Resumo(s)

Emerging Micropollutants are a subclass of Pollutants and they can be classified as Persistent Organic Pollutants, Endocrine Disrupting Compounds and Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care Products (PPCP´s). These compounds may cause undesired effects to health or to the environment when used in high quantities or wrong ways. Generally, a pharmaceutical drug is prescribed to cause the desired therapeutic effect. However after their use, even at low concentrations they can retain their physicochemical properties [1]. Because of these effects, among others, PPCP’s are substances excreted in relevant quantities by the human body and are not effectively removed from water in sewage treatment plants [2].
