Abstract(s)

Aquatic pollution caused by anthropogenic activities has been one of the major environmental problems worldwide for decades. Rapid industrialization and urbanization is releasing “traditional” and emerging pollutants into waters in unprecedented quantities and diversity, ultimately endangering biodiversity and human health. Meanwhile, the management and control of risks from chemical pollutants, with varying scientific composition, stringency, and efficacy, are being practiced in different countries and regions.
