Two PhD students in the Environmental Engineering research group are working with integrated industrial wastewater and stormwater management in the industry sector, which offers a stimulating environment for exchange of knowledge, interdisciplinary discussions, and help in laboratory and field work.
Several pharmaceuticals have been detected in the environment and negative impacts have also been described. The research will focus on water-saving low-cost and easy-to-manage toilet systems with focus on pharmaceuticals. The overall objective is to contribute to the development of sustainable alternative sanitation systems by comparing traditional WC with dry toilet systems, regarding pharmaceuticals with focus on public toilets. Therefore, the occurrence, fate, and degradation of pharmaceutical residues in selected toilet systems will be studied.
