Highlights
Several research works have been reported in the last few decades on the potential risks associated to the operation of Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTPs) due to the occurrence of a large variety of biological and chemical substances
While source control can be a useful strategy for the minimization of the entrance of some pollutants in WWTPs, LPS endotoxin will be inevitably present in the final effluents due to their generation along the biological treatment processes and low biodegradability [1]
The results showed that average values of 860 and 30 endotoxin units (EU)∙mL−1 were contained in both compartments, respectively, indicating that the physical effect caused by the membrane is the key factor (66% reduction)
Summary
Several research works have been reported in the last few decades on the potential risks associated to the operation of Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTPs) due to the occurrence of a large variety of biological and chemical substances. Major commonly known risks are related to respiratory and gastrointestinal problems In this sense, Daneshzadeh-Tabrizi et al [2] indicated that endotoxins are capable of causing an inflammatory reaction at the level of the lung-blood barrier. Daneshzadeh-Tabrizi et al [2] indicated that endotoxins are capable of causing an inflammatory reaction at the level of the lung-blood barrier Since it has been reported several adverse health effects for endotoxin and this organic micro-pollutant can augment the toxic agents, studies to assess endotoxin concentrations and their occurrence in raw and treated wastewater and efficiency of operating
