Description An outdoor experiment will be setup by a PhD student (Koen van Gein) in order to test methods to remove pharmaceuticals from (effluent) water. In this study, different removal strategies will be applied and evaluated for their effects on the aquatic ecosystems with special attention for macroinvertebrates. This will be done at the experimental facillity Sinderhoeve (Renkum) in small outdoor ecosystems.
