ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2024; 345:123496. [PMID: 38316253 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2024.123496] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2023] [Revised: 01/30/2024] [Accepted: 02/02/2024] [Indexed: 02/07/2024]
Abstract
Straw returning is a crucial agronomic practice in fields due to its various benefits. However, effects and mechanisms of straw with different fermentation degrees on Se and Cd bioavailability have not been sufficiently investigated. In this study, straw with different fermentation degrees were applied to a Cd-contaminated seleniferous soil to investigate their effects on Se and Cd bioavailability. Results revealed that the effects of straw application on Se/Cd bioavailability in soil depended on the fermentation degrees of straw. Both original and slightly fermented straw had pronounced impacts on microbial iron reduction compared to fully fermented straw, and thus led to a significant increase in Se and Cd bioavailability. The linear discriminant analysis effect size (LEfSe) showed that norank_f_Symbiobacteraceae, Micromonospora, WCHB1-32, Ruminiclostrdium, and Cellulomonas were the major biomarkers at genus level in straw application soils, additional network analysis and random forest analysis suggested that Ruminiclostrdium and Cellulomonas might be implicated in microbial iron reduction. Furthermore, the microbial iron reduction had negative effects on mineral-associated Se with coefficient of -0.81 and positive effects on mineral-associated Cd with coefficient of 0.72, while Mn fractions exhibited positive effects on mineral-associated Se with a coefficient of 0.53 and negative effects on mineral-associated Cd. In conclusion, straw with different fermentation degrees governed Se and Cd mobility by regulating abundance of Ruminiclostrdium and Cellulomonas, subsequently affecting Fe and Mn fractions and consequently influencing Se and Cd bioavailability.

[PMID: 38171403 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.141099] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2023] [Revised: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 12/30/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024]
Abstract
The Cr(VI) bioreduction has attracted widespread attention in the field of Cr(VI) pollution remediation due to its environmental friendliness. Further in-depth research on the reduction mechanisms is necessary to enhance the efficiency of Cr(VI) bioreduction. However, the limited research on Cr(VI) bioreduction mechanisms remains a bottleneck for the practical application of Cr(VI) reduction. In this study, The Cr(VI) reduction of strain LQ25 was significantly improved when Fe(III) was used as an electron acceptor, which increased by 1.6-fold maximum within the set Cr(VI) concentration range. Based on this, the electron transfer process of Cr(VI) reduction was analyzed using strain LQ25. Based on genomic data, flavin proteins were found to interact closely with electron transfer-related proteins using protein-protein interaction (PPi) analysis. Transcriptome analysis revealed that flavin synthesis genes (ribE, ribBA, and ribH) and electron transfer flavoprotein genes (fixA, etfA, fixB, and etfB) were significantly upregulated when Fe(III) was used as the electron acceptor. These results indicate that the fermentative dissimilatory Fe(III)-reducing bacterial strain LQ25 mainly uses flavin as an electron shuttle for electron transfer, which differs from the common use of cytochrome c in respiratory bacteria. These findings on the mechanism of Cr(VI) bioreduction provide technical support for improving the efficiency of Cr(VI) reduction which promote the practical application of Cr(VI) bioreduction in the field of Cr(VI) pollution remediation.

Abstract
Hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) is recognized to be carcinogenic and toxic and registered as a contaminant in many drinking water regulations. It occurs naturally and is also produced by industrial processes. The reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) has been a central topic for chromium remediation since Cr(III) is less toxic and less mobile. In this study, fermentative Fe(III)-reducing bacterial strains (Cellu-2a, Cellu-5a, and Cellu-5b) were isolated from a groundwater sample and were phylogenetically related to species of Cellulomonas by 16S rRNA gene analysis. One selected strain, Cellu-2a showed its capacity of reduction of both soluble iron (ferric citrate) and solid iron (hydrous ferric oxide, HFO), as well as aqueous Cr(VI). The strain Cellu-2a was able to reduce 15 μM Cr(VI) directly with glucose or sucrose as a sole carbon source under the anaerobic condition and indirectly with one of the substrates and HFO in the same incubations. The heterogeneous reduction of Cr(VI) by the surface-associated reduced iron from HFO by Cellu-2a likely assisted the Cr(VI) reduction. Fermentative features such as large-scale cell growth may impose advantages on the application of bacterial Cr(VI) reduction over anaerobic respiratory reduction.

Abstract
In this paper, we found a bacteria (Bacillus wiedmannii MSM) that could not only culture quickly under aerobic condition, but also can biological reduction of Pd (II) under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. For reducing Pd (II) by Bacillus wiedmannii MSM, the best electron donor was sodium formate and the best growth time was 24 h (mid-log growth phase cells). TEM indicated that a lot of palladium nanoparticles (Pd-NPs) were mainly located in the periplasmic space of the live cells. However, the autoclaved cells could not synthesize Pd-NPs, which proved the role of enzyme in the reduction of Pd (II). A few of Pd-NPs were only formed on the surface of Cu2+-treated cells, which proved the main but not the only role of periplasmic hydrogenase in the reduction of Pd (II). XRD and XPS also proved that Pd-NPs could be synthesized by live cells over broad ranges of temperature (20-40 °C) and pH (pH 3.0-7.0). This may be especially useful for in situ reduction and remediation of Pd (II) for both anaerobic and aerobic wastewater.

Abstract
At the Hanford Site in southeastern Washington, discharge of radionuclide laden liquid wastes resulted in vadose zone contamination, providing a continuous source of these contaminants to groundwater. The presence of multiple contaminants (i.e., 99Tc and 129I) increases the complexity of finding viable remediation technologies to sequester contaminants in situ and protect groundwater. Although previous studies have shown the efficiency of zero valent iron (ZVI) and sulfur modified iron (SMI) in reducing mobile Tc(VII) to immobile Tc(IV) and iodate incorporation into calcite, the coupled effects from simultaneously using these remedial technologies have not been previously studied. In this first-of-a-kind laboratory study, we used reductants (ZVI or SMI) and calcite-forming solutions to simultaneously remove aqueous Tc(VII) and iodate via reduction and incorporation, respectively. The results confirmed that Tc(VII) was rapidly removed from the aqueous phase via reduction to Tc(IV). Most of the aqueous iodate was transformed to iodide faster than incorporation into calcite occurred, and therefore the I remained in the aqueous phase. These results suggested that this remedial pathway is not efficient in immobilizing iodate when reductants are present. Other experiments suggested that iodate removal via calcite precipitation should occur prior to adding reductants for Tc(VII) removal. When microbes were included in the tests, there was no negative impact on the microbial population but changes in the makeup of the microbial community were observed. These microbial community changes may have an impact on remediation efforts in the long-term that could not be seen in a short-term study. The results underscore the importance of identifying interactions between natural attenuation pathways and remediation technologies that only target individual contaminants.

Abstract
Understanding the factors that influence pollutant transformation in the presence of ferric (oxyhydr)oxides is crucial to the efficient application of different remediation strategies. In this study we determined the effect of goethite, hematite, magnetite and ferrihydrite on the transformation of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) by Yarrowia lipolytica AN-L15. The presence of ferric (oxyhydr)oxides led to a small decrease in the rate of TNT removal. In all cases, a significant release of NO2− from TNT and further NO2− oxidation to NO3− was observed. A fraction of the released NO2− was abiotically decomposed to NO and NO2, and then NO was likely oxidized abiotically to NO2 by O2. ESR analysis revealed the generation of superoxide in the culture medium; its further protonation at low pH resulted in the formation of hydroperoxyl radical. Presumably, a fraction of NO released during TNT degradation reacted with superoxide and formed peroxynitrite, which was further rearranged to NO3− at the acidic pH values observed in this study. A transformation and reduction of ferric (oxyhydr)oxides followed by partial dissolution (in the range of 7–86% of the initial Fe(III)) were observed in the presence of cells and TNT. Mössbauer spectroscopy showed some minor changes for goethite, magnetite and ferrihydrite samples during their incubation with Y. lipolytica and TNT. This study shows that i) reactive oxygen and nitrogen species generated during TNT transformation by Y. lipolytica participate in the abiotic conversion of TNT and ii) the presence of iron(III) minerals leads to a minor decrease in TNT transformation.

Abstract
A facultative iron-reducing [Fe(III)-reducing] Paenibacillus sp. strain was isolated from Hanford 300A subsurface sediment biofilms that was capable of reducing soluble Fe(III) complexes [Fe(III)-nitrilotriacetic acid and Fe(III)-citrate] but unable to reduce poorly crystalline ferrihydrite (Fh). However, Paenibacillus sp. 300A was capable of reducing Fh in the presence of low concentrations (2 μM) of either of the electron transfer mediators (ETMs) flavin mononucleotide (FMN) or anthraquinone-2,6-disulfonate (AQDS). Maximum initial Fh reduction rates were observed at catalytic concentrations (<10 μM) of either FMN or AQDS. Higher FMN concentrations inhibited Fh reduction, while increased AQDS concentrations did not. We also found that Paenibacillus sp. 300A could reduce Fh in the presence of natural ETMs from Hanford 300A subsurface sediments. In the absence of ETMs, Paenibacillus sp. 300A was capable of immobilizing U(VI) through both reduction and adsorption. The relative contributions of adsorption and microbial reduction to U(VI) removal from the aqueous phase were ∼7:3 in PIPES [piperazine-N,N'-bis(2-ethanesulfonic acid)] and ∼1:4 in bicarbonate buffer. Our study demonstrated that Paenibacillus sp. 300A catalyzes Fe(III) reduction and U(VI) immobilization and that these reactions benefit from externally added or naturally existing ETMs in 300A subsurface sediments.
