Thus, autotrophic and heterotrophic types of biomass were here compared in terms of efficiency in the removal of estrone (E1), 17\u03b2-estradiol (E2), estriol (E3), 17\u03b1-ethynilestradiol (EE2) and bisphenol A (BPA). Experiments were performed with enriched nitrifying activated sludge (NAS) and enriched ammonia oxidizing bacteria (AOB) sludge cultivated at lab-scale, as well as with conventional activated sludge (CAS) from a full-scale wastewater treatment plant. Both enriched NAS and AOB demonstrated a negligible degrading capacity. In both cases, the studied EDCs exhibited low removals (&lt;14%) and showed no correlation with the increasing nitrification rates contradicting some of the hypothesis present in literature. Contrariwise, the biodegradation capabilities of the heterotrophic fraction of CAS were highlighted. E2 and E3 were removed by up to 100% and 78%, respectively. E1 was found to be the main transformation product of E2 (almost quantitative oxidation) and it was also highly eliminated. Finally, EE2 and BPA were more persistent biologically with removals ranging from 10% to 39%. For these two compounds similar removals were obtained during experiments with heat-inactivated biomass suggesting that sorption could be a relevant route of elimination.\u00a0<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-5a4c3be3 ts-col-stretched-none ts-bg-color-over-image elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"5a4c3be3\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-13353419 ts-bg-color-over-image\" data-id=\"13353419\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-740c23e2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-accordion\" data-id=\"740c23e2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"accordion.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-accordion\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-accordion-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-1941\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"1\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1941\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon elementor-accordion-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-closed\"><i class=\"fas fa-plus\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-opened\"><i class=\"fas fa-minus\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-accordion-title\" tabindex=\"0\">Informaci\u00f3 addicional<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1941\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"1\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1941\"><table style=\"border: hidden;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef;\">\n<td align=\"right\" width=\"200\"><strong>Year:<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>2019<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef;\">\n<td align=\"right\" width=\"200\"><strong>Authors:<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Kassotaki, E., Pijuan, M., Rodriguez-Roda, I., Buttiglieri, G.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef;\">\n<td align=\"right\" width=\"200\"><strong>Reference:<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Chemosphere, February 2019, Pages 659-668<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef;\">\n<td align=\"right\" width=\"200\"><strong>Link:<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><a href=\"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1016\/j.chemosphere.2018.11.012\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1016\/j.chemosphere.2018.11.012<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4e67c8d elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"4e67c8d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Authors: Kassotaki, E., Pijuan, M., Rodriguez-Roda, I., Buttiglieri, G.
