In recent decades anthropogenic contamination involves a wide range of emergent pollutants. They have become an inseparable part of the human population. However, they are also a global environmental problem. My thesis is focused on pharmaceuticals and personal care products, which are a source of emergent pollutants. The sources of these preparations and products are excessive consumption of medicine su ch as analgesics, antibiotics, hormones, but also the use of cosmetics, cleaning and disinfecting products. Their constant additions to waste water raise concerns about their potential toxicity and environmental consequences. Conventional wastewater treatment plants cannot sufficiently remove these substances. These substances penetrate the water cycle and can subsequently reach the human body. The aim of the my bachelor thesis is to review the environmental and safety aspects of selected emergent pollutants in the environment using safety data cards and the possibility of their effective removal. By introducing innovative cleaning methods that help or replace conventional wastewater treatment plants, it is possible to effectively eliminate the toxic mixture of these specific pollutants. An example is the possibility of introducing intensive and extensive cleaning processes, which can remove emergent pollutants in large quantities. They differ in material, energy and financial demands. By using innovative methods, we can ensure a high quality of wastewater treatment, without the presence of specific toxic substances that are dangerous not only for the aquatic environment but also for human life.
