The capacity for removing wastewater-borne endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) was investigated for two wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) incorporating waste stabilisation ponds (WSPs) as the principal treatment technology. Samples were analysed for a number of steroidal oestrogens and androgens using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS). Removal efficiency for steroid androgens was high for both WWTPs (93-100%) but WSP treatment was observed to be less effective for removing steroid oestrogens, particularly oestriol.
研究了两家采用废水稳定塘（WSP）作为主要处理技术的污水处理厂（WWTP）去除废水中内分泌干扰化学物质（EDCs）的能力。使用液相色谱-串联质谱法（LC/MS/MS）对多种甾体雌激素和雄激素进行了分析。两种 WWTP 对甾体雄激素的去除效率都很高（93-100%），但 WSP 处理对去除甾体雌激素，特别是雌三醇的效果较差。
