THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 905:167141. [PMID: 37739072 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.167141] [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: 05/08/2023] [Revised: 09/14/2023] [Accepted: 09/14/2023] [Indexed: 09/24/2023]
Abstract
Microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) is a promising in-situ strategy for chlorinated organic compound (COC) pollution remediation due to its high efficiency, low energy input, and long-term potential. Reductive dechlorination as the most critical step in COC degradation which takes place primarily in the cathode chamber of MECs is a complex biochemical process driven by the behavior of electrons. However, no information is currently available on the internal mechanism of MEC in dechlorination from the perspective of the whole electron transfer procedure and its dependent electrode materials. This review addresses the underlying mechanism of MEC on the fundamental of the generation (electron donor), transmission (transfer pathway), utilization (functional microbiota) and reception (electron acceptor) of electrons in dechlorination. In addition, the vital role of varied cathode materials involved in the entire electron transfer procedure during COC dechlorination is emphasized. Subsequently, suggestions for future research, including model construction, cathode material modification, and expanding the applicability of MECs to removal gaseous COCs have been proposed. This paper enriches the mechanism of COC degradation by MEC, and thus provides the theoretical support for the scale-up bioreactors for efficient COC removal.

WATER RESEARCH 2023; 230:119529. [PMID: 36580804 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2022.119529] [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: 08/14/2022] [Revised: 11/19/2022] [Accepted: 12/22/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Bioelectrochemical system (BES) can effectively promote the reductive dechlorination of chlorophenols (CPs). However, the complete degradation of CPs with sequential dechlorination and mineralization processes has rarely achieved from the BES. Here, a dual-working electrode BES was constructed and applied for the complete degradation of pentachlorophenol (PCP). Combined with DNA-stable isotope probing (DNA-SIP), the biofilms attached on the anodic and cathodic electrode in the BES were analyzed to explore the dechlorinating and mineralizing microorganisms. Results showed that PCP removal efficiency in the dual-working BES (84% for 21 days) was 4.1 and 4.7 times higher than those of conventional BESs with a single anodic or cathodic working electrode, respectively. Based on DNA-SIP and high-throughput sequencing analysis, the cathodic working electrode harbored the potential dechlorinators (Comamonas, Pseudomonas, Methylobacillus, and Dechlorosoma), and the anodic working enriched the potential intermediate mineralizing bacteria (Comamonas, Stenotrophomonas, and Geobacter), indicating that PCP could be completely degraded under the synergetic effect of these functional microorganisms. Besides, the potential autotrophic functional bacteria that might be involved in the PCP dechlorination were also identified by SIP labeled with 13C-NaHCO3. Our results proved that the dual-working BES could accelerate the complete degradation of PCP and enrich separately the functional microbial consortium for the PCP dechlorination and mineralization, which has broad potential for bioelectrochemical techniques in the treatment of wastewater contaminated with CPs or other halogenated organic compounds.

Enhanced photodegradation of antibiotics based on anoxygenic photosynthetic bacteria and bacterial metabolites: A sustainably green strategy for the removal of high-risk organics from secondary effluent.

Abstract
Antibiotic residues in effluents discharged from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) have been considered high-risk organics due to biorefractory property and potential toxicity. Secondary pollution and unsustainability existed in advanced treatment of secondary effluent are currently in urgent need of improvement. In this study, a sustainably green strategy based on Rhodopseudomonas palustris (R.palustris) by regulating the structure of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) was proposed for the first time to achieve efficiently removal of sulfadiazine (SDZ). Results showed that 0.2 V was the optimal external potential for R.palustris to efficiently remove SDZ, where the biodegradation rate constant obtained at this potential was 4.87-folds higher than that in open-circuit mode and a complete removal was achieved within 58 h in the presence of EPS extracted at this potential. Three-dimensional excitation-emission matrix (3D-EEM) spectra analysis suggested that tryptophan protein-like, tyrosine protein-like, humic acid-like and fulvic acid-like substances present in EPS were the main effective components which was responsible for the indirect photodegradation of SDZ. The quenching experiments showed that 3EPS* was the dominant reactive species which accounted for 90% of SDZ removal. This study provides new implications for the advanced treatment of secondary effluent organic matters by developing eco-friendly bioaugmentation technology and biomaterials.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 424:127538.

Abstract
It is of great interest to explore physiological metabolism of electrochemically active bacteria (EAB) for combined organics and heavy metals in single-chamber microbial electrolysis cells (MECs). Four pure culture EAB varying degrees responded to the combined acetate (1.0-5.0 g/L) and Cd(II) (20-150 mg/L) at different initial concentrations in the single-chamber MECs, shown as significant relevance of Cd(II) removal (2.57-7.35 mg/L/h) and H2 production (0-0.0011 m3/m3/h) instead of acetate removal (73-130 mg/L/h), to these EAB species at initial Cd(II) below 120 mg/L and initial acetate below 3.0 g/L. A high initial acetate (5.0 g/L) compensated the Cd(II) inhibition and broadened the removal of Cd(II) to 150 mg/L. These EAB physiologically released variable amounts of extracellular polymeric substances with a compositional diversity in response to the changes of initial Cd(II) and circuital current whereas the activities of typical intracellular enzymes were more apparently altered by the initial Cd(II) than the circuital current. These results provide experimental validation of the presence, the metabolic plasticity and the physiological response of these EAB directed by the changes of initial Cd(II) and acetate concentrations in the single-chamber MECs, deepening our understanding of EAB physiological coping strategies in metallurgical microbial electro-ecological cycles.

Abstract
Halogenated organic compounds are persistent pollutants, whose persistent contamination and rapid spread seriously threaten human health and the safety of ecosystems. It is difficult to remove them completely by traditional physicochemical techniques. In-situ remediation utilizing bioelectrochemical technology represents a promising strategy for degradation of halogenated organic compounds, which can be achieved through potential modulation. In this review, we summarize the reactor configuration of microbial electrochemical dehalogenation systems and relevant organohalide-respiring bacteria. We also highlight the mechanisms of electrode potential regulation of microbial dehalogenation and the role of extracellular electron transfer in dehalogenation process, and further discuss the application of bioelectrochemical technology in bioremediation of halogenated organic compounds. Therefore, this review summarizes the status of research on microbial electrochemical dehalogenation systems from macroscopic to microscopic levels, providing theoretical support for the development of rapid and efficient in situ bioremediation technologies for halogenated organic compounds contaminated sites, as well as insights for the removal of refractory fluorides.

Abstract
A sequential cathode-anode cascade mode bioelectrochemical system (BES) was designed and developed to achieve the "self-degradation" of 2-chlorophenol (2-CP). With the cooperation of cathode and anode, the electrons supplied for the cathode 2-CP dechlorination come from its own dechlorinated product in the anode, phenol. Separate degradation experiments of cathode 2-CP and anode phenol were firstly conducted. The optimum concentration ratio of anode acetate to phenolic compound (3.66/1.56) and the phenolic compound degradation ability of BES were investigated. With the formation of the bioanode able to degrade phenol, the sequential cathode-anode cascade mode BES was further developed, where 2-CP could achieve sequential dechlorination and ring-cleavage degradation. When applied voltage was 0.6 V and cathode influent pH was 7, 1.56 mM 2-CP reached 80.15% cathode dechlorination efficiency and 58.91% total cathode-anode phenolic compounds degradation efficiency. The bioanodes played a decisive role in BES. Different operating conditions would affect the overall performance of BES by changing the electrochemical activity and microbial community structure of the bioanodes. This study demonstrated the feasibility of the sequential cathode-anode cascade mode BES to degrade 2-CP wastewater and provided perspectives for the cooperation of cathode and anode, aiming to explore more potential of BES in wastewater treatment field.

Abstract
Biodegradation mechanisms and microbial functional diversity during coupled p-nitrophenol (PNP) and p-aminophenol (PAP) degradation were studied in a bioelectrochemical system. PNP in the biocathode and PAP in the bioanode were almost completely removed within 28hr and 68hr respectively. The degradation followed the steps including hydrating hydroxyalkylation, dehydrogenating carbonylation, and hydrolating ring cleavage, etc. Metagemomic analysis based on the KEGG and eggNOG database annotations revealed the microbial composition and functional genes/enzymes related to phenol degradation in the system. The predominant bacteria genera were Lautropia, Pandoraea, Thiobacillus, Ignavibacterium, Truepera and Hyphomicrobium. The recognized biodegradation genes/enzymes related to pollutant degradation were as follows: pmo, hbd, & ppo for phenol degradation, nzba, amie, & badh for aromatic degradation, and CYP & p450 for xenobiotics degradation, etc. The co-occurrence of ARGs (antibiotic resistant genes), such as adeF, MexJ, ErmF, PDC-93 and Escherichia_coli_mdfA, etc., were annotated in CARD database during the biodegradation process. The Proteobacteria & Actinobacteria phylum was the primary host of both the biodegradation genes & ARGs in this system. The microbial functional diversity ensured the effective biodegradation of the phenol pollutants in the bioelectrochemical system.

Abstract
Mixotrophic bacteria provide a desirable alternative to the use of classical heterotrophic or chemolithoautotrophic bacteria in environmental technology, particularly under limiting nutrients conditions. Their bi-modal ability of adapting to inorganic or organic carbon feed and sulfur, nitrogen, or even heavy metal stress conditions are attractive features to achieve efficient bacterial activity and favorable operation conditions for the environmental detoxification or remediation of contaminated waste and wastewater. This review provides an overview on the state of the art and summarizes the metabolic traits of the most promising and emerging non-model mixotrophic bacteria for the environmental detoxification of contaminated wastewater and waste containing excess amounts of limiting nutrients. Although mixotrophic bacteria usually function with low organic carbon sources, the unusual capabilities of mixotrophic electroactive exoelectrogens and electrotrophs in bioelectrochemical systems and in microbial electrosynthesis for accelerating simultaneous metabolism of inorganic or organic C and N, S or heavy metals are reviewed. The identification of the mixotrophic properties of electroactive bacteria and their capability to drive mono- or bidirectional electron transfer processes are highly exciting and promising aspects. These aspects provide an appealing potential for unearthing new mixotrophic exoelectrogens and electrotrophs, and thus inspire the next generation of microbial electrochemical technology and mixotrophic bacterial metabolic engineering. KEY POINTS: • Mixotrophic bacteria efficiently and simultaneously remove C and N, S or heavy metals. • Exoelectrogens and electrotrophs accelerate metabolism of C and N, S or heavy metals. • New mixotrophic exoelectrogens and electrotrophs should be discovered and exploited.

Abstract
Chlorophenols (CPs) are highly toxic and refractory contaminants which widely exist in various environments and cause serious harm to human and environment health and safety. This review provides comprehensive information on typical CPs biodegradation technologies, the most green and benign ones for CPs removal. The known aerobic and anaerobic degradative bacteria, functional enzymes, and metabolic pathways of CPs as well as several improving methods and critical parameters affecting the overall degradation efficiency are systematically summarized and clarified. The challenges for CPs mineralization are also discussed, mainly including the dechlorination of polychlorophenols (poly-CPs) under aerobic condition and the ring-cleavage of monochlorophenols (MCPs) under anaerobic condition. The coupling of functional materials and degraders as well as the operation of sequential anaerobic-aerobic bioreactors and bioelectrochemical system (BES) are promising strategies to overcome some current limitations. Future perspective and research gaps in this field are also proposed, including the further understanding of microbial information and the specific role of materials in CPs biodegradation, the potential application of innovative biotechnologies and new operating modes to optimize and maximize the function of the system, and the scale-up of bioreactors towards the efficient biodegradation of CPs.

Abstract
The effects of Rhodopseudomonas capsulata (R. capsulata) in the treated effluent of soybean processing wastewater (SPW) on the remediation of imidacloprid in soil, soil fertility, and the microbial community structure in soil were studied. Compared with the control group, with the addition of effluent containing R. capsulata, imidacloprid was effectively removed, soil fertility was enhanced, and the microbial community structure was improved. Molecular analysis indicated that imidacloprid could exert induction effects on expression of cpm gene and regulation effects on the synthesis of cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450) by activating HKs gene in two-component system (TCS). For R. capsulata, this induction process required 1 day. The synthesis of P450 occurred 1 day after inoculation, because R. capsulata are a type of archaea and imidacloprid is an environmental stress. Before expression of the cpm gene and synthesis of P450, R. capsulata need a period of time to adapt to external imidacloprid stimulation. However, the lack of organic matter in the soil cannot sustain R. capsulata growth for more than 1 day. In four groups with added effluent, the remaining organic matter in the effluent provided a sufficient carbon source and energy for R. capsulata. Five days later, the microbial community structure was improved by R. capsulata in the soil. The new technique could be used to remediate imidacloprid, enhance soil fertility, treat SPW and realize the recycling and reuse of wastewater and R. capsulata cells.

[PMID: 32768818 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2020.122892] [Citation(s) in RCA: 39] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2020] [Revised: 04/19/2020] [Accepted: 05/05/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
Monoaromatic compounds (MACs) are typical refractory organic pollutants which are existing widely in various environments. Biodegradation strategies are benign while the key issue is the sustainable supply of electron acceptors/donors. Bioelectrochemical system (BES) shows great potential in this field for providing continuous electrons for MACs degradation. Phenol and BTEX (Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene and Xylenes) can utilize anode to enhance oxidative degradation, while chlorophenols, nitrobenzene and antibiotic chloramphenicol (CAP) can be efficiently reduced to less-toxic products by the cathode. However, there still have several aspects need to be improved including the scale, electricity output and MACs degradation efficiency of BES. This review provides a comprehensive summary on the BES degradation of MACs, and discusses the advantages, future challenges and perspectives for BES development. Instead of traditional expensive dual-chamber configurations for MACs degradation, new single-chamber membrane-less reactors are cost-effective and the hydrogen generated from cathodes may promote the anode degradation. Electrode materials are the key to improve BES performance, approaches to increase the biofilm enrichment and conductivity of materials have been discussed, including surface modification as well as composition of carbon and metal-based materials. Besides, the development and introduction of functional microbes and redox mediators, participation of sulfur/hydrogen cycling may further enhance the BES versatility. Some critical parameters, such as the applied voltage and conductivity, can also affect the BES performance, which shouldn't be overlooked. Moreover, sequential cathode-anode cascaded mode is a promising strategy for MACs complete mineralization.

Abstract
The soybean processing wastewater (SPW) supplementation to facilitate the simultaneously treatment (SPW and mesosulfuron-methyl) of wastewater and production of biological substances by Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides (R. sphaeroides) was discussed. Compared with the control group, with the addition of SPW, mesosulfuron-methyl was removed, and the yields of single-cell proteins, carotenoids, and bacteriochlorophyll were increased. In the 3 mg/L dose group, the mesosulfuron-methyl removal rate reached 97% after 5 days. Molecular analysis revealed that mesosulfuron-methyl exhibited induction effects on expression of the cpm gene and regulation effects on the synthesis of cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450) by activating HKs gene in TCS signal transduction pathway. For R. sphaeroides, this induction process required 1 day. The synthesis of P450 occurred 1 day after inoculation. Prior to expressing cpm gene and synthesizing P450, R. sphaeroides need a period of time to adapt to external mesosulfuron-methyl stimulation. However, the R. sphaeroides growth could not be maintained for more than 1 day due to the lack of organic matter in the raw wastewater. The SPW supplementation provided a sufficient carbon source in four groups with added SPW. After 5 days, R. sphaeroides became the dominant microflora in the wastewater. This new method could complete the treatment of mixed wastewater, the increased of biological substances output and the reuse of wastewater and R. sphaeroides cells as resources at the same time.

Abstract
On account of the recalcitrant and highly toxicity of organonitrile substrates, traditional processes are limited by HCN poisoning thus inefficient. This article proposed a novel anaerobic fluidized bed reactor with electric field activation (AFBR-EFA) which had a 260-day continuous operation. The operation aims to explore the practicability of the enhanced reduction of isophthalonitrile (IPN), with emphasis on the optimum operation parameters and synergistic effect between electric field and anaerobic processes. The results showed that relatively higher voltage (1.0 V < V < 1.6 V) had a positive impact on reduction enhancement. High removal could be obtained at high initial concentration, low methanol dosage and short HRT which indicated that tolerance to shock loading was significantly enhanced in AFBR-EFA. Furthermore, EFA visibly motivated the enrichment of electrochemically active bacteria and various autotrophic IPN degradation-related species. The significantly efficient performance makes the potential for full-scale application of the AFBR-EFA markedly improved, particularly for treating hard-biodegraded contaminants.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2020; 389:121917.

Abstract
A single-chamber bio-photoelectrochemical system (BPES) constructed with BiVO4/reduced graphene oxide (RGO) photocathode was proposed for 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) degradation under simulated solar irradiation. The BiVO4/RGO (B/G) composites were synthesized, optimized and characterized by various techniques to analyze their physico-chemical and photocatalytic properties. Results showed that B/G (5 wt% - 9 h - 150 °C) exhibited the best photocatalytic activity for 2,4-DCP degradation, which was 1.5 times of that of BiVO4, due to its better light absorption, faster electrons transfer, and more efficient photo-generated e- - h+ separation. Reactive species trapping experiments revealed that ·OH was the main radical leading to 2,4-DCP degradation, and h+ also influenced 2,4-DCP removal. The 2,4-DCP (20 mg/L) removal rate and current output from the illuminated BPES were much higher than those of the unilluminated reactor (68.5 % vs. 41.8 %, 60.31 A/m3 vs. 40.07 A/m3) in 24 h, and the cathode potential was more negative, indicating that photocathode catalytic process was favorable to pollutants degradation and energy generation. Intermediates of 2,4-DCP degradation in the BPES were identified, and accordingly, possible degradation pathway and mechanism were proposed. This research advanced the development of efficient photocathode and mechanism of recalcitrant wastewater treatment in the BPES.

Abstract
In this study, the effects of Rhodopseudomonas capsulata present in wastewater effluent on the biodegradation of carbaryl in soil and improvement of soil fertility were investigated. Compared to control treatment, carbaryl was removed efficiently and soil fertility was remediated with the addition of effluent containing R. capsulata. Molecular analysis revealed that carbaryl induced carbaryl hydrolase gene expression to synthesize carbaryl hydrolase through activating MAPKKKs, MAPKKs, MAPKs genes in MAPK signal transduction pathway. The induction and secretion of carbaryl hydrolase occur after one day in R. capsulata, which can be attributed to its characteristics as an ancient bacteria, which require acclimatization to carbaryl before gene induction. However, lack of organics in soil and control treatment could not maintain R. capsulata growth for over one day. The residual organics in the effluent provided sufficient carbon source and energy for R. capsulata under four effluent treatments. This new method resulted in the remediation of carbaryl pollution and improvement of soil fertility and soybean processing wastewater treatment simultaneously, as well as the reutilization of wastewater and R. capsulata as sludge. Meanwhile, the high-order non-linear mathematical model about carbaryl removal rate was established.

Abstract
The biorestoration of cyhalofop-butyl and fertility in soil using Rhodopseudanonas palustris (R. palustris) in the treated wastewater were investigated in this research. Cyhalofop-butyl was not degraded under control group. The treated wastewater containing R. palustris degraded cyhalofop-butyl and remediated fertility. Interestingly, the cyhalofop-butyl-hydrolyzing carboxylesterase gene was expressed after inoculation 24 h. Subsequently, the cyhalofop-butyl-hydrolyzing carboxylesterase were synthesized to degrade cyhalofop-butyl. The cyhalofop-butyl started to be degraded after inoculation 24 h. The cyhalofop-butyl as stimulus signal induced cyhalofop-butyl-hydrolyzing carboxylesterase gene expression through signal transduction pathway. This process took 24 h for R. palustris as they were ancient bacteria. The residual organics in the wastewater provided sufficient carbon sources and energy for R. palustris under three dosage groups. The new method completed the remediation of cyhalofop-butyl pollution, the improvement of soil fertility and soybean processing wastewater treatment simultaneously, and realized the resource reutilization of wastewater and R. palustris as sludge.

Abstract
Simultaneous (SPW and propyzamide) wastewater treatment and the production of biochemicals by Rhodopseudomonas capsulata (R. capsulata) were investigated with supplement of soybean processing wastewater (SPW). Compared to control group, propyzamide was removed and biochemicals production were enhanced with the supplement of SPW. Propyzamide induced camH gene expression through activating MAPKKKs gene in MAPK signal transduction pathway. The induction of camH gene and CamH occurs after 1 day for R. capsulata. However, lack of organics in original wastewater did not maintain R. capsulata growth for over 1 day. The supplement of SPW provided sufficient carbon source for R. capsulata under three addition dosages. This new method resulted in the mixed (SPW and propyzamide) wastewater treatment and improvement of biochemicals simultaneously, as well as the realization of reutilization of wastewater and R. capsulata as sludge. Meanwhile, high-order nonlinear mathematical model of the relationship between propyzamide removal rate, Xt and Xt/r, was established.

Abstract
Simultaneous (SPW and cyhalofop-butyl) wastewater treatment and the production of biochemicals by Rhodopseudomonas palustris (R. palustris) was investigated with supplementation of soybean processing wastewater (SPW). Compared to control group, cyhalofop-butyl was removed and single cell protein, carotenoid, bacteriochlorophyll productions were enhanced with the supplementation of SPW. Cyhalofop-butyl removal reached 100% after 5 days under 4000 mg/L COD group. Cyhalofop-butyl induced chbH gene expression to synthesize cyhalofop-butyl-hydrolyzing carboxylesterase through activating MAPKKKs, MAPKKs, MAPKs genes in MAPK signal transduction pathway. The induction process took one day for R. palustris. However, lack of organics in original wastewater did not maintain R. palustris growth for over one day. The supplementation of SPW provided sufficient carbon source. This new method resulted in the mixed wastewater treatment and improvement of biochemicals simultaneously, as well as the realization of reutilization of R. palustris. High-order non-linear mathematical model of the relationship between Rchb, Xc, and Xt was established.

Abstract
Chlorella vulgaris was cultivated in the gradually increased proportion of toxic sludge extracts for acclimation, which was obtained from SBR treated synthetic wastewater containing mixed chlorophenols (2,4,6-trichlorophenol and 4-chlorophenol). The growth of C. vulgaris was obviously improved after acclimation with the cell number in the 100% sludge group was 22.75±0.85∗106cellmL-1, which was relatively more than the BG11 control group's (20.80±0.35∗106cellmL-1) and apparently over the 100% sludge group (10.78±0.45∗106cellmL-1). Compared with the sludge control sludge group, C. vulgaris in the acclimation group gained 24.1% and 18.2% more relative removal rate about TOC and ecotoxicity, respectively. Proteomics analysis showed that protein spots were more clear and centralized and the clarifications of the different protein spots narrowed from 8 to 5 after acclimation. Proteins related to oxidoreducase activity and energy metabolism were over expressed and C. vulgaris could select the metabolic pathways, especially enhanced pyruvate fermentation, TCA cycle, and glycolysis after acclimation, by over accumulating the corresponding vital enzymes. Conclusively, acclimation was a good method to improve the removal ability and growth of C. vulgaris and algae could acclimatize itself to grow upon the toxic sludge extracts by metabolic selection. We suppose acclimation process was a potential method for algae wastewater treatment and algae cultivation without or reduce dilution.

Abstract
Applying an electric field to stimulate the microbial reductive dechlorination of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) represents a promising approach for bioremediation of PCB-contaminated sites. This study aimed to demonstrate the biocathodic film-facilitated reduction of PCB 61 in a sediment-based bioelectrochemical reactor (BER) and, more importantly, the characterizations of electrode-microbe interaction from microbial and electrochemical perspectives particularly in a time-dependent manner. The application of a cathodic potential (-0.45 V vs. SHE) significantly improved the rate and extent of PCB 61 dechlorination compared to the open-circuit scenario (without electrical stimulation), and the addition of an external surfactant further increased the dechlorination, with Tween 80 exerting more pronounced effects than rhamnolipid. The bacterial composition of the biofilms and the bioelectrochemical kinetics of the BERs were found to be time-dependent and to vary considerably with the incubation time and slightly with the coexistence of an external surfactant. Excellent correlations were observed between the dechlorination rate and the relative abundance of Dehalogenimonas, Dechloromonas, and Geobacter, the dechlorination rate and the cathodic current density recorded from the chronoamperometry tests, and the dechlorination rate and the charge transfer resistance derived from the electrochemical impedance tests, with respect to the 120 day-operation. After day 120, PCB 61 was resistant to further appreciable reduction, but substantial hydrogen production was detected, and the bacterial community and electrochemical parameters observed on day 180 were not distinctly different from those on day 120.

Abstract
In this study, copper removal and electricity generation were investigated in a single-chamber microbial fuel cell (MFC). Result showed that copper was efficiently removed in the membrane-less MFC with removal efficiency of 98.3% at the tolerable Cu2+ concentration of 12.5 mg L-1, the corresponding open circuit voltage and maximum power density were 0.78 V and 10.2 W m-3, respectively. The mechanism analysis demonstrated that microbial electrochemical reduction contributed to the copper removal with the products of Cu and Cu2O deposited at biocathode. Moreover, the microbial community analysis indicated that microbial communities changed with different copper concentrations. The dominant phyla were Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes which could play key roles in electricity generation, while Actinobacteria and Acidobacteria were also observed which were responsible for Cu-resistant and copper removal. It will be of important guiding significance for the recovery of copper from low concentration wastewater through single-chamber MFC with simultaneous energy recovery.

Abstract
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are hardly biodegradable carcinogenic organic compounds. Bioremediation is a commonly used method for treating PAH contaminated environments such as soils, sediment, water bodies and wastewater. However, bioremediation has various drawbacks including the low abundance, diversity and activity of indigenous hydrocarbon degrading bacteria, their slow growth rates and especially a limited bioavailability of PAHs in the aqueous phase. Addition of nutrients, electron acceptors or co-substrates to enhance indigenous microbial activity is costly and added chemicals often diffuse away from the target compound, thus pointing out an impasse for the bioremediation of PAHs. A promising solution is the adoption of bioelectrochemical systems. They guarantee a permanent electron supply and withdrawal for microorganisms, thereby circumventing the traditional shortcomings of bioremediation. These systems combine biological treatment with electrochemical oxidation/reduction by supplying an anode and a cathode that serve as an electron exchange facility for the biocatalyst. Here, recent achievements in polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon removal using bioelectrochemical systems have been reviewed. This also concerns PAH precursors: total petroleum hydrocarbons and diesel. Removal performances of PAH biodegradation in bioelectrochemical systems are discussed, focussing on configurational parameters such as anode and cathode designs as well as environmental parameters like porosity, salinity, adsorption and conductivity of soil and sediment that affect PAH biodegradation in BESs. The still scarcely available information on microbiological aspects of bioelectrochemical PAH removal is summarised here. This comprehensive review offers a better understanding of the parameters that affect the removal of PAHs within bioelectrochemical systems. In addition, future experimental setups are proposed in order to study syntrophic relationships between PAH degraders and exoelectrogens. This synopsis can help as guide for researchers in their choices for future experimental designs aiming at increasing the power densities and PAH biodegradation rates using microbial bioelectrochemistry.

Abstract
The relationship between microbial diversity and sludge toxicity in the biotreatment of refractory wastewater was investigated. Synthetic wastewater containing 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) was treated by an activated sludge using a sequencing batch bioreactor (SBR). At the end of a single SBR cycle, a stable operation stage was reached when the 4-CP was not detected both in aqueous and sludge phases and the effluent COD was maintained at approximately 70 mg L(-1) for the blank and control sludge groups. Then, the diversity of the microorganisms and the sludge toxicity were measured. The results showed that the Microtox acute toxicity of the control sludge was higher than those of the blank sludge. The difference analysis of the microbial diversity between the blank and control sludge indicated that the sludge toxicity was closely related to microbial diversity.

Abstract
A novel process coupling photosynthetic bacteria (PSB) with electrodeionization (EDI) treatment was proposed to treat high ammonia wastewater and recover bio-resources and nitrogen. The first stage (PSB treatment) was used to degrade organic pollutants and accumulate biomass, while the second stage (EDI) was for nitrogen removal and recovery. The first stage was the focus in this study. The results showed that using PSB to transform organic pollutants in wastewater into biomass was practical. PSB could acclimatize to wastewater with a chemical oxygen demand (COD) of 2,300 mg/L and an ammonia nitrogen (NH4(+)-N) concentration of 288-4,600 mg/L. The suitable pH was 6.0-9.0, the average COD removal reached 80%, and the biomass increased by an average of 9.16 times. The wastewater COD removal was independent of the NH4(+)-N concentration. Moreover, the PSB functioned effectively when the inoculum size was only 10 mg/L. The PSB-treated wastewater was then further handled in an EDI system. More than 90% of the NH4(+)-N was removed from the wastewater and condensed in the concentrate, which could be used to produce nitrogen fertilizer. In the whole system, the average NH4(+)-N removal was 94%, and the average NH4(+)-N condensing ratio was 10.0.

Abstract
In this work, three matching modes (relative positions, catholyte flow sequences, and flow regimes) of bioelectrochemical module and anaerobic sludge were evaluated and optimized for azo dye treatment in the integrated system with embedding modular bioelectrochemical system into anaerobic sludge reactor. Results showed that it was favorable to operate this integrated system under the condition of 1/4 cathode soaking into sludge with spiral distributor in down-flow direction. Current, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and pH clearly demonstrated the important role of 1/4 soaking in electron/proton transfer. The down-flow direction flowed through electrode zone and then sludge zone could benefit to the efficient use of cathode and improve AO7 treatment. Furthermore, the positive effect of spiral catholyte distributor might be due to its promoting role in mixing and creating a spiral flow channel around the cathode electrode-microbes-solution interface. These results exhibited great potential for matching modular bioelectrochemical system with anaerobic treatment process.

Abstract
Antibiotics in wastewaters must be degraded to eliminate their antibacterial activity before discharging into the environment. A cathode can provide continuous electrons for the degradation of refractory pollutants, however the cathodic degradation feasibility, efficiency and pathway for different kinds of antibiotics is poorly understood. Here, we investigated the degradation of four antibiotics, namely nitrofurazone (NFZ), metronidazole (MNZ), chloramphenicol (CAP), and florfenicol (FLO) by a poised cathode in a dual chamber electrochemical reactor. The cyclic voltammetry preliminarily proved the feasibility of the cathodic degradation of these antibiotics. The cathodic reducibility of these antibiotics followed the order of NFZ > MNZ > CAP > FLO. A decreased phosphate buffered solution (PBS) concentration as low as 2 mM or utilization of NaCl buffer solution as catholyte had significant influence on antibiotics degradation rate and efficiency for CAP and FLO but not for NFZ and MNZ. PBS could be replaced by Na2CO3-NaHCO3 buffer solution as catholyte for the degradation of these antibiotics. Reductive dechlorination of CAP proceeded only after the reduction of the nitro group to aromatic amine. The composition of the degradation products depended on the cathode potential except for MNZ. The cathodic degradation process could eliminate the antibacterial activity of these antibiotics. The current study suggests that the electrochemical reduction could serve as a potential pretreatment or advanced treatment unit for the treatment of antibiotics containing wastewaters.

Abstract
Excellent perchlorate reduction was obtained under various initial concentrations in a non-membrane microbial electrolysis cell with polyaniline (PANI) modified graphite cathode as sole electron donor. PANI modification is conducive to the formation of biofilm due to its porous structure and good electrocatalytic performance. Compared with cathode without biofilm, over 12% higher reduction rates were acquired in the presence of biocathode. The study demonstrates that, instead of perchlorate reduction, the main contribution of biofilm is involved in facilitate electron transfer from cathode to electrolyte. Interestingly, hairlike structure, referred as to pili-like, was observed in the biofilm as well as in the electrolyte. Additionally, the results show that pili were prone to formation under the condition of external electron field as sole electron donor. Analysis of microbial community suggests that perchlorate reduction bacteria community was most consistent with Azospiraoryzae strain DSM 13638 in the subdivision of the class Proteobacteria.

Abstract
A new integrated system, embedding a modular bioelectrochemical system (BES) with surrounding electrode deployment into an anaerobic sludge reactor (ASR), was developed to improve azo dye decolorization. Results demonstrated that the AO7 decolorization and COD removal can be improved without co-substrate in such system. The kinetic rate of decolorization (0.54h(-1)) in integrated system was 1.4-fold and 54.0-fold higher than that in biocathode BES (0.39h(-1)) and ASR (0.01h(-1)), respectively. COD can be removed after cleavage of azo bond, different from biocathode BES. The combined advantages of this integrated system were achieved by the cooperation of biocathode in modular BES and sludge in ASR. Biocathode was a predominant factor in AO7 decolorization, and anaerobic sludge contributed negligibly to AO7 reduction decolorization but mostly in the COD removal. These results demonstrated the great potential of integrating a BES module with anaerobic treatment process for azo dye treatment.

Abstract
This study developed and optimized a modular biocathode materials design in bioelectrochemical system (BES) using composite metal and carbon-based materials. The 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) dechlorination could be improved with such composite materials. Results showed that stainless steel basket (SSB) filled with graphite granules (GG) and carbon brush (CB) (SSB/GG/CB) was optimum for dechlorination, followed by SSB/CB and SSB/GG, with rate constant k of 0.0418 ± 0.0002, 0.0374 ± 0.0004, and 0.0239 ± 0.0002 h(-1), respectively. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) demonstrated that the composite materials with metal can benefit the electron transfer and decrease the charge transfer resistance to be 80.4 Ω in BES-SSB/GG/CB, much lower than that in BES-SSB (1674.3 Ω), BES-GG (387.3 Ω), and BES-CB (193.8 Ω). This modular cathode design would be scalable with successive modules for BES scale-up, and may offer useful information to guide the selection and design of BES materials towards dechlorination improvement in wastewater treatment.
