Global monitoring of antimicrobial resistance based on metagenomics analyses of urban sewage

Nature Communications, 2019
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a serious threat to global public health, but obtaining representative data on AMR for healthy human populations is difficult. Here, we use metagenomic analysis of untreated sewage to characterize the bacterial resistome

Presence of SARS-Coronavirus-2 in sewage

medRxiv, 2020
In the current COVID-19 pandemic, a significant proportion of cases shed SARS-Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) with their faeces. To determine if SARS-CoV-2 is present in sewage during the emergence of COVID-19 in the Netherlands, sewage samples of 7 cities ...

Evaluation of the Use of Sewage Sludge Biochar as a Soil Amendment—A Review

Sustainability, 2022
In recent decades, minimization and recycling/reuse policies were introduced to reduce the quantities of generated waste and for alternative waste recovery. Organic wastes represent 46% of total global solid waste. Possible uses of organic wastes include

Practical application of ferrate(VI) for water and wastewater treatment: site study’s approach [PDF]

, 2018
This paper presents the work aiming to validate the practical feasibility of ferrate(VI) used as an alternative to the existing coagulant (e.g., ferric chloride/sulphate) for both drinking water and domestic sewage treatment via series of pilot plant ...
