Some of the main topics included are: treatment at the source, monitoring & analysis, fate & behaviour during wastewater and sludge treatment, environmental & risk assessment, monitoring & control and prioritization/regulation & public acceptance. Additionally, other themes are considered such as biotransformation mechanisms, fate of nanoparticles, antibiotic resistance or microplastics in natural as well as engineering environments, etc.
