AB  - The analysis of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and organophosphate flame 
      retardants (PFRs) in the different environmental compartments of a characteristic 
      coastal wetland, the Albufera Natural Park (Valencia, Spain), is required for 
      understanding the transport, accumulation and fate of these pollutants in an area 
      under high anthropogenic pressure. Samples included 13 wastewater treatment plant 
      influents, 13 effluents, 12 surface water, 19 sediment samples and 10 fish 
      individuals from the Albufera Natural Park and the surrounding area. 
      Tris(2-chloroisopropyl) phosphate (TCIPP) and perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) 
      were at the highest concentrations in water, 330.2 ng L(-1) and 47.8 ng L(-1), 
      respectively. In fish and sediment PFOS was also the most detected while 
      perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) was in all types of water. Higher levels of target 
      compounds (mainly PFASs) in wastewater effluents compared to influent suggested 
      both, formation from precursors during treatment and poor removal efficiency. 
      Mean levels of PFOS in water and fish were higher than the environmental quality 
      standards (EQS) established by the European Union Directive 2013/39/EU. The 
      influence of the metropolitan area of Valencia and its surrounding industrial 
      belt could explain the significantly higher levels reported in the northern part 
      (influenced by the Turia River).
