\naffect organisms, leading to hormonal, immune and reproductive disorders. Traditional wastewater treatment
\nmethods are not effective in removing these pollutants, so additional solutions are needed. The new European
\nUnion Directive recommends the implementation of a fourth stage of wastewater treatment, which will allow for
\nmuch more effective removal of pharmaceutical residues. It can also play a key role in protecting the aquatic
\nenvironment and human health by reducing the introduction of harmful compounds into ecosystems. The proposed
\ntechnologies include processes such as ozonation and filtration using activated carbon. These methods not only
\nreduce the concentration of pharmaceuticals in water, but also, when the process is carried out correctly, reduce
\nthe overall toxicity of the wastewater. The results of research conducted in Poland on the effectiveness of these
\nsolutions confirm the necessity and effectiveness of introducing advanced treatment technologies. The paper
\npresents the results of research conducted using a mobile station and then a container pilot station utilising an
\ninnovative ozonation system at the Jaworzno-D\u0105b sewage treatment plant in the Silesian Province. The analysis of
\nthe efficiency of removing pharmaceuticals such as diclofenac, sulfamethoxazole and carbamazepine from
\ntreated wastewater and the results obtained at an average level of 96.4, 92.6 and 96.3%, respectively, as well
\nas lower ozone doses in terms of TOC than in the case of technologies used abroad, recommend the use of the
\ntechnology used in Jaworzno for implementation in full-scale wastewater treatment plants in Poland.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":[],"tags":[5018,745,1081,5017,3183],"tematyka":[387],"class_list":["post-24208","artykul","type-artykul","status-publish","hentry","tag-activated-carbon","tag-ozonation","tag-pharmaceuticals","tag-wastewater-toxicity","tag-wastewater-treatment-en","tematyka-water-supply-and-sewage-system","has-post-title","has-post-date","has-post-category","has-post-tag","has-post-comment","has-post-author",""],"ptb_metabox":{"ptb_artykul_text_1":["TOMASZ BERGEL","ROBERT MUSZA\u0143SKI","MICHA\u0141 KOSINIAK"],"ptb_artykul_text_2":"10.36119\/15.2025.12.17","ptb_artykul_numer_miesi_cznika":"12\/2025 Instal pp.98-102","ptb_artykul_info_autor":"dr hab. in\u017c.
