CONTEMPORARY TECHNOLOGIES FOR PESTICIDE REMOVAL IN WATER RESOURCES

Summary/Abstract: Pesticides are chemicals used in food production to control agricultural pests, leading to residual contamination of water systems. Clean water is essential for life, and pesticide pollution poses serious risks to organisms, including humans. Conventional wastewater treatment methods primarily focus on biological and mechanical processes, which are insufficient for completely removing organic micropollutants, including pesticides. Various treatment methods are employed, such as biological processing, physical chemical processes, and advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). Membrane bioreactor (MBR) technology is increasingly used as an alternative for treating pesticide contaminated wastewater. The effectiveness of these methods is influenced by factors such as membrane properties, hydrophobicity, and the chemical characteristics of the pollutants. Additionally, adsorption processes and photolytic methods are discussed as viable alternatives for pesticide removal. The paper analyses the importance of understanding the chemical and physical properties of the membrane to select the most effective treatment methods, advocating for a combination of approaches tailored to local conditions to safeguard water resources for future generations
