Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) are contaminants of emerging global concern, yet their long-term fate and distribution in strategic trans-boundary water source areas remain underexplored. This study conducted a comprehensive monitoring campaign spanning from 2018 to 2020, with six sampling campaigns carried out in August 2018, December 2018, May 2019, August 2019, December 2019, and May 2020, to investigate the occurrence, spatiotemporal dynamics, source apportionment, and ecological risks of 54 PPCPs in the surface water and sediments of the Taipu River in eastern China. Utilizing non-target screening via liquid chromatography high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS), 54 PPCPs across 15 categories were detected, with average total concentrations of 28.60 ng/L in surface water and 13.01 ng/g in sediments. Sulfonamides, quinolones, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) dominated the aqueous phase (with bisphenol A and sulfamethoxazole highly prevalent), while hormones (e.g., estriol) and quinolones (e.g., ciprofloxacin (CIP)) exhibited significant accumulation in the benthic zone. Spatiotemporal analysis revealed a seasonal pattern where PPCP concentrations were higher in the dry season than in the wet season, primarily driven by hydrological dilution and climate-induced degradation. Furthermore, Positive Matrix Factorization (EPA PMF 5.0) extracted five distinct source factors for each matrix. Specifically, surface water pollution was primarily driven by domestic wastewater, municipal effluents, medical discharges, and localized pharmaceutical emissions, whereas sediments acted as a long-term sink predominantly for domestic wastewater, agricultural/veterinary runoff, and municipal/industrial emissions. Ecological risk assessment indicated that while most of the nine high-frequency contaminants posed low risks, specific compounds such as CIP, SM2, and E3 presented medium risks in surface water, whereas ENR, CIP, and SPI posed medium risks in sediments. These findings emphasize that the continuous multi-source input and the resulting pseudo-persistence of PPCPs in sediments warrant prioritized continuous attention and targeted pollution control strategies in the Taipu River Basin.

Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) and Escherichia coli ( E. coli ) are ubiquitous in sewage posing adverse effects on both ecosystems and human health. Herein, we propose a multifunctional photoelectrochemical (PEC) system to simultaneously degrade PPCPs, disinfect E. coli , and produce H 2 . To this end, an optimized MoS 2 @BL-BiVO 4 photoanode with reduced bulk and surface charge recombination was synthesized, exhibiting a photocurrent density of 2.21 mA/cm 2 at 1.0 V vs. Ag/AgCl in actual sewage, 8.1 times that of P-BiVO 4 . The MoS 2 @BL-BiVO 4 photoanode achieved complete degradation of 2 ppm benzophenone-3 and inactivation of E. coli in sewage with 89.32 μmol H 2 evolution at 1.0 V vs. Ag/AgCl in 30 min. Chloride ions in the sewage played a critical role in the PEC system: they were activated to become chloride-based radicals ( Cl, ClO) for sewage treatment and worked as hole scavengers to increase H 2 evolution. Natural organic matters in the sewage played a dominant role in impeding the PEC reactions because they can quench the reactive species and were adsorbed onto the photoanode’s surface to block charge separation. The PEC system shows good efficiency when degrading various PPCPs, and excellent reusability and stability, giving it great practicality.

Trace amounts of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) in aquatic environment poses a non-negligible risk to human health. Here, an environmentally friendly cucurbit[7]uril-mediated magnetic-assisted matrix solid phase dispersion (Q[7]- m -MSPD) extraction method was developed for extracting PPCPs from complex aquatic organisms. The extraction of PPCPs were achieved via the host-guest interaction between Q[7] and targets, significantly reducing the matrix interference. Gold magnetic nanoparticles (AuMNPs) were chelated to Q[7]-target complexes and used for purification and enrichment via magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE), effectively replacing the complex operation of sample loading and elution on SPE columns in MSPD. Coupled with high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, multiple analysis of 14 PPCPs in 3 aquatic plants and an aquatic animal were achieved, with detection limits ranging from 0.0015 to 0.0179 μg/kg, recoveries ranging from 71.06 to 113.6 %, and enrichment factors within 46 to 152. The green chemistry assessment confirmed the environmental friendliness, economic feasibility, and application potential of the Q[7]- m -MSPD, with an AGREE score of 0.63 and a BAGI score of 72.5. By integrating the merits of MSPD and MSPE, the proposed approach exhibited high sensitivity and anti-interference capability, simple operation, and great environmental friendliness. Therefore, the approach provided a green method for simultaneously detecting multiple hazardous residues in complex matrices owing to the broad-spectrum molecular recognition capability of Q[7] , which has a good application prospect in food safety and environmental monitoring.
