Los disruptores endocrinos (EDC) abarcan clases estructuralmente diversas de contaminantes emergentes, incluidas principalmente hormonas esteroides sintéticas; productos farmaceuticos; productos químicos industriales; pesticidas; subproductos de combustión y dioxinas. Los EDC se pueden detectar y medir en ambientes acuáticos como aguas superficiales, aguas subterráneas, aguas residuales, escorrentía de vertederos y lixiviados, estos microcontaminantes son una amenaza para el medio ambiente y la salud pública, ya que estos elementos afectan negativamente las funciones de los órganos endocrinos. Los sistemas de tratamiento de efluentes convencionales no son efectivos para eliminar los EDC y se están realizando numerosos estudios en esta dirección para reducir la presencia de estos contaminantes en el medio ambiente. Este trabajo es una revisión bibliográfica, con el objetivo de resaltar los problemas ambientales de los EDC en el medio ambiente y citar algunas alternativas de tratamiento de efluentes disponibles para reducirlos.
