In this study, an analytical method was developed for the quantification of statins Atorvastatin and Simvastatin, in hospital effluent (University Hospital of Santa Maria, using Solid phase extraction and Dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction, followed in liquid chromatography coupled to diode array detector. The principal variables of Dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction were investigated with aid of experimental central composite design. The recovery rates of Solid phase extraction varied from 95% for Atorvastatin and 83.2% for Simvastatin, in aqueous solution, and 92.0% for Atorvastatin and 81.5% for Simvastatin, in hospital effluent. As for the Dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction the recovery rates ranged from 85.5% for Atorvastatin and 89.4% for Simvastatin, in aqueous solution, and 83.0% for Atorvastatin and 83.1% for Simvastatin, in hospital effluent. The sampling was carried out in two sample points called Emergency Effluent and General Effluent . The concentration rates detected in the effluent were 30.1 μg L-1 in Emergency Effluent and 29.0 μg L-1 in General Effluent for Atorvastatin and 37.1 μg L-1 in Emergency Effluent and 36.1 μg L-1 in GE for Simvastatin. Ozonation and electrocoagulation were applied for the degradation/removal of statins. The principal variables of electrocoagulation were investigated with aid of experimental central composite design. The degradation rate obtained in ozonation was 100% for Atorvastatin, in 25 minutes reaction for aqueous solution and hospital effluent; and 100% for Simvastatin, in 4 minutes reaction for aqueous solution and 10 minutes reaction in hospital effluent. As for the electrocoagulation the removal rate was 75.6% in aqueous solution and 70.9% in hospital effluent for Atorvastatin; and 100% in aqueous solution and hospital effluent for Simvastatin in 60 minutes reaction. A preliminary risk evaluation revealed that the statins showed a low environmental risk, PEC/PNEC < 1.
