass. This short communication presents the removal of nutrients and contaminants of emerging concern (CEC) in a pilot-scale HRAP treating primary municipal wastewater. Average removal of total organic carbon, total nitrogen, NH4-N, total phosphorus and PO4-P, was 67%, 76%, 87%, 41% and 46%, respectively. In addition, 12 CECs were detected in the influent and five in the effluent. Removals were as follows: naproxen 60%, ibuprofen 51%, methylparaben 92%, 2,4-dihydroxybenzophenone 76% and oxybenzone 80%, and are comparable with literature data for conventional wastewater treatment and other HRAPs. In conclusion, studies of nature-based solutions such as HRAPs show encouraging results but need further research to understand the risks and requirements of safe wastewater and biomass reuse. high rate algal pond contaminants nutrients phycoremediation ribnik z visoko stopnjo alg onesnaževalci hranila fikoremediacija true false true Angleški jezik Angleški jezik Članek v reviji 2021-12-30 08:26:45 2021-12-30 08:26:45 2022-09-13 03:53:59 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2021 0 0 Str. 1-6, 146949 Vol. 782 Aug. 2021 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 2021-01-22 2021-03-31 2021-04-07 502/504 0048-9697 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2021.146949 58688003 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0048969721020192 0 d684eb6b-6946-11ec-abdb-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=152562 RAZ_Skufca_David_2021.pdf RAZ_Skufca_David_2021.pdf 1 2F863B09270E2068226FFC85A083F87F 248424cc0abadc89af578188076858af50f79224bad2be71d4cedbf6d93de382 c004cb88-6943-11ec-abdb-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=152559 Zdravstvena fakulteta 0 0 0
