<Abstract>
<AbstractText>The present study investigates the biodegradation of pharmaceutically
active compounds (PhACs) by active biomass in activated sludge. Active heterotrophs (X(bh))
which are known to govern COD removal are suggested as a determining factor for biological
PhAC removal as well. Biodegradation kinetics of five polar PhACs were determined in
activated sludge of two wastewater treatment plants which differed in size, layout and
sludge retention time (SRT). Results showed that active fractions of the total suspended
solids (TSS) differed significantly between the two sludges, indicating that TSS does not
reveal information about heterotrophic activity. Furthermore, PhAC removal was significantly
faster in the presence of high numbers of heterotrophs and a low SRT. Pseudo first-order
kinetics were modified to include X(bh) and used to describe decreasing PhAC elimination
with increasing SRT.</AbstractText>
