Overview
The special issue focuses on antimicrobial resistance and state-of-the-art research in relation to urban wastewater. It accepts contributions in the following thematic areas:
Thematic area 1:Fate of antimicrobial resistance in urban wastewater treatment plants
The microbiomes and resistomes of wastewater
Fate of clinically relevant antimicrobial resistant bacteria in wastewater treatment
Fate of non-cell associated antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) in wastewater
Horizontal transfer of antimicrobial resistance in wastewater treatment plants
Chemical, physical, and biological drivers affecting resistance evolution/selection in wastewater and recycled wastewater products
Thematic area 2: Antimicrobial resistance: From urban wastewater treatment plants to the environment
Behaviour, transmission and fate of antimicrobial resistance in receiving environments
Uptake, translocation and metabolism of antibiotics / acquisition of ARGs by plant associated bacteria (e.g. rhizosphere, rhizoplane, phylosphere and endophytes) during irrigation with treated wastewater.
Predicting the fate of antimicrobial resistance determinants in receiving environments using modeling approaches
Stress mechanisms and environmental impacts related to dissemination of ARGs
Thematic area 3: Emerging processes and technologies to meet urban treated wastewater reuse requirements in relation to antimicrobial resistance
WWTP technologies to address reuse challenges
Disinfection processes and technologies to address reuse challenges
Emerging technologies to address reuse challenges
Thematic area 4: Risk assessment and policy development to tackle antimicrobial resistance in the urban water cycle
Data management, monitoring and prioritisation, coordinated surveillance
Risk assessment and approaches and frameworks
Methodological challenges in the determination and evaluation of ARGs in effluents
Inclusion of molecular tools for antimicrobial resistance in legislation
