Popis: The presence of contaminants of emerging concern (CEC) in drinking water was reported in many studies (Reddersen et al. in Chemosphere, 49(6):539–544, 2002), (Benotti et al. in Environ Sci Technol, 43(3):597–603, 2008), (Dunn et al. in Int J Environ Res Publ Health, 11(5):4634–4651, 2014). Organic contaminants such as pharmaceuticals and pesticides residues which result from human activities in different sectors, and escape from traditional treatments by wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) (Haroune et al. in Environ Sci Technol, 51(2):897–904, 2017), (Verlicchi et al. in Sci Total Environ, 429:123–155, 2012), (Boussahel et al. Tests on the elimination of present pesticides in Algerian waters. ANDRS, Oran, pp. 38–40, 2003) so they might affect human health (Focazio et al. in Sci Total Env, 402(2):201–216, 2008).
