Abstract

Pharmaceutical and personal care product contaminants (PPCPs) are a representative group of emerging contaminants. The improvement of human living standards and the development of medical technology have led to an increase in the accumulation and release of PPCPs in the environment. This paper aims to investigate the current status of PPCPs pollution and their treatment technology. Currently, there are abundant types of PPCPs, originating from residences, medical facilities, PPCP producers, etc. The main detection techniques for PPCPs are UPLC and HPLC, which can detect efficiently and quantitatively.There are high ecological and environmental risks as well as human health risks associated with the pollution of PPCPs. In addition, this paper further introduces the new technologies and research related to the removal and control of PPCPs at home and abroad, which are mainly divided into physical, chemical and biological methods, and analyzes the scenarios and limitations of each method. Finally, the challenges and problems of PPCPs pollution control are analyzed, and the research outlook of applying the emerging removal technologies to actual wastewater treatment facilities is presented. The study in this paper can provide a reference for further research on PPCPs treatment.
