Municipal wastewater treatment plants (MWTPs) have long been recognized to be of concern as a significant source for many contaminants of historical as well as many new contaminants of emerging concern (CEC) such as pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs), and flame retardants. The health concerns associated with these contaminants include non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic health effects and potential for endocrine disruption. The applicant has conducted research on two research projects to better understand and manage contaminant loadings to the environment resulting from MWTP effluents. The proposed research program will extend the findings from both the research projects, as discussed below.

城市污水处理厂（MWTP）长期以来一直被认为是许多历史污染物以及许多新兴污染物（CEC）的重要来源，如药品和个人护理产品（PPCP）和阻燃剂。与这些污染物有关的健康问题包括非致癌和致癌的健康影响以及内分泌干扰的可能性。申请人对两个研究项目进行了研究，以更好地了解和管理MWTP废水对环境造成的污染物负荷。拟议的研究计划将扩展这两个研究项目的结果，如下所述。
