ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2024; 358:124533. [PMID: 38996994 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2024.124533] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2024] [Revised: 06/27/2024] [Accepted: 07/10/2024] [Indexed: 07/14/2024]
Abstract
Electrocatalytic coupled biofilter (EBF) technology organically integrates the characteristics of electrochemistry and microbial redox, providing ideas for effectively improving biological treatment performance. In this study, an EBF system was developed for enhanced degradation of cyclohexanone in contaminated water. Experimental results show that the system can effectively remove cyclohexanone in contaminated water. Under the optimal parameters, the removal rates of cyclohexanone, TP, NH4+-N and TN were 97.61 ± 1.31%, 76.31 ± 1.67%, 94.14 ± 2.13% and 95.87 ± 1.01% respectively. Degradation kinetics studies found that electrolysis, adsorption, and biodegradation pathways play a major role in the degradation of cyclohexanone. Microbial community analysis indicates that voltage can affect the structure of the microbial community, with the dominant genera shifting from Acidovorax (0 V) to Brevundimonas (0.7 V). Additionally, Acidovorax, Cupriavidus, Ralstonia, and Hydrogenophaga have high abundance in the biofilm and can effectively metabolize cyclohexanone and its intermediates, facilitating the removal of cyclohexanone. In summary, this research can guide the development and construction of highly stable EBF systems and is expected to be used for advanced treatment of industrial wastewater containing cyclohexanone.

Abstract
The potential genotoxicity and non-biodegradability of antibiotics in the natural water bodies threaten the survival of various living things and cause serious environmental pollution and destruction. Three-dimensional (3D) electrochemical technology is considered a powerful means for antibiotic wastewater treatment as it can degrade non-biodegradable organic substances into non-toxic or harmless substances and even completely mineralize them under the action of electric current. Therefore, antibiotic wastewater treatment using 3D electrochemical technology has now become a hot research topic. Thus, in this review, a detailed and comprehensive investigation was conducted on the antibiotic wastewater treatment using 3D electrochemical technology, including the structure of the reactor, electrode materials, the influence of operating parameters, reaction mechanism, and combination with other technologies. Many studies have shown that the materials of electrode, especially particle electrode, have a great effect on the antibiotic wastewater treatment efficiency. The influence of operating parameters such as cell voltage, solution pH, and electrolyte concentration was very significant. Combination with other technologies such as membrane and biological technologies has effectively increased antibiotic removal and mineralization efficiency. In conclusion, the 3D electrochemical technology is considered as a promising technology for the antibiotic wastewater treatment. Finally, the possible research directions of the 3D electrochemical technology for antibiotic wastewater treatment were proposed.

[PMID: 35868204 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2022.108206] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2022] [Revised: 07/04/2022] [Accepted: 07/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
The application of biological methods in industrial saline wastewater treatment is limited, since the activities of microorganisms are strongly inhibited by the highly concentrated salts. Acclimatized halotolerant and halophilic microorganisms are of high importance since they can resist the environmental stresses of high salinity. The acclimation to salinity can be passive or active based on whether external simulation is used. However, there is a need for development of economic, efficient and reliable active biological stimulation technologies to accelerate salinity acclimation. Recent studies have shown that electrical stimulation can effectively enhance microbial salt tolerance and pollutant removal ability. However, there have been no comprehensive reviews of the mechanisms involved. Therefore, this mini-review described the mechanisms of electrical stimulation that can significantly improve microbial bioactivity and biodiversity. These mechanisms include regulation of Na+ and K+ transporters by changing membranepotential and promoting ATP production, as well as regulation of extracellular polymer substances through enhanced release of low molecular weight EPS and quorum sensing molecules. The information provided herein will facilitate the application of biological high-salinity wastewater treatment.
