Abstract

Use of reclaimed water in agricultural applications is an important way of meeting high water demands in areas of water scarcity. Concerns arise with regard to the presence of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) that may persist through treatment processes and potentially bioaccumulate into food crops destined for human consumption, such as pharmaceuticals, personal care products, and perfluorinated surfactants. The goal of this study is to quantify bioaccumulation of CECs into food crops from reclaimed water using controlled greenhouse studies.
This project examines the bioaccumulation of CECs from reclaimed water into different tissues of strawberry and lettuce plants, and aims to elicit predictable trends between accumulation and chemical structure.
