In situ electron generation through Fe/C supported sludge coupled with a counter-diffusion biofilm for electron-deficient wastewater treatment: Binding properties and catalytic competition mechanism of nitrate reductase. WATER RESEARCH 2024; 257:121688. [PMID: 38723349 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2024.121688] [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: 01/31/2024] [Revised: 04/15/2024] [Accepted: 04/27/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
A membrane-aerated biofilm-coupled Fe/C supported sludge system (MABR-Fe/C) was constructed to achieve in situ electron production for NO3--N reduction enhancement in different Fe/C loadings (10 g and 200 g). The anoxic environment formed in the MABR-Fe/C promoted a continual Fe2+release of Fe/C in 120 d operation (average Fe2+concentrations is 1.18 and 2.95 mg/L in MABR-Fe/C10 and MABR-Fe/C200, respectively). Metagenomics results suggested that the electrons generated from ongoing Fe2+ oxidation were transferred via the Quinone pool to EC 1.7.5.1 rather than EC 1.9.6.1 to complete the process of NO3--N reduction to NO2--N in Acidovorax, Ottowia, and Polaromonas. In the absence of organic matter, the NO3--N removal in MABR-Fe/C10 and MABR-Fe/C200 increased by 11.99 and 12.52 mg/L, respectively, compared to that in MABR. In the further NO2--N reduction, even if the minimum binding free energy (MBFE) was low, NO2--N in Acidovorax and Dechloromonas preferentially bind the Gln-residues for dissimilatory nitrate reduction (DNR) in the presence of Fe/C. Increasing Fe/C loading (MABR-Fe/C200) caused the formation of different residue binding sites, further enhancing the already dominant DNR. When DNR in MABR-Fe/C200 intensified, the TN in the effluent increased by 3.75 mg/L although the effluent NO3--N concentration was lower than that in MABR-Fe/C10. This study demonstrated a new MABR-Fe/C system for in situ electron generation to enhance biological nitrogen removal and analyzed the NO3--N reduction pathway and metabolic mechanism, thus providing new ideas for nitrogen removal in electron-deficient wastewater.

Anticancer drugs impact the performance and prokaryotic microbiome of an aerobic granular sludge system operated in a sequential batch reactor. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 467:133674.

Abstract
Increased concerns exist about the presence of anticancer drugs in wastewater. However, knowledge of the impacts of anticancer drugs on the performance of the system and microbial communities during wastewater treatment processes is limited. We examined the effect of three anticancer drugs commonly detected in influents of wastewater treatment plants applied at three different concentration levels on the performance, efficiency of anticancer drug removal, and prokaryotic microbiome in an aerobic granular sludge system (AGS) operated in a sequential batch reactor (SBR). We showed that an AGS can efficiently remove anticancer drugs, with removal rates in the range of 53-100% depending on the type of drug and concentration level. Anticancer drugs significantly decreased the abundance of total bacterial and archaeal communities, an effect that was linked to reduced nitrogen removal efficiency. Anticancer drugs also reduced the diversity, altered the prokaryotic community composition, reduced network complexity, and induced a decrease of a wide range of predicted bacterial functions. Specific bacterial taxa responsive to the addition of anticancer drugs with known roles in nitrification and denitrification were identified. This study shows anticancer drugs should be monitored in the future as they can induce changes in the performance and microbiome of wastewater treatment technologies.

BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2023; 389:129812. [PMID: 37776911 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2023.129812] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2023] [Revised: 09/24/2023] [Accepted: 09/27/2023] [Indexed: 10/02/2023]
Abstract
In practical engineering, nitrogen removal at low temperatures or low C/N ratios is difficult. Although strains can remove nitrogen well at low temperatures, there is no research on the performance and deep mechanism of strains under low C/N ratio stress. In this study, Pseudomonas sp. LW60 with superior nitrogen removal efficiency under low C/N ratio stress was isolated at 4 °C. With a C/N ratio of 2-10, the NH4+-N removal efficiency was 40.02 %-100 % at 4 °C. Furthermore, the resistance mechanism of Pseudomonas sp. LW60 to low C/N ratio stress was deeply investigated by multi-omics. The results of transcriptome, proteome, and metabolome revealed that the resistance of strain LW60 to low C/N ratio stress was attributed to enhanced central carbon metabolism, amino acid metabolism, and ABC transporters, rather than nitrogen removal pathways. This study isolated a strain with low C/N ratio tolerance and deeply explored its tolerance mechanism by multi-omics.

Explaining nitrogen turnover in sediments and water through variations in microbial community composition and potential function. CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 344:140379. [PMID: 37827459 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.140379] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2023] [Revised: 09/20/2023] [Accepted: 10/05/2023] [Indexed: 10/14/2023]
Abstract
Anthropogenic activities greatly impact nitrogen (N) biogeochemical cycling in aquatic ecosystems. High N concentrations in coastal aquaculture waters threaten fishery production and aquaculture ecosystems and have become an urgent problem to be solved. Existing microbial flora and metabolic potential significantly regulate N turnover in aquatic ecosystems. To clarify the contribution of microorganisms to N turnover in sediment and water, we investigated three types of aquaculture ecosystems in coastal areas of Guangdong, China. Nitrate nitrogen (NO3--N) was the dominant component of total nitrogen in the sediment (interstitial water, 90.4%) and water (61.6%). This finding indicates that NO3--N (1.67-2.86 mg/L and 2.98-7.89 mg/L in the sediment and water) is a major pollutant in aquaculture ecosystems. In water, the relative abundances of assimilation nitrogen reduction and aerobic denitrifying bacteria, as well as the metabolic potentials of nitrogen fixation and dissimilated nitrogen in fish monoculture, were only 61.0%, 31.5%, 47.5%, and 27.2% of fish and shrimp polyculture, respectively. In addition, fish-shrimp polyculture reduced NO3--N content (2.86 mg/L) compared to fish monoculture (7.89 mg/L), which was consistent with changes in aerobic denitrification and nitrate assimilation, suggesting that polyculture could reduce TN concentrations in water bodies and alleviate nitrogen pollution risks. Further analysis via structural equation modeling (SEM) revealed that functional pathways (36% and 31%) explained TN changes better than microbial groups in sediment and water (13% and 11%), suggesting that microbial functional capabilities explain TN better than microbial community composition and other factors (pH, O2, and aquaculture type). This study enhances our understanding of nitrogen pollution characteristics and microbial community and functional capabilities related to sediment-water nitrogen turnover in three types of aquaculture ecosystems, which can contribute to the preservation of healthy coastal ecosystems.

Abstract
The nitrogen removal performance and mechanisms of Bacillus subtilis H1 isolated from a mariculture environment were investigated. Strain H1 efficiently removed NH4+-N, NO2--N, and NO3--N in simulated wastewater with removal efficiencies of 85.61%, 90.58%, and 57.82%, respectively. Strain H1 also efficiently degraded mixed nitrogen (NH4+-N mixed with NO2--N and/or NO3--N) and had removal efficiencies ranging from 82.39 to 89.54%. Nitrogen balance analysis revealed that inorganic nitrogen was degraded by heterotrophic nitrification-aerobic denitrification (HN-AD) and assimilation. 15N isotope tracing indicated that N2O was the product of the HN-AD process, while N2 as the final product was only detected during the reduction of 15NO2--N. The nitrogen assimilation and dissimilation pathways by strain H1 were further clarified using complete genome sequencing, nitrification inhibitor addition, and enzymatic activity measurement, and the ammonium oxidation process was speculated as NH4+ → NH2OH → NO → N2O. These results showed the application prospect of B. subtilis H1 in treating mariculture wastewater.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Biological denitrification has been commonly adopted for the removal of nitrogen from sewage effluents. However, due to the low temperature during winter, microorganisms in the wastewater biological treatment unit usually encounter problems such as slow cell growth and low enzymatic efficiency. Hence, the isolation and screening of cold-tolerant aerobic denitrifying bacteria (ADB) have recently drawn attention. In our previous study, two Pseudomonas strains PMCC200344 and PMCC200367 isolated from Arctic soil demonstrated strong denitrification ability at low temperatures. The two Arctic strains show potential for biological nitrogen removal from sewage in cold environments. However, the genome sequences of these two organisms have not been reported thus far. RESULTS Here, the basic characteristics and genetic diversity of strains PMCC200344 and PMCC200367 were described, together with the complete genomes and comparative genomic results. The genome of Pseudomonas sp. PMCC200344 was composed of a circular chromosome of 6,478,166 bp with a G + C content of 58.60% and contained a total of 5,853 genes. The genome of Pseudomonas sp. PMCC200367 was composed of a circular chromosome of 6,360,061 bp with a G + C content of 58.68% and contained 5,801 genes. Not only prophages but also genomic islands were identified in the two Pseudomonas strains. No plasmids were observed. All genes of a complete set of denitrification pathways as well as various putative cold adaptation and heavy metal resistance genes in the genomes were identified and analyzed. These genes were usually detected on genomic islands in bacterial genomes. CONCLUSIONS These analytical results provide insights into the genomic basis of microbial denitrification in cold environments, indicating the potential of Arctic Pseudomonas strains in nitrogen removal from sewage effluents at low temperatures.

Efficient nitrogen removal by a novel extreme strain, Pseudomonas reactans WL20-3 under dual stresses of low temperature and high alkalinity: Characterization, mechanism, and application.

Abstract
Although many studies report the resistance of heterotrophic nitrification-aerobic denitrification (HN-AD) strains to single environmental stress, there is no research on its resistance to dual stresses of low temperature and high alkalinity. A novel bacterium Pseudomonas reactants WL20-3 isolated in this study showed removal efficiencies of 100%, 100%, and 97.76% for ammonium, nitrate, and nitrite, respectively, at 4 °C and pH 11.0. Transcriptome analysis revealed that the resistance of strain WL20-3 to dual stresses was attributed not only to the regulation of genes in the nitrogen metabolic pathway, but also to genes in other pathways such as the ribosome, oxidative phosphorylation, amino acid metabolism, and ABC transporters. Additionally, WL20-3 removed 83.98% of ammonium from actual wastewater at 4 °C and pH 11.0. This study isolated a novel strain WL20-3 with superior nitrogen removal under dual stresses and provided a molecular understanding of its tolerance mechanism to low temperature and high alkalinity.

Abstract
A novel heterotrophic nitrification and aerobic denitrification (HN-AD) bacterium D1-1 was identified as Pseudomonas nicosulfuronedens D1-1. Strain D1-1 removed 97.24%, 97.25%, and 77.12% of 100 mg/L NH4+-N, NO3--N, and NO2--N, with corresponding maximum removal rates of 7.42, 8.69, and 7.15 mg·L-1·h-1, respectively. Strain D1-1 bioaugmentation enhanced woodchip bioreactor performance with an average NO3--N removal efficiency of 93.8%. Bioaugmentation enriched N cyclers along with increased bacterial diversity and predicted genes for denitrification, DNRA (dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium), and ammonium oxidation. It also reduced local selection and network modularity from 4.336 to 0.934, resulting in predicted nitrogen (N) cycling genes shared by more modules. These observations suggested that bioaugmentation could enhance the functional redundancy to stabilize the NO3--N removal performance. This study provides insights into the potential applications of HN-AD bacteria in bioremediation or other environmental engineering fields, relying on their ability to shape bacterial communities.

Abstract
To further investigate the potential of heterotrophic nitrification-aerobic denitrification (HN-AD) bacteria for practical applications, the HN-AD mixed bacteria HY-1 were enriched and domesticated in this study. After five generations of domestication, the mixture was able to remove 98% of ammonia nitrogen (400 mg/L) and 81.9% of mixed nitrogen source (nitrate, nitrite). Changes in community structure in the domestication process of mixed microorganisms were studied using 16S rDNA-seq. The results indicated an increase in the abundance of Acinetobacter from 16.9% to 80%. The conditions for the expanded culture of the HY-1 were also optimized. Moreover, A pilot-scale expanded reactor with a capacity of 1000L was constructed, and the HY-1 was successfully expanded from 0.1L to 800L. The community structures of the HY-1 remained stable after the expanded culture, with Acinetobacter as the dominant species. Moreover, the HY-1 demonstrated adaptability to actual high ammonia nitrogen wastewater and showed potential for practical application.

BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2023; 378:128994. [PMID: 37004889 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2023.128994] [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: 02/25/2023] [Revised: 03/28/2023] [Accepted: 03/30/2023] [Indexed: 06/19/2023]
Abstract
Aerobic environments exist widely in wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) and are unfavorable for greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O) reduction. Here, a novel strain Pseudomonas sp. YR02, which can perform N2O reduction under aerobic conditions, was isolated. The successful amplification of four denitrifying genes proved its complete denitrifying ability. The inorganic nitrogen (IN) removal efficiencies (NRE) were >98.0% and intracellular nitrogen and gaseous nitrogen account for 52.6-58.4% and 41.6-47.4% of input nitrogen, respectively. The priority of IN utilization was TAN > NO3--N > NO2--N. The optimal conditions for IN and N2O removal were consistent, except for the C/N ratio, which is 15 and 5 for IN and N2O removal, respectively. The biokinetic constants analysis indicated strain YR02 had high potential to treat high ammonia and dissolved N2O wastewater. Strain YR02 bioaugmentation mitigated 98.7% of N2O emission and improved 32% NRE in WWTP, proving its application potential for N2O mitigation.

Zhang H, Niu L, Ma B, Huang T, Liu T, Liu X, Liu X, Shi Y, Liu H, Li H, Yang W. Novel insights into aerobic denitrifying bacterial communities augmented denitrification capacity and mechanisms in lake waters. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 864:161011. [PMID: 36549517 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.161011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2022] [Revised: 12/02/2022] [Accepted: 12/13/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Scanty attention has been paid to augmenting the denitrification performance of polluted lake water by adding mix-cultured aerobic denitrifying bacterial communities (Mix-CADBCs). In this study, to solve the serious problem of nitrogen pollution in lake water bodies, aerobic denitrifying bacteria were added to lake water to enhance the nitrogen and carbon removal ability. Three Mix-CADBCs were isolated from lake water and they could remove >94 % of total nitrogen and dissolved organic carbon, respectively. The balance of nitrogen analysis shown that >70 % of the initial nitrogen was converted to gaseous nitrogen, and <11 % of the initial nitrogen was converted into microbial biomass. The batch experiments indicated that three Mix-CADBCs could perform denitrification under various conditions. According to the results of nirS-type sequencing, the Hydrogenophaga sp., Prosthecomicrobium sp., and Pseudomonas sp. were dominated genera of three Mix-CADBCs. The analysis of network indicated Pseudomonas I.Bh25.14 and Vogsella LIG4 were correlated with the removal of total nitrogen (TN) and dissolved organic carbon in the Mix-CADBCs. Compared with lake raw water, the addition of three Mix-CADBCs could promote the denitrification capacity (the removal efficiencies of TN > 78.72 %), microbial growth (optical density increased by 0.015-0.138 and the total cell count increased by 2 times), and organic degradation ability (the removal efficiency chemical oxygen demand >38 %) of lake water. In general, the findings of this study demonstrated that Mix-CADBCs could provide a new perspective for biological treatment lake water body.
