OBJECTIVES
● Understanding of degradation mechanisms:
identification of TPs
● Combination of chemical and toxicological
analysis: interpretation of toxicity and
biodegradability results
● Detection of undesirable compounds
● Comparison of efficiency of different
treatments: applicability as tertiary treatments

● Understanding of degradation mechanisms:

CONCLUSIONS:
 The disappearance of the target compounds
do not assure the detoxification of treated
water: Formation of toxic TPs
TiO2

As toxicity is a biological response, the values
TiO2
obtained by a single toxicity assay can be
insufficient. Consequently, a battery of
bioassays is recommended.
