Environmental fate and ecotoxicological behaviors of antiviral drugs associated with COVID-19 in environmental water
In late 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic led to widespread use of antiviral drugs, causing their concentrations in aquatic environments to increase due to incomplete patient metabolism and improper waste disposal. This has raised concerns about potential harm to aquatic ecosystems and human health. This paper summarizes the classification and occurrence of COVID-19-related antiviral drugs in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), surface water, groundwater and drinking water. The effects of biological treatment, advanced oxidation technologies, and adsorption on the removal of COVID-19-related antiviral drugs from water, as well as the advantages, disadvantages, applicability and research progress of these technologies, are discussed. In addition, the transformation of COVID-19-related antiviral drugs is reviewed, and the toxicity risk of these drugs is evaluated. The results show that existing removal methods are mostly focused on the removal of single antiviral drug species, and each method has its limitations. Furthermore, few of these methods have been applied in practical engineering applications. Research on the transformation and toxicity evaluation of COVID-19-related antiviral drugs has mainly focused on several commonly used drugs, lacking systematic investigation. Therefore, it is imperative to develop effective strategies for removing COVID-19-related antiviral drugs from aquatic environment and to comprehensively evaluate water toxicity risks. Finally, the research on the removal of COVID-19-related antiviral drugs in water was prospected to provide reference for subsequent research.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Water Process Engineering aims to publish refereed, high-quality research papers with significant novelty and impact in all areas of the engineering of water and wastewater processing . Papers on advanced and novel treatment processes and technologies are particularly welcome. The Journal considers papers in areas such as nanotechnology and biotechnology applications in water, novel oxidation and separation processes, membrane processes (except those for desalination) , catalytic processes for the removal of water contaminants, sustainable processes, water reuse and recycling, water use and wastewater minimization, integrated/hybrid technology, process modeling of water treatment and novel treatment processes. Submissions on the subject of adsorbents, including standard measurements of adsorption kinetics and equilibrium will only be considered if there is a genuine case for novelty and contribution, for example highly novel, sustainable adsorbents and their use: papers on activated carbon-type materials derived from natural matter, or surfactant-modified clays and related minerals, would not fulfil this criterion. The Journal particularly welcomes contributions involving environmentally, economically and socially sustainable technology for water treatment, including those which are energy-efficient, with minimal or no chemical consumption, and capable of water recycling and reuse that minimizes the direct disposal of wastewater to the aquatic environment. Papers that describe novel ideas for solving issues related to water quality and availability are also welcome, as are those that show the transfer of techniques from other disciplines. The Journal will consider papers dealing with processes for various water matrices including drinking water (except desalination), domestic, urban and industrial wastewaters, in addition to their residues. It is expected that the journal will be of particular relevance to chemical and process engineers working in the field. The Journal welcomes Full Text papers, Short Communications, State-of-the-Art Reviews and Letters to Editors and Case Studies
