城市污水处理厂及其受纳水体中5种典型PPCPs的赋存特征和生态风险

以5种药品及个人护理用品(pharmaceuticals and personal care products,PPCPs)包括氯贝酸、酮洛芬、萘普生、双氯芬酸和布洛芬为目标物,初步研究了它们在上海某生活污水处理厂不同污水处理单元中的赋存特征和去除特性,探讨了污水处理厂受纳河流中5种PPCPs的分布情况,并对其在受纳水体中的生态风险进行了初步评估.结果表明,5种PPCPs在污水处理厂进水中均被检出,表明生活污水是污水处理厂中PPCPs的来源之一.5种PPCPs在整个污水处理工艺中不能全部去除,微生物转化/降解是主要降解机制.受纳污水河流中5种PPCPs的分布特征与污水处理厂出水中的相似,且排污口下游水体中目标物浓度普遍高于上游,反映出污水处理厂排放可能是其受纳水体中PPCPs的主要来源之一.初步风险评估结果表明,受纳水体中双氯芬酸存在高生态风险,而酮洛芬、萘普生、氯贝酸和布洛芬的生态风险相对较低.

Occurrence and Risk Assessment of Five Selected PPCPs in Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant and the Receiving Water

Five PPCPs, including clofibric acid(CA), diclofenac(DFC), ibuprofen(IBP), ketoprofen(KEP), and naproxen(NPX) were selected as target compounds to investigate their occurrence and removal efficiency in a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) of Shanghai. Furthermore, their distribution and potential toxicological risk in the WWTP receiving river water were investigated. The results showed that all targets were detected in WWTP influent, suggesting that domestic sewage discharge is an important source of PPCPs to the WWTP. Lower removal efficiency of these PPCPs was found in the WWTP and the main mechanism of elimination was biodegradation. The pattern of five selected PPCPs in the river was similar to that in WWTP effluent, indicating that WWTP effluent was a main source of PPCPs to the receiving water. Risk assessment showed that diclofenac posed a high risk, while ketoprofen, naproxen, clofibric acid and ibuprofen showed low risks to biota in the receiving river.
