New #Publication on "#Degradation of #Toxins and #Metabolites of #Cyanobacteria and #Micropollutants during #Biological Sand #Filtration"
by Valentin Rougé, Urs von Gunten, Anne Dax, Oliver Köster from Eawag and Water works Zürich! doi.org/10.1021/acs....

Wastewater contains large amounts of antibiotics.

Researchers from @heyrovskeho-ustav.bsky.social have come up with a new idea for removing them more effectively by harnessing the power of light – photocatalysis.
