  abstract = {{W}astewater tertiary treatment by advanced oxidation processes is thought to produce a treated effluent with lower toxicity than the initial influent. {H}ere we performed tertiary treatment of a secondary effluent collected from a {W}aste {W}ater {T}reatment {P}lant via homogeneous (solar/{HSO}5-/{F}e2+) and heterogeneous (solar/{T}i{O}2) solar advanced oxidation aiming at the assessment of their effectiveness in terms of contaminants' and toxicity abatement in a plain solar reactor. {A} total of 53 organic contaminants were qualitatively identified by liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry after solid phase extraction. {S}olar advanced oxidation totally or partially removed the major part of contaminants detected within 4.5 h. {S}tandard toxicity tests were performed using {V}ibrio fischeri, {D}aphnia magna, {P}seudokirchneriella subcapitata and {B}rachionus calyciflorus organisms to evaluate acute and chronic toxicity in the secondary or tertiary effluents, and the {EC}50% was calculated. {E}strogenic and genotoxic tests were carried out in an attempt to obtain an even sharper evaluation of potential hazardous effects due to micropollutants or their degradation by-products in wastewater. {G}enotoxic effects were not detected in effluent before or after treatment. {H}owever, we observed relevant estrogenic activity due to the high sensitivity of the {HELN} {ER} alpha cell line.},
