exhausted completely fall of biofilm forms on its surface and the microorganisms in this biofilm degrade the residues biologically so in other words this activated carbon has an advantage it can clean itself that of course also brings an economic advantage because we can leave the carbon in the filter for longer and that in turn lowers operating costs significantly. in twenty seventeen global sales of medications it around seven hundred ninety billion dollars that s one hundred fifty billion more than a decade before the race is on to find economical ways to sterilize water and remove drug residues but these researches have to be patient it can take about a year for a biofilm to form an activated carbon only then will they know whether the process could also work in large treatment plants. how often do you say yes when you really mean no. it happens
comment of corn is and to be effective medications have to fulfill certain criteria they must be stable but resistant. they need to have a long shelf life and reach certain parts of the body where they re needed so they have to remain stable during and sematic reactions. that stability is also the reason why the body doesn t completely absorbed medications so a proportion of the medications you take are eliminated by urine. up to seventy percent of the dye cliff and that he swallowed is excrete again residue from creams and gels is also rinsed away in the shower bath and ends up in the waste water. the bavarian researches have built a reactor that can break down stable drug residues in it wastewater is post with ozone the process is already used to kill. but it also breaks down drug residues into their constituent parts.
are concerned about drug residues. in the can and should in being a stickler for not we can prove with our own studies that even at low concentrations of an act has an effect on organisms in the water trout for instance . because of changes in their kills and in the kidneys and we re also focusing on a former for example birth control pills which in extreme cases they can lead to the feminization of organisms so for preventive reasons we don t want these substances and drinking water because. that s why a team of environmental scientist taking part in a pilot project at a big varian sewage treatment plant is now trying to filter drug residues out of waste water it s a real challenge because medicines don t break down easily. by made the comment of corn to be effective medications have to fulfill certain criteria they must be stable but resistance they need to have
waste water it s a real challenge because medicines don t break down easily. by made the comment of corn to be effective medications have to fulfill certain criteria they must be stable but resistant. they need to have a long shelf life and reach certain parts of the body where they re needed so they have to remain stable during and sematic reactions. that stability is also the reason why the body doesn t completely absorbed medications so a proportion of the medications you take are eliminated by urine. up to seventy percent of the dye cliff and knock you swallow is excrete again residue from creams and gels is also rinsed away in the shower bath and ends up in the waste water. the bavarian researches have built a reactor that can break down stable drug residues in it wastewater is pulsed with
the sun is a kind of what s special about this granulated activated carbon is that when this carbon is exhausted completely fall a bio film forms on its surface and the microorganisms in this biofilm degrade the residues biologically in other words this activated carbon has an advantage it can clean itself that of course also brings an economic advantage because we can leave the carbon in the filter for longer and that in turn lowers operating costs significantly. in twenty seventeen global sales of medications it around seven hundred ninety billion dollars that s one hundred fifty billion more than a decade before the race is on to find economical ways to sterilize water and remove drug residues but these researches have to be patient it can take about a year for a biofilm to form an activated carbon only then will they know whether the process could also work in large treatment plants. how often do
