Atorvastatin (ATO), rosuvastatin (RST) and simvastatin (SIM) are commonly used drugs that belong to the statin family (lowering human blood cholesterol levels) and have been detected as contaminants in natural waters. Stability and removal of ATO, RST and SIM from spiked wastewater produced at the Al-Quds University campus were investigated. All three statins were found to undergo degradation in wastewater (activated sludge). The degradation reactions of the three drugs in wastewater at room temperature follow first-order kinetics with rate constants of 2.2 × 10⁻⁷ s⁻¹ (ATO), 1.8 × 10⁻⁷ s⁻¹ (RST) and 1.8 × 10⁻⁶ s⁻¹ (SIM), which are larger than those obtained in pure water under the same conditions, 1.9 × 10⁻⁸ s⁻¹ (ATO), 2.2 × 10⁻⁸ s⁻¹ (RST) and 6.2 × 10⁻⁷ s⁻¹ (SIM). Degradation products were identified by LC-MS and LC/MS/MS. The overall performance of the wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) installed in the Al-Quds University campus towards the removal of these drugs was assessed showing that more than 90% of spiked ATO, RST and SIM were removed. In order to evaluate the efficiency of alternative removal methods to replace ultra-filtration membranes, adsorption isotherms for the three statins were investigated using both activated carbon and clay-micelle complex as adsorbents. The batch adsorption isotherms for the three statins were found to fit the Langmuir equation, with a larger number of adsorption sites and binding affinity for micelle-clay composite compared with activated carbon and filtration experiments of the three statins and their corresponding metabolites demonstrated a more efficient removal by micelle-clay filters.

This study aims to use the tissues of Cyclamen persicum tubers to prepare activated carbon (CTAC) by different methods then to set up a thermodynamic study of the pharmaceutical diclofenac sodium (DCF) adsorption from aqueous solution onto this activated carbon. Optimum percent of DCF removal was 72% when CTAC dosage was 0.25 g and DCF concentration 50 mg/L. Percentage removal of DCF increases when the concentration of DCF increases as the maximum percentage removal reached 81% when DCF concentration was 70 mg/L and 0.7 g CTAC and pH ranging from 6 to 2.Freundlich model describes efficiently adsorption isotherm of DCF onto CTAC with n equal to 1.398 whose value indicates a favorable adsorption. This finding validates the assumption of multilayer physical adsorption process of DCF. The results showed that DCF was physically adsorbed onto CTAC, as confirmed by the values of DH°minor than 40 kJ/mol. As DG°had negative charge, the adsorption process is exothermic, and the adsorption process of the DCF onto CTAC is spontaneous, depending on temperature. ª 2014 The Authors.

The efficiency of Al-Quds Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP), which includes sequential elements as activated sludge, ultrafiltration, activated carbon column and reverse osmosis, to remove spiked ibuprofen, a non steroid anti inflammatory drug (NSAID), was investigated. Kinetic studies in pure water and in the activated sludge indicated that the drug was stable during one month of observation. Besides, the overall performance of the integrated plant showed complete removal of ibuprofen from wastewater. Activated carbon column, which was the last element in the sequence before the reverse osmosis system, yielded 95.7% removal of ibuprofen. Batch adsorptions of the drug by using either activated charcoal or composite micelle-clay system were determined at 25°C and well described by Langmuir isotherms. Octadecyltrimethylammonium (ODTMA) bromide and montmorillonite were used to prepare the micelle-clay adsorbent, for which the adsorption kinetics are much faster than activated charcoal. Results suggest that integrating clay-micelle complex filters within the existing WWTP may be promising in improving removal efficiency of the NSAID.
