Effects of iron-carbon materials on microbial-catalyzed reductive dechlorination of polychlorinated biphenyls in Taihu Lake sediment microcosms: Enhanced chlorine removal, detoxification and shifts of microbial community. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2021; 792:148454. [PMID: 34465049 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2021.148454] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2021] [Revised: 06/09/2021] [Accepted: 06/10/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Nano zero-valent iron particles (nZVI, 0.09 wt%), micro zero-valent iron particles (mZVI, 0.09 wt%), granular activated carbon (GAC, 3.03 wt%), GAC supported nZVI (nZVI/GAC, 3.12 wt%) and nZVI&GAC (nZVI 0.09 wt%, GAC 3.03 wt%) were evaluated for their effects on polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) anaerobic reductive dechlorination, detoxification, as well as microbial community structure in Taihu Lake (China) sediment microcosms. The results showed that all of these five materials could stimulate PCBs reductive dechlorination, especially for dioxin-like PCB congeners, and nZVI&GAC had the best removal effect on PCBs. The reduction of total PCBs increased from 13.5% to 33.2%. H2 generated by zero-valent iron corrosion was utilized by organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRB) to enhance the dechlorination of PCBs predominantly via meta chlorine removal in the short term. The addition of ZVI had little impact on the total bacterial abundance and the microbial community structure. The adsorption of GAC and potential bioremediation properties of attached biofilm could promote the long-term removal of PCBs. GAC, nZVI/GAC, nZVI&GAC had different influences on the microbial structure. These findings provide insights into the biostimulation technique for in situ remediations of PCBs contaminated sediments.

Abstract
Bioremediation of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) is impeded by difficulties in massively cultivating bioinoculant. Meanwhile, sewage sludge is rich in pollutant-degrading microorganisms and nutrients, drawing our attention to investigate their potential to be used as a supplement for bioremediation of PCBs. Here we reported extensive microbial reductive dechlorination of PCBs by waste activated sludge (WAS) and digestion sludge (DS), which were identified to harbor multiple putative organohalide-respiring bacteria (i.e., Dehalococcoides, Dehalogenimonas, Dehalobacter, and uncultivated Dehalococcoidia) and PCB reductive dehalogenase genes (i.e., pcbA4 and pcbA5). Consequently, amendment of 1-20% (w/w) fresh WAS/DS enhanced the attenuation of PCBs by 126-544% in a soil microcosm compared with the control soil, with the fastest dechlorination of PCBs being achieved when spiked with 20% fresh WAS. Notably, dechlorination pathways of PCBs were also changed by sludge amendment. Microbial and physicochemical analyses revealed that the enhanced dechlorination of PCBs by sludge amendment was largely attributed to the synergistic effects of sludge-derived nutrients, PCB-dechlorinating bacteria, and stimulated growth of beneficial microorganisms (e.g., fermenters). Finally, risk assessment of heavy metals suggests low potential ecological risks of sludge amendment in soil. Collectively, our study demonstrates that sewage sludge amendment could be an efficient, cost-effective and environment-friendly approach for in situ bioremediation of PCBs.

Abstract
Highly enriched active dechlorinating cultures are important in advancing microbial remediation technology. This study attempted to enrich a rapid perchloroethene (PCE) dechlorinating culture via magnetic nanoparticle-mediated isolation (MMI). MMI is a novel method that can separate the fast-growing and slow-growing population in a microbial community without labelling. In the MMI process, PCE dechlorination was enhanced but the subsequent trichloroethene (TCE) dechlorination was inhibited, with TCE cumulative rate reached up to 80.6% within 70 days. Meanwhile, the microbial community was also changed, with fast-growing genera like Dehalobacterium and Petrimonas enriched, and slow-growing Methanosarcina almost ruled out. Relative abundances of several major genera including Petrimonas and Methanosarcina were positively related to TCE dechlorination rate and the relative abundance of Dehalococcoides. On the other hand, Dehalobacterium was negatively related to TCE dechlorination rate and Dehalococcoides abundance, suggesting potential competition between Dehalobacterium and Dehalococcoides. The regrowth of Methanosarcina coupled well with the recovery of TCE dechlorination capacity, which implied the important role of methanogens in TCE dechlorination. Via MMI method, a simpler but more active microbial consortium could be established to enhance PCE remediation efficiency. Methanogens may act as the indicators or biomarkers for TCE dechlorination, suggesting that methanogenic activity should also be monitored when enriching dechlorination cultures and remediating PCE contaminated sites. CAPSULE: A rapid perchloroethene dechlorinator was gotten via magnetic nanoparticles and dechlorination of trichloroethene coupled well with growth of Methanosarcina.

Abstract
Pollution induces pressure to soil microorganism; and conversely, the degradation of pollutants is reported largely regulated by the soil microbiome assembly in situ. However, the specific-dependent core taxa of degraders were barely confirmed, which is not conducive to improving the soil remediation strategy. Taking pollution of a typical organochlorine pesticide (OCP), lindane, as an example, we explored the microbial community assembly in flooded soils and simultaneously quantified the corresponding dynamics of typical soil redox processes. Contrasting initial status of microbial diversity was set up by gamma irradiation or not, with additives (acetate, NaNO3, acetate + NaNO3) capable of modifying microbial growth employed simultaneously. Microorganism under lindane stress was reflected by microbial adaptability within complex co-occurrence networks, wherein some environment-dependent core taxa (e.g., Clostridia, Bacteroidia, Bacilli) were highly resilient to pollution and sterilization disturbances. Lindane had higher degradation rate in irradiated soil (0.96 mg kg-1 d-1) than non-irradiated soil (0.83 mg kg-1 d-1). In non-irradiated soil, addition of acetate promoted lindane degradation and methanogenesis, whereas nitrate inhibited lindane degradation but promoted denitrification. No significant differences in lindane degradation were observed in irradiated soils, which exhibited low-diversity microbiomes in parallel to stronger Fe reduction and methanogenesis. The varied corresponding trigger effects on soil redox processes are likely due to differences of soil microbiome, specifically, deterministic or stochastic assembly, in response to pollution stress under high or low initial microbial diversity conditions. Our results improve the knowledge of the adaptability of disturbed microbiomes and their feedback on microbial functional development in OCP-polluted soils, achieving for a more reliable understanding with respect to the ecological risk of soils resided with OCPs under the fact of global microbial diversity loss.

Abstract
Surface sediments of polluted urban rivers can be a reservoir of hydrophobic persistent organic pollutants (POPs). In this study, we comprehensively assessed the contamination of two groups of POPs, that is, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), in 173 black-odorous urban rivers in China. Spatial distribution of PCBs and PBDEs showed similar patterns but very different contamination levels in surface sediments, that is, average concentrations of 10.73 and 401.16 ng/g dw for the ∑PCBs and ∑PBDEs, respectively. Tetra-/di-CBs and deca-BDE are major PCBs and PBDEs and accounted for 59.11 and 95.11 wt % of the ∑PCBs and ∑PBDEs, respectively. Compared with the persistence of PBDEs, the EF changes of chiral PCBs together with previous cultivation evidence indicated indigenous bioconversion of PCBs in black-odorous urban rivers, particularly the involvement of uncharacterized Dehalococcoidia in PCB dechlorination. Major PCB sources (and their relative contributions) included pigment/painting (25.36%), e-waste (22.92%), metallurgical industry (13.25%), and e-waste/biological degradation process (10.95%). A risk assessment indicated that exposure of resident organisms in urban river sediments to deca-/penta-BDEs could pose a high ecological risk. This study provides the first insight into the contamination, conversion and ecological risk of PCBs and PBDEs in nationwide polluted urban rivers in China.

Abstract
Sulfur as a macroelement plays an important role in biochemistry in both natural environments and engineering biosystems, which can be further linked to other important element cycles, e.g. carbon, nitrogen and iron. Consequently, the sulfur cycling primarily mediated by sulfur compounds oxidizing microorganisms and sulfur compounds reducing microorganisms has enormous environmental implications, particularly in wastewater treatment and pollution bioremediation. In this review, to connect the knowledge in microbial sulfur metabolism to environmental applications, we first comprehensively review recent advances in understanding microbial sulfur metabolisms at molecular-, cellular- and ecosystem-levels, together with their energetics. We then discuss the environmental implications to fight against soil and water pollution, with four foci: (1) acid mine drainage, (2) water blackening and odorization in urban rivers, (3) SANI® and DS-EBPR processes for sewage treatment, and (4) bioremediation of persistent organic pollutants. In addition, major challenges and further developments toward elucidation of microbial sulfur metabolisms and their environmental applications are identified and discussed.

Abstract
Due to its enriched organic matter, nutrients and growth cofactors, as well as a diverse range of microorganisms, waste activated sludge (WAS) might be an ideal additive to stimulate organohalide respiration for in situ bioremediation of organohalide-contaminated sites. In this study, we investigated the biostimulation and bioaugmentation impacts of WAS-amendment on the performance and microbiome in tetrachloroethene (PCE) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) dechlorinating microcosms. Results demonstrated that WAS-amendment increased PCE- and PCBs-dechlorination rate as much as 6.06 and 10.67 folds, respectively. The presence of WAS provided a favorable growth niche for organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRB), including redox mediation and generation of electron donors and carbon sources. Particularly for the PCE dechlorination, indigenous Geobacter and WAS-derived Dehalococcoides were identified to play key roles in PCE-to-dichloroethene (DCE) and DCE-to-ethene dechlorination, respectively. Similar biostimulation and bioaugmentation effects of WAS-amendment were observed on both PCE- and PCBs-dechlorination in three different soils, i.e., laterite, brown loam and paddy soil. Risk assessment suggested low potential ecological risk of WAS amendment in remediation of organohalide-contaminated soil. Overall, this study provided an economic and efficient strategy to stimulate the organohalide respiration-based bioremediation in field applications.
