Various strategies applied for the removal of emerging micropollutant sulfamethazine: a systematic review

Sikandar I. Mulla et al.

Summary: Pharmaceutical active drug, particularly sulfamethazine (SMZ), is considered as a major emerging microcontaminant that can affect the development of antibacterial resistance genes due to its long-term presence in the environment. The widespread use of SMZ and its detection in various samples, including water, along with its toxic effects on microalgae and mice, has raised concerns. Therefore, further research is needed to investigate the removal and degradation of SMZ in wastewater treatment plants, including the use of engineered biological mediators.
