Abstract

Water Contamination by Emerging Pollutants - A Multifaceted Issue

  • Compounds with multiple origins and sources.
  • A wide variety of chemical structures.
  • New emerging pollutants are still being identified and discovered.

"Despite the progress, there are wide geographical disparities, and 2 billion people still did not use safely managed drinking water in 2020.”

“The science is still not clear on the concentrations at which these contaminants pose a risk to human health.”

“Governments and other stakeholders should encourage and fund research in the water sector, work with academic institutions, and disseminate results to inform decisionmaking.”
