Talk Outline Review What Emerging Contaminants Are Discuss New York Wastewater Data Show ongoing Research on ECs

Emerging Contaminants in the News

Emerging Contaminants: Highly used unregulated compounds, often suspected of acting as endocrine disruptors Include: Pesticides (2,4-D) Pharmaceuticals (Fluoxetine) Detergent Degradates (para-Nonylphenol) Fragrances (AHTN) Others (Triclosan, fire retardants)

Removal of Selected Compounds Activated sludge plants seemed to perform well Trickling filter plant (D) significantly less successful Activated sludge plants seemed to perform well Trickling filter plant (D) significantly less successful

Plants Vary In Ability To Reduce ECs

Seasonal Variability

M&E-USGS Research Partnership Research Agenda Stage 1  Baseline Evaluation of Emerging Contaminants Stage 2  Focus on Wastewater Treatment Processes - Characterize Influent and effluent concentrations - Seasonal variation - Upstream and downstream concentrations - Individual treatment processes

Research – ECs in Biosolids and Treatment

Research – Water Reuse in New Jersey

P. Stackelberg – NJ Study of ECs in Finished Water 3 to 15 compounds detected per sample Pharmaceutical/Antibiotic Flame retardant/Plasticizer Fragrance Pesticide Plant/Animal steroid Detergent metabolite PAHs Others

Research - Boulder Creek, CO Study <0.8 ng/L E2 2.1 ng/L E2 1.4 ng/L E2 2.9 ng/L E21.2 ng/L E2 - Hormone levels elevated downstream of WWTP - Fish community and fish health assessment to be conducted (USGS / University of Colorado)

Emerging Contaminants Poorly understood Have potential to affect fish reproduction May be accumulating in sludge Can be removed by advanced wastewater treatment
