| Summary: | Numerous studies have shown the presence of hormonal endocrine disruptors (EDCs) such as Estrone (E1), Estradiol (E2), Estriol (E3) and Ethynilestradiol (EE2) in rivers, wastewater, bottled water and drinking water. Resulting from the excretion of humans, animals, and agricultural products. The presence of these compounds is of great concern since they are not controlled in water treatment systems and generate problems in the environment, as well as affecting the health of people and animals even at very low concentrations (0.7 ng/L). Due to these reasons, in recent years the effectiveness of different water removal processes for these compounds has been studied. This study performed a literature review on the effectiveness of activated carbon (AC) and advanced ultraviolet/hydrogen peroxide (UV/H2O2) methods for the removal of E1, E2, E3 and EE2 with emphasis on drinking water treatment to increase its safety. |
