BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2024; 403:130866. [PMID: 38777231 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2024.130866] [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: 02/01/2024] [Revised: 05/19/2024] [Accepted: 05/19/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
Attachment of microalgae on the inner surfaces of photobioreactors impacts the efficiency of swine wastewater treatment by reducing the light intensity, which has been overlooked in previous studies. This study investigated the relationship between microalgal attachment biomass and light intensity in photobioreactors, determined the optimal attachment time for effective pollutant removal, and clarified the mechanisms of microalgal attachment in swine wastewater. After 9 days of treatment, the attached biomass in the photobioreactor increased from 0 to 6.4 g/m2, decreasing the light intensity from 2,000 to 936 lux. At the 24 h optimal attachment time, the concentrations of chemical oxygen demand, ammonia nitrogen, and total phosphorus decreased from 2725.1, 396.4, and 87.2 mg/L to 361.2, 4.9, and 0.8 mg/L, respectively. Polysaccharides in the extracellular polymeric substances released by microalgae play a significant role in facilitating microalgae attachment. Optimizing the microalgal attachment time within photobioreactors effectively mitigates pollutant concentrations in swine wastewater.

Abstract
Indigenous microalgae-bacteria consortium (IMBC) offers significant advantages for swine wastewater (SW) treatment including enhanced adaptability and resource recovery. In this review, the approaches for enriching IMBC both in situ and ex situ were comprehensively described, followed by symbiotic mechanisms for IMBC which involve metabolic cross-feeding and signal transmission. Strategies for enhancing treatment efficiencies of SW-originated IMBC were then introduced, including improving SW quality, optimizing system operating conditions, and adjusting microbial activities. Recommendations for maximizing treatment efficiencies were particularly proposed using a decision tree approach. Moreover, removal/recovery mechanisms for typical pollutants in SW using IMBC were critically discussed. Ultimately, a technical route termed SW-IMBC-Crop-Pig was proposed, to achieve a closed-loop economy for pig farms by integrating SW treatment with crop cultivation. This review provides a deeper understanding of the mechanism and strategies for IMBC's resource recovery from SW.

A systematic review of antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in mariculture wastewater: Antibiotics removal by microalgal-bacterial symbiotic system (MBSS), ARGs characterization on the metagenomic. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 930:172601. [PMID: 38657817 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.172601] [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: 11/02/2023] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 04/26/2024]
Abstract
Antibiotic residues in mariculture wastewater seriously affect the aquatic environment. Antibiotic Resistance Genes (ARGs) produced under antibiotic stress flow through the environment and eventually enter the human body, seriously affecting human health. Microalgal-bacterial symbiotic system (MBSS) can remove antibiotics from mariculture and reduce the flow of ARGs into the environment. This review encapsulates the present scenario of mariculture wastewater, the removal mechanism of MBSS for antibiotics, and the biomolecular information under metagenomic assay. When confronted with antibiotics, there was a notable augmentation in the extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) content within MBSS, along with a concurrent elevation in the proportion of protein (PN) constituents within the EPS, which limits the entry of antibiotics into the cellular interior. Quorum sensing stimulates the microorganisms to produce biological responses (DNA synthesis - for adhesion) through signaling. Oxidative stress promotes gene expression (coupling, conjugation) to enhance horizontal gene transfer (HGT) in MBSS. The microbial community under metagenomic detection is dominated by aerobic bacteria in the bacterial-microalgal system. Compared to aerobic bacteria, anaerobic bacteria had the significant advantage of decreasing the distribution of ARGs. Overall, MBSS exhibits remarkable efficacy in mitigating the challenges posed by antibiotics and resistant genes from mariculture wastewater.

Abstract
The photodegradation products (PDPs) of antibiotics in the aquatic environment received increasing concern, but their chronic effects on microalgae remain unclear. This study initially focused on examining the acute effects of erythromycin (ERY), then explored the chronic impacts of ERY PDPs on Chlorella pyrenoidosa. ERY of 4.0 - 32 mg/L ERY notably inhibited the cell growth and chlorophyll synthesis. The determined 96 h median effective concentration of ERY to C. pyrenoidosa was 11.78 mg/L. Higher concentrations of ERY induced more serious oxidative damage, antioxidant enzymes alleviated the oxidative stress. 6 PDPs (PDP749, PDP747, PDP719, PDP715, PDP701 and PDP557) were identified in the photodegradation process of ERY. The predicted combined toxicity of PDPs increased in the first 3 h, then decreased. Chronic exposure showed a gradual decreasing inhibition on microalgae growth and chlorophyll content. The acute effect of ERY PDPs manifested as growth stimulation, but the chronic effect manifested as growth inhibition. The malonaldehyde contents decreased with the degradation time of ERY at 7, 14 and 21 d. However, the malonaldehyde contents of ERY PDPs treatments were elevated compared to those in the control group after 21 d. Risk assessment still need to consider the potential toxicity of degradation products under long-term exposure.

Abstract
The livestock sector is responsible for a significant amount of wastewater globally. The microalgal-bacterial consortium (MBC) treatment has gained increasing attention as it is able to eliminate pollutants to yield value-added microalgal products. This review offers a critical discussion of the source of pollutants from livestock wastewater and the environmental impact of these pollutants. It also discusses the interactions between microalgae and bacteria in treatment systems and natural habitats in detail. The effects on MBC on the removal of various pollutants (conventional and emerging) are highlighted, focusing specifically on analysis of the removal mechanisms. Notably, the various influencing factors are classified into internal, external, and operating factors, and the mutual feedback relationships between them and the target (removal efficiency and biomass) have been thoroughly analysed. Finally, a wastewater recycling treatment model based on MBC is proposed for the construction of a green livestock farm, and the application value of various microalgal products has been analysed. The overall aim was to indicate that the use of MBC can provide cost-effective and eco-friendly approaches for the treatment of livestock wastewater, thereby advancing the path toward a promising microalgal-bacterial-based technology.

Abstract
This study constructed a cyanobacteria-bacteria consortium using a mixture of non-toxic cyanobacteria (Synechococcus sp. and Chroococcus sp.) immobilized in calcium alginate and native bacteria in wastewater. The consortium was used for the advanced treatment of sulfamethoxazole-polluted wastewater and the production of cyanobacterial lipid. Mixed cyanobacteria increased the abundances of denitrifying bacteria and phosphorus-accumulating bacteria as well as stimulated various functional enzymes in the wastewater bacterial community, which efficiently removed 70.01-71.86% of TN, 91.45-97.04% of TP and 70.72-76.85% of COD from the wastewater. The removal efficiency of 55.29-69.90% for sulfamethoxazole was mainly attributed to the upregulation of genes encoding oxidases, reductases, oxidoreductases and transferases in two cyanobacterial species as well as the increased abundances of Stenotrophomonas, Sediminibacterium, Arenimonas, Novosphingobium, Flavobacterium and Hydrogenophaga in wastewater bacterial community. Transcriptomic responses proved that mixed cyanobacteria presented an elevated lipid productivity of 33.90 mg/L/day as an adaptive stress response to sulfamethoxazole. Sediminibacterium, Flavobacterium and Exiguobacterium in the wastewater bacterial community may also promote cyanobacterial lipid synthesis through symbiosis. Results of this study proved that the mixed cyanobacteria-bacteria consortium was a promising approach for advanced wastewater treatment coupled to cyanobacterial lipid production.

Abstract
This study explored the collaborative effect on nutrients removal performance and microbial community in solid-phase denitrification based bacteria-algae symbiosis system. Three biodegradable carriers (apple wood, poplar wood and corncob) and two algae species (Chlorella vulgaris and Chlorella pyrenoidosa) were selected in these bacteria-algae symbiosis systems. Results demonstrated that corncob as the carrier exhibited the highest average removal efficiencies of total nitrogen (83.7%-85.1%) and phosphorus removal (38.1%-49.1%) in comparison with apple wood (65.8%-71.5%, 25.5%-32.7%) and poplar wood (42.5%-49.1%, 14.2%-20.7%), which was mainly attributed to the highest organics availability of corncob. The addition of Chlorella acquired approximately 3%-5% of promotion rates for nitrated removal among three biodegradable carriers, but only corncob reactor acquired significant promotions by 3%-11% for phosphorous removal. Metagenomics sequencing analysis further indicated that Proteobacteria was the largest phylum in all wood reactors (77.1%-93.3%) and corncob reactor without Chlorella (85.8%), while Chlorobi became the most dominant phylum instead of Proteobacteria (20.5%-41.3%) in the corncob with addition of Chlorella vulgaris (54.5%) and Chlorella pyrenoidosa (76.3%). Thus, the higher organics availability stimulated the growth of algae, and promoted the performance of bacteria-algae symbiosis system based biodegradable carriers.

Abstract
Nowadays, emerging pollutants are widely used and exist in wastewater, such as antibiotics, heavy metals, nanoparticle and microplastic. As a green alternative for wastewater treatment, microalgal-bacterial symbiosis has been aware of owning multiple merits of low energy consumption and little greenhouse gas emission. Thus, the responses of microalgal-bacterial symbiosis to emerging pollutants in wastewater treatment have become a hotspot in recent years. In this review paper, the removal performance of microalgal-bacterial symbiosis on organics, nitrogen and phosphorus in wastewater containing emerging pollutants has been summarized. The adaptation mechanisms of microalgal-bacterial symbiosis to emerging pollutants have been analyzed. It is found that antibiotics usually have hormesis effects on microalgal-bacterial symbiosis, and that microalgal-bacterial symbiosis appears to show more capacity to remove tetracycline and sulfamethoxazole, rather than oxytetracycline and enrofloxacin. Generally, microalgal-bacterial symbiosis can adapt to heavy metals at a concentration of less than 1 mg/L, but its capabilities to remove contaminants can be significantly affected at 10 mg/L heavy metals. Further research should focus on the influence of mixed emerging pollutants on microalgal-bacterial symbiosis, and the feasibility of using selected emerging pollutants (e.g., antibiotics) as a carbon source for microalgal-bacterial symbiosis should also be explored. This review is expected to deepen our understandings on emerging pollutants removal from wastewater by microalgal-bacterial symbiosis.
