Llobregat River (North-East Spain) is the most important drinking water source for Barcelona and its surrounding area. As one of the only water sources in the area the river water have been overexploited and effluents from more than 30 urban wastewater treatment plants, industries and agriculture runoffs have been discharged into the river. This article reviews the presence of emerging contaminants published during the last decades, emphasizing on the observed effects on ecosystems caused by the contamination. Pesticides, surfactants, estrogens, pharmaceuticals and personal care products and even abuse drugs are the main groups detected in different studies, reporting alterations in species composition, abundance or biomass and endocrine disruption measured by alterations in enzymatic activity or specific protein production. The information available provides an overview of the river status according to the Water Framework Directive.
西班牙东北部的略夫雷加特河是巴塞罗那及其周边地区最重要的饮用水源。作为该地区唯一的水源之一，这条河的水资源已经被过度开采，超过 30 家城市污水处理厂、工业和农业径流的废水都被排放到河里。本文回顾了过去几十年发表的有关新兴污染物的研究，强调了污染对生态系统造成的影响。在不同的研究中，主要检测到的污染物有杀虫剂、表面活性剂、雌激素、药品和个人护理产品，甚至还有滥用药物，这些污染物报告了物种组成、丰度或生物量的变化，以及通过酶活性或特定蛋白质产生的变化来衡量的内分泌干扰。现有资料根据《水框架指令》概述了河流的状况。
