Abstract

Water pollution by pharmaceutical products (FP) and their derivatives is observed in many countries around the world and has a tendency to globalization. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct the researches, aimed at investigating pollution sources and determining their quantity in effluents. an alternative of instrumental measuring of concentrations of these substances in effluent and surface waters is their theoretical calculating. The paper proposes a method for calculating the concentration of the most commonly used FP, getting to effluent waters of hospitals, as well as to effluent waters formed as a result of transient treatment of patients in residential areas. The proposed approach of quantitative determination of pollutants can be used as a tool for screening and monitoring of effluent and surface waters as well as during consideration of project and operational issues related to sanitation and water treatment.
