Regenerative Energie
Pharmaceutical compounds in the environment lately have been acknowledged to constitute a health risk for humans, terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Human and veterinary applications are the main sources of pharmaceuticals in the environment and the major pathways are excretion and discharge to the environment through sewage treatment plants (STP’s).
In this study, the occurrence of pharmaceutical compounds in the aquatic system of Kalamas River, which receives wastewater from the municipal STP of Ioannina city, was investigated. A monitoring program was carried out for the four seasons of the year 2006. The sampling months were May, July, October and December of 2006. Sixteen water samples from four sampling stations of the River were collected. The compounds investigated include frequently used pharmaceuticals belonging to various therapeutic categories, i.e., the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory, NSAID’s drugs salycilic acid, ibuprofen, paracetamol, naproxen and diclofenac, the antihyperlipidemics fenofibrate, bezafibrate and gemfibrozil, the sychomotor stimulant caffeine, the anti-epileptical carbamazepine, the analgesic/antipyretic phenazone and the disinfectant triclosan. The analytical method involves the concentration of water samples using solidphase extraction sorbents and analyzed by GC-MS.

Die innerstaatliche Umsetzung des Pariser Klimaschutzübereinkommens
- ein Rechtsvergleich

Like all public international law treaties, the Paris Climate Accords rely on national law for their implementation. The success of the agreement therefore depends, to a large extent, on the stepstaken or not taken by national governments and legislators as well as on the instruments and mechanisms chosen for this task. Against this background, the present article compares different approaches to the implementation of the Paris Agreement, using court decisions as a means to assess their (legal) effectiveness.
