Removal of Estrogen from Water Using Membrane

Smita Mohan Tahaliyani | Dr. Saniya Harish Lade [3]


Abstract: Estrogen contamination from products such as birth control and estrogen therapy has led to possible health concerns when consumed from drinking water sources. It is unhealthy for the human body, animals, and the environment, causing feminization in humans and the birth of more females. This paper presents the evaluation of retention of such natural estrogens as estrone (E1), estradiol (E2) and estriol (E3) as well as synthetic compounds considered to be endocrine disrupting substances (EDs) using membrane. Reverse Osmosis is used for the separation. For polyethersulphone membranes the retention of estrogens using reverse osmosis is studied in this paper.
