Abstract

Antropogene onečišćujuće tvari su tvari prisutne u okolišu nastale uslijed ljudske aktivnosti. Identificirani izvori antropogenih onečišćujućih tvari, poput industrijskih otpadnih tokova i komunalnih otpadnih voda, predstavljaju ključne izazove u očuvanju okoliša. Globalna rasprostranjenost navedenih tvari ukazuje na potrebu za međunarodnom suradnjom i propisima kako bi se suzbile negativne posljedice antropogenog onečišćenja. U okviru rada prikazani su glavni izvori antropogenih onečišćujućih tvari, njihov utjecaj na čovjeka i ostale organizme, njihova rasprostranjenost diljem svijeta te su predstavljeni postupci njihova uklanjanja. Također, istaknuti su farmaceutici kao značajna skupina antropogenih onečišćujućih tvari, s posebnim naglaskom na analgetike i anksiolitike te glavne predstavnike navedenih skupina.

Abstract (english)

Anthropogenic pollutants are substances that are present in the environment as a result of human activities. Identified sources of anthropogenic pollutants, such as industrial waste streams and municipal wastewater, pose a major challenge to environmental protection.
The global distribution of these substances highlights the need for international cooperation and regulation to mitigate the negative impacts of anthropogenic pollution. The paper presents the main sources of anthropogenic pollutants, their effects on humans and other organisms, their global distribution and the methods for their removal. In addition, pharmaceuticals were highlighted as an important group of anthropogenic pollutants, with a focus on analgesics and anxiolytics and the main representatives of these groups.
