Ecotoxicological Assessment of Biosolids: A Key Element for Sustainable Wastewater Management: Minireview
摘要
Sustainable sewage sludge management necessitates rigorous environmental impact assessment. This minireview examines biosolids ecotoxicity evaluation, synthesizing knowledge on bioassays for land application. It highlights the importance of understanding how contaminants (heavy metals, pharmaceuticals) impact soil health and ecosystems. Methodologies for assessing biosolids ecotoxicity are reviewed, alongside challenges in safe application. This review provides a comprehensive overview of tools for evaluating biosolids ecotoxicity, aiming to foster sustainable management practices protective of environmental and human health.
