Abstract
The persistence and bioaccumulation of environmental pollutants in water bodies, soils and living tissues remain alarmingly related to environmental protection and ecosystem restoration. Adsorption-based techniques appear highly competent in sequestering several environmental pollutants. In this review, the recent research findings reported on the assessments of composts and compost-amended soils as adsorbents of heavy metal ions, dye molecules and xenobiotics have been appraised. This review demonstrates clearly the high adsorption capacities of composts for umpteen environmental pollutants at the lab-scale. The main inferences from this review are that utilization of composts for the removal of heavy metal ions, dye molecules and xenobiotics from aqueous environments and soils is particularly worthwhile and efficient at the laboratory scale, and the adsorption behaviors and effectiveness of compost-type adsorbents for agrochemicals (e.g. herbicides and insecticides) vary considerably because of variabilities in structure, topology, bond connectivity, distribution of functional groups and interactions of xenobiotics with the active humic substances in composts. Compost-based field-scale remediation of environmental pollutants is still sparse and arguably much challenging to implement if, furthermore, real-world soil and water contamination issues are to be addressed effectively. Hence, significant research and process development efforts should be promptly geared and intensified in this direction by extrapolating the lab-scale findings in a cost-effective manner.

Microbial community composition, co-occurrence network pattern and nitrogen transformation genera response to biochar addition in cattle manure-maize straw composting.

Abstract
A better understanding of the microbial group influencing nitrogen (N) dynamics and cycling in composting matrix is critical in achieving good management to alleviate N loss and improve final compost quality. This study investigated the bacterial composition, structure, co-occurrence network patterns and topological roles of N transformation in cattle manure-maize straw composting using high-throughput sequencing. The two treatments used in this experiment were cattle manure and maize straw mixture (CM) and CM with 10% biochar addition (CMB). In both treatments, the bacterial community composition varied during composting and the major phyla included Actinobacteria, Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes and Chloroflexi. The phyla Actinobacteria and Proteobacteria were more abundant in CMB treatment while Firmicutes was abundant in CM piles. The metabolic functional profiles of bacteria was predicted using the "phylogenetic investigation of communities by reconstruction of unobserved states" (PICRUSt) which revealed that except for cellular processes pathway, CMB had slight higher abundance in metabolism, genetic information processing and environmental information processing than the CM. Pearson correlation revealed more significant relationship between the important bacteria communities and N transformation in CMB piles compared with CM. Furthermore, network pattern analysis revealed that the bacterial networks in biochar amended piles are more complex and harbored more positive links than that of no biochar piles. Corresponding agreement of multivariate analyses (correlation heatmap, stepwise regression, Path and network analyses) revealed that Psychrobacter, Thermopolyspora and Thermobifida in CM while Corynebacterium_1, Thermomonospora and Streptomyces in CMB were key bacterial genera affecting NH4+-N, NO3--N and total nitrogen (TN) transformation respectively during composting process. These results provide insight into nitrogen transformation and co-occurrence patterns mediating microbes and bacterial metabolism which could be useful in enhancing compost quality and mitigating N loss during composting.

Abstract
The present investigation was design to evaluate the impact of different dosages of biochar on heavy metal resistant bacterial (HMRB) dynamic in biosolid (BS) compost. The bacterial abundance map was reveals that all the samples have 35 prominent genera and showed significant alteration of HMRB among the all biochar applied treatment. The main phyla identify in each treatments were Proteobacteria, Firmicutes and Chloroflexi, however, Pseudomonas, T78, Acinetobacter and Urebacillus were most abundant genera in all the treatment. The visualization of HMRB bio-diversity by bioinformatic tools and krona were clearly indicated a considerable difference in classification tree complexes and network analysis among the all biochar added treatments. Thus, in present study was found that HMRB like Paracoccus, Planomicrobium, Devosia and Agrobacterium viable hyper-thermo tolerant in BS compost. In addition, heat map analysis also confirmed that Proteobacteria, Firmicutes and Chloroflexi have significant correlation with physicochemical parameters.
