Understanding the impact of summer festival on the dynamic of micropollutant delivery to coastal wastewater treatment plant by Agne Jucyte-Cicine, Elise Lorre, Jolita Petkuviene, Zita R. Gasiunaite, Ema Durcova, Irma Vybernaite-Lubiene, Mindaugas Zilius

“…Pharmaceuticals and PAEs contributed most to the micropollutant load (25 g day−1 and 34 g day−1, respectively) discharged into the Baltic Sea during the festival. These findings provide novel insights into how temporal gatherings can increase pollution levels in the coastal areas of the Baltic region and highlight the potential for this pollution to be inadequately retained in treatment facilities, posing risks to the marine environment.…”
