Anthropogenic Gd in Surface Water, Drainage System, and the Water Supply of the City of Prague, Czech Republic
Abstract
The anthropogenic Gd (Gdant) loads and fluxes of surface- and groundwaters, and of effluents from sewage treatment plants of Prague and its surroundings, have been determined. While passing Prague the Gdant load of the Vltava river increases from 4.5 to 19.2 nmol/m3, which is caused by the effluents of the central sewage treatment plant with a 6 day average of 250 nmol/m3. The Berounka river with its enhanced content doubles the Gdant flux of the Vltava river before entering Prague. All minor creeks draining Prague add less than 3% of the Gdant load in the Vltava river downstream of Prague. The 11-days average of the amount of the administered Gd complexes of the gadopentetic acid (Gd-DTPA), gadobenic acid, and other compounds in Prague's hospitals (22 g-Gdant/d) exceeds the 6 days average of 15 g-Gdant/d in the effluent of the central sewage treatment plant. This strongly indicates uncontrolled losses of sewage from sewers to the groundwater.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
