To address the challenge of pharmaceutical pollution in the Baltic Sea area by identifying the causes of pollution and emissions.
1) Creating a background image in terms of regional consumption of pharmaceuticals, chemical burden caused by pharmaceuticals released from selected wastewater treatment plants in each region, as well as existing treatment systems in the four selected regions surrounding the southern part of Baltic Sea, 2) Preparing a scheme for the training course for wastewater treatment plants operators and professional staff at chemical laboratories and training material for participants of such courses.
