AB  - The effluents of wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are the important sources 
      for pollutants. These pollutants may entry into surface water, groundwater, and 
      soil by recharging and irrigation then pose risk to human beings. Using reports 
      from the past 20 years (n = 58), we conducted this review of organic contaminants 
      (OCs) in the effluent of Chinese WWTPs. All the studies were during 2005 to 2017 
      and more than two papers were conducted in every year. Nineteen provinces (20 
      cities) were covered and most of the studies were located in the eastern part of 
      China, especially the most developed and highest density of population areas. Two 
      hundred eighty-four OCs were contained. E antibiotics, endocrine-disrupting 
      chemicals (EDCs), and pharmaceuticals were the most commonly studied groups of 
      OCs, and ofloxacin, norfloxacin, and sulfamethoxazole were the three most 
      commonly reported OCs. The highest concentration appeared for bisphenol A (BPA). 
      The relative standard deviations (RSDs) of concentrations of the most commonly 
      studied compounds were high. In the future, more studies should pay attention on 
      national analysis and more pollutants.
