The widespread use of pharmaceuticals in both human and animal populations, and the resultant contamination of surface waters from the outflow of water treatment facilities is an issue of growing concern. This has raised the need for analytical methods that can both perform rapid sample analysis and overcome the limitations of conventional analysis procedures, such as multistep workflows and tedious procedures. Coated blade spray (CBS) is a solid-phase microextraction based technique that enables the direct-to mass-spectrometry analysis of extracted compounds via the use of limited organic solvent to desorb analytes and perform electrospray ionization. This paper documents how CBS can be applied for the concomitant tandem mass spectrometric (MS/MS) analysis of nine pharmaceuticals in treated wastewater. The total analysis times of less than 11 min provided limits of detection lower than 50 ng L-1 for all target compounds in river water. The CBS methodology was then compared to a conventional solid-phase extraction technique for the analysis of the final effluent of six wastewater treatment facilities. The experimental results strongly suggest that CBS offers scientists a viable alternative method for analyzing water samples that is both rapid and relatively solvent-free.

Experimental Study on Maize Cob Trickling Filter-Based Wastewater Treatment System: Design, Development, and Performance Evaluation
Ali, Imran; Khan, Zahid M.; Sultan, Muhammad; Mahmood, Muhammad H.; Farid, Hafiz U.; Ali, Mohsin; Nasir, Abdul (HARD Publishing Company, 2016-01-01)
In developing countries, good-quality water is contaminated due to the disposal of untreated municipal and industrial wastewater (WW) into natural water reservoirs. Most of the wastewater is not treated properly according to international standards, and usually is disposed of and/or utilized for irrigation without appropriate treatment. The main hurdles in providing wastewater treatment (WWT) in developing countries include high costs, and the poor design, installation, and operation of conventional WWT sys...
Enhancement of bio-gas production and xenobiotics degradation during anaerobic sludge digestion by ozone treated feed sludge
Ak, M. S.; Muz, M.; KOMESLİ, Okan Tarık; Gökçay, Celal Ferdi (Elsevier BV, 2013-08-15)
Elimination of large amounts of sludge produced during biological treatment is a pressing environmental issue both in this country and elsewhere. For example EU Landfill Directive 99/31/EC [41] prohibits landfilling of both liquid and untreated wastes with a target to reduce the current amount of bio-degradable wastes, including sewage sludge, 50% and 65% by the years 2013 and 2020, respectively. Anaerobic digestion has now proven to be the most energy efficient way of destroying and stabilizing waste activ...
Whole-cell fluorescent bacterial bioreporter for arsenic detection in water
Elcin, E.; Oktem, H. A. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-10-01)
Microbial whole-cell bioreporters have been developed for environmental monitoring of arsenic contamination. Despite the great interest in bacterial bioreporters for arsenite detection, relatively few studies reported their response to arsenate levels. In this study, green fluorescent protein-based whole-cell Escherichia coli bioreporter was constructed for the measurement of both bioavailable arsenite and arsenate in water. The developed bacterial bioreporter has much higher sensitivity toward arsenate in ...
Biodegradation of Chlorobenzene and Nitrobenzene at Interfaces between Sediment and Water
Kurt, Zöhre; Spain, Jim C. (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2012-11-06)
Plumes of contaminated groundwater often pass through an oxic/anoxic interface when they discharge into surface water bodies. We tested the hypothesis that contaminants recalcitrant under anaerobic conditions but degradable under aerobic conditions can be biodegraded at the interface resulting in the protection of the overlying water. Flow-through columns containing sediment and water were used to evaluate degradation of synthetic organic compounds at the thin organic layer at the sediment/water interface. ...
Impact of PCB-118 and transformer oil toxicity on anaerobic digestion of sludge: Anaerobic toxicity assay results
Kaya, Devrim; İmamoğlu, İpek; Sanin, Faika Dilek (Elsevier BV, 2013-08-01)
In this study, possible toxicity of increasing doses of PCB-118 and transformer oil (TO) on anaerobic sludge digestion was investigated. For this purpose, five different sets of reactors were prepared in which four different PCB-118 concentration (1, 10, 20, and 30 mg L-1) and three different TO concentration (0.38, 0.76, and 1.52 g L-1) were applied. Throughout the study, biogas production and composition, pH, TS, VS, and COD as well as PCB concentration were monitored. Toxicity was investigated by anaerob...
