ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2024; 31:17426-17447.

Abstract
In this study, a new nanocomposite of hydroxyapatite (HA)/Mg-Al layered double hydroxide (LDH) was successfully formed via a facile co-precipitation method and applied to adsorb three anionic dyes of alizarin red S (ARS), Congo red (CR), and reactive red 120 (RR120) differing in the number of SO3- groups from aqueous solution. Based on a combination of characterization analysis and adsorption experiments, HA/Mg-Al LDH nanocomposite showed better adsorption performance than HA and Mg-Al LDH. Using XRD and TEM analyses, the crystallinity and the presence of nanoparticles were confirmed. According to the SEM investigation, the Mg-Al LDH layers in the nanocomposite structure were delaminated, while HA nanorods were formed at the surface of Mg-Al LDH nanoparticles. The higher BET surface area of the novel HA/Mg-Al LDH nanocomposite compared to HA and Mg-Al LDH provided its superior adsorption performance. Considering an effective amount of adsorbent dosage, pH 5 was selected as the optimum pH for each of the three dye solutions. According to the results from the study of contact time and initial concentration, the pseudo-second-order kinetic (R2 = 0.9987, 0.9951, and 0.9922) and Langmuir isotherm (R2 = 0.9873, 0.9956, and 0.9727) best fitted the data for ARS, CR, and RR120, respectively. Anionic dyes with different numbers of SO3- groups demonstrated distinct adsorption mechanisms for HA and Mg-Al LDH nanoparticles, indicating that the adsorption capacity is influenced by the number of SO3- groups, with HA/Mg-Al LDH nanocomposite offering superior performance toward dyes with higher numbers of SO3- groups. Furthermore, ΔH° less than 40 kJ/mol, positive ΔS°, and negative ΔG° accompanied by the mechanism clarifying show physical spontaneous adsorption without an external source of energy and increase the randomness of the process during the adsorption, respectively. Finally, the regeneration study demonstrated that the nanocomposite could be utilized for multiple adsorption-desorption cycles, proposing the HA/Mg-Al LDH as an economically and environmentally friendly adsorbent in the adsorption of anionic dyes in water treatment processes.

Improved application of immobilized Enterobacter cloacae into a bio-based polymer for Reactive Blue 19 removal, an eco-friendly advancement in potential decolorizing systems. WATER ENVIRONMENT RESEARCH : A RESEARCH PUBLICATION OF THE WATER ENVIRONMENT FEDERATION 2024; 96:e10968. [PMID: 38217325 DOI: 10.1002/wer.10968] [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: 09/13/2023] [Revised: 11/24/2023] [Accepted: 11/30/2023] [Indexed: 01/15/2024]
Abstract
The widespread use of highly complex synthetic dyes like reactive dyes in the textile industry has some adverse environmental impacts and deserves close attention. Biological treatment of these effluents utilizing various species of bacteria with remarkable efficiency in dye removal is still considered promising. Our current study deals with immobilizing an isolated bacterial strain into calcium alginate (Ca/Alg) gel beads and using it to treat pernicious pollutants like synthetic dyes. A potential Reactive Blue 19 (RB19)-degrading Enterobacter cloacae strain A1 was isolated from the Kashan textile industry and was characterized by 16S rDNA gene sequencing. The decolorization ability of strain A1 was assessed by time-based studies using free bacterial cells/immobilized in Ca/Alg. Based on the results of the 16S rDNA gene sequencing, it appears that strain A1 belonged to E. cloacae, with a 99.74% similarity. The findings suggest that immobilized strain A1 accomplished maximum decolorization activity compared with the free cells. The immobilized strain could utterly decompose and decolorize 0.05 mg/mL of RB19 within 48 h, while the free bacterial strain decolorized RB19 within 5 days. Moreover, Ca/Alg gel beads can maintain their efficiency for over three decolorization cycles. Further infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and gas chromatograph mass spectrometer (GC/MS) investigation declared complete RB19 decomposition on reaction products. Artemia salina was used to investigate the toxicity of dye and its degraded metabolites. The LC50 values signified the pure dye as very toxic with 0.01 mg/mL concentration, while after-treatment products showed no toxic effect on larvae. This immobilization technique increased the applicability of bacterial strain for dye removal. It was beneficial for the decolorization of RB19 from textile wastewater due to a remarkable reduction in time. Notably, strain A1-immobilized beads can maintain their activity for three consecutive decolorization cycles without a considerable decrease in efficiency. PRACTITIONER POINTS: The remarkable capacity of immobilized Enterobacter cloacae strain A1 for Reactive Blue 19 (RB19) removal Immobilized A1 strain showed two-fold higher removal than free one over 48 h A promising method for enhancing RB19 decolorization Decolorization was due to degradation based on UV-Vis, FTIR, and GC/MS analysis Non-toxic posttreatment products for Artemia.

Abstract
The efficiency of microbial populations in degrading refractory pollutants and the impact of adverse environmental factors often presents challenges for the biological treatment of azo dyes. In this study, the genome analysis and azo dye Reactive Black 5 (RB5) degrading capability of a newly isolated strain, Shewanella sp. SR1, were investigated. By analyzing the genome, functional genes involved in dye degradation and mechanisms for adaptation to low-temperature and high-salinity conditions were identified in SR1. The addition of co-substrates, such as glucose and yeast extract, significantly enhanced RB5 decolorization efficiency, reaching up to 87.6%. Notably, SR1 demonstrated remarkable robustness towards a wide range of NaCl concentrations (1-30 g/L) and temperatures (10-30 °C), maintaining efficient decolorization and high biomass concentration. The metabolic pathways of RB5 degradation were deduced based on the metabolites and genes detected in the genome, in which the azo bond was first cleaved by FMN-dependent NADH-azoreductase and NAD(P)H-flavin reductase, followed by deamination, desulfonation, and hydroxylation mediated by various oxidoreductases. Importantly, the degradation metabolites exhibited reduced toxicity, as revealed by toxicity analysis. These findings highlighted the great potential of Shewanella sp. SR1 for bioremediation of wastewaters contaminated with azo dyes.

Abstract
Selection of biocarrier type is an essential element for successful bacterial cells immobilization. The present investigation aimed to evaluate a novel application of Cress and Chia seeds as biocarriers for immobilization of mixed bacterial cells. Being an environmentally friendly, non-polluting, inexpensive, and non-toxic substances makes them promising biocarriers. On the other hand, there is an increasing concern about contamination by surfactants, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) is among the most commonly used surfactant. The Cress and Chia seeds were cross-linked with PVA to prepare two types of beads; CrE-PVA and ChE-PVA, respectively. The beads were utilized for the SDS biodegradation in four kinds of actual SDS-bearing wastewaters originated from; carwash garage (CWW), laundry facility (LWW), and household detergent industry (HWW), in addition to domestic wastewater (DWW). The results revealed that maximum efficiencies of SDS elimination in DWW, LWW, HWW, and CWW were 98.12, 94.32, 93.04, and 99.08%, respectively, using CrE-PVA and 99.04, 94.96, 94.71, and 99.27%, respectively using ChE-PVA. Finally, both types of beads were recycled for five times without losing their stability and efficiency for SDS biodegradation. Four kinetic models were adopted which were Blackman, Monod, Haldane, and Teissier. Results revealed that Teissier model well fitted the experimental data.

Abstract
Neonicotinoids are synthetic pesticides widely used for the control of various pests in agriculture throughout the world. They mainly attack the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, generate nervous stimulation, receptor clot, paralysis and finally cause death. They are low volatile, highly soluble and have a long half-life in soil and water. Due to their extensive use, the environmental residues have immensely increased in the last two decades and caused many hazardous effects on non-target organisms, including humans. Hence, for the protection of the environment and diversity of living organism's the degradation of neonicotinoids has received widespread attention. Compared to the other methods, biological methods are considered cost-effective, eco-friendly and most efficient. In particular, the use of microbial species makes the degradation of xenobiotics more accessible fast and active due to their smaller size. Since this degradation also converts xenobiotics into less toxic substances, the various metabolic pathways for the microbial degradation of neonicotinoids have been systematically discussed. Additionally, different enzymes, genes, plasmids and proteins are also investigated here. At last, this review highlights the implementation of innovative tools, databases, multi-omics strategies and immobilization techniques of microbial cells to detect and degrade neonicotinoids in the environment.

Abstract
In the last 3 years alone, over 10,000 publications have appeared on the topic of dye removal, including over 300 reviews. Thus, the topic is very relevant, although there are few articles on the practical applications on an industrial scale of the results obtained in research laboratories. Therefore, in this review, we focus on advanced oxidation methods integrated with biological methods, widely recognized as highly efficient treatments for recalcitrant wastewater, that have the best chance of industrial application. It is extremely important to know all the phenomena and mechanisms that occur during the process of removing dyestuffs and the products of their degradation from wastewater to prevent their penetration into drinking water sources. Therefore, particular attention is paid to understanding the mechanisms of both chemical and biological degradation of dyes, and the kinetics of these processes, which are important from a design point of view, as well as the performance and implementation of these operations on a larger scale.
