Abstract
Textile effluent carries a range of dyes that may be recalcitrant and resistant to biodegradation. A unique consortium of the Fimbristylis dichotoma and Saccharomyces cerevisiae is exploited for the biodegradation of an azo dye Rubine GFL and actual textile effluent. This consortium enhances the rate of biodegradation of Rubine GFL and actual textile effluent with an excellent rate of biodegradation of 92% for Rubine GFL and 68% for actual textile effluent when compared to the individual one within 96 h. Speedy decolorization of Rubine GFL and actual textile effluent was observed due to the induction of oxido-reductive enzymes of the FD-SC consortium. Along with the significant reduction in the values of COD, BOD, ADMI, TSS, and TDS with 70, 64, 65, 41, and 52%, respectively, in experimental sets treated with FD-SC consortium. The biodegradation of Rubine GFL was confirmed with UV-Vis spectroscopy at the preliminary level, and then, metabolites formed after degradation were detected and identified by FTIR, HPLC, and GC-MS techniques. Also, decolorization of the dye was observed in the sections of the root cortex of Fimbristylis dichotoma. The toxicity of dye and metabolites formed after degradation was assessed by seed germination and bacterial count assay, where increased germination % and bacterial count from 31×107CFUs to 92 × 107 CFUs reflect the nontoxic nature of metabolites. Furthermore, the nontoxic nature of metabolites was confirmed by fish toxicity on Cirrhinus mrigala showed normal structures of fish gills and liver in the groups treated with FD-SC consortium proving the better tactic for biodegradation of dyes and textile effluent.

Sharma P, Chandra R. Phytoremediation mechanism and role of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria in weed plants for eco-restoration of hazardous industrial waste polluted site: a review. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2024; 31:42495-42520. [PMID: 38872037 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-024-33910-w] [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: 09/20/2023] [Accepted: 06/01/2024] [Indexed: 06/15/2024]
Abstract
Plants have numerous strategies for phytoremediation depending upon the characteristic of pollutants. Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are essential to the process of phytoremediation and play a key part in it. The mechanism of PGPR for phytoremediation is mediated by two methods; under the direct method there is phytohormone production, nitrogen fixation, nutrient mineral solubilization, and siderophore production while the indirect method includes quorum quenching, antibiosis, production of lytic enzyme, biofilm formation, and hydrogen cyanide production. Due to their economic and environmental viability, most researchers have recently concentrated on the potential of weed plants for phytoremediation. Although weed plants are considered unwanted and noxious, they have a high growth rate and adaptability which opens a high scope for its role in phytoremediation of contaminated site. The interaction of plant with rhizobacteria starts from root exudates containing various organic acids and peptides which act as nutrients essential for colonization and siderophore production by the rhizospheric bacteria. The rhizobacteria, while colonizing, tend to promote plant growth and health either directly by providing phytohormones and minerals or indirectly by suppressing growth of possible phytopathogens. Recently, several weed plants have been reported for phytoextraction of heavy metals (Ni, Pb, Zn, Hg, Cd, Cu, As, Fe, and Cr) contaminants from various agro-based industries. These potential native weed plants have high prospect of eco-restoration of polluted site with complex organo-metallic waste for sustainable development.

Abstract
Sulfonated lignin-based dye dispersants have intensively attracted attention due to their low cost, renewability and abundant sources. However, their utilization is limited by the low content of sulfonic groups and high content of hydroxyl groups in their complex lignin structure, which results in various problems such as high reducing rate of dye, severe staining of the fibers and uneven dyeing. Here, the multi-site sulfonated lignin-based dispersants were prepared with high sulfonic group content (2.20 mmol/g) and low hydroxyl content (2.43 mmol/g). When using it as the dispersant, the dye uptake rate was improved from 69.23 % to 98.55 %, the reducing rate was decreased from 20.82 % to 2.03 %, the K/S value was reduced from 0.69 to 0.02, and the particle sizes in dye system before and after high temperature treatment were stabilized below 0.5 μm. Besides, the dispersion effect was significantly improved because no obvious separation between dye and water was observed even if without the assistance of grinding process. In short, the multi-site sulfonation method proposed in this work could remarkably improve the performances of the lignin-based dye dispersants, which would facilitate the development of the dye dispersion and the high value utilization of lignin.

Abstract
Water pollution is an inextricable problem that stems from natural and human-related factors. Unfortunately, with rapid industrialization, the problem has escalated to alarming levels. The pollutants that contribute to water pollution include heavy metals (HMs), chemicals, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and other industrial byproducts. Numerous methods are used for treating HMs in wastewater, like ion exchange, membrane filtration, chemical precipitation, adsorption, and electrochemical treatment. But the remediation through the plant, i.e., phytoremediation is the most sustainable approach to remove the contaminants from wastewater. Aquatic plants illustrate the capacity to absorb excess pollutants including organic and inorganic compounds, HMs, and pharmaceutical residues present in agricultural, residential, and industrial discharges. The extensive exploitation of these hyperaccumulator plants can be attributed to their abundance, invasive mechanisms, potential for bioaccumulation, and biomass production. Post-phytoremediation, plant biomass can be toxic to both water bodies and soil. Therefore, the circular bioeconomy approach can be applied to reuse and repurpose the toxic plant biomass into different circular bioeconomy byproducts such as biochar, biogas, bioethanol, and biodiesel is essential. In this regard, the current review highlights the potential strategies for the phytoremediation of HMs in wastewater and various strategies to efficiently reuse metal-enriched biomass material and produce commercially valuable products. The implementation of circular bioeconomy practices can help overcome significant obstacles and build a new platform for an eco-friendlier lifestyle.

Abstract
The world has undergone a remarkable transformation from the era of famines to an age of global food production that caters to an exponentially growing population. This transformation has been made possible by significant agricultural revolutions, marked by the intensification of agriculture through the infusion of mechanical, industrial, and economic inputs. However, this rapid advancement in agriculture has also brought about the proliferation of agricultural inputs such as pesticides, fertilizers, and irrigation, which have given rise to long-term environmental crises. Over the past two decades, we have witnessed a concerning plateau in crop production, the loss of arable land, and dramatic shifts in climatic conditions. These challenges have underscored the urgent need to protect our global commons, particularly the environment, through a participatory approach that involves countries worldwide, regardless of their developmental status. To achieve the goal of sustainability in agriculture, it is imperative to adopt multidisciplinary approaches that integrate fields such as biology, engineering, chemistry, economics, and community development. One noteworthy initiative in this regard is Zero Budget Natural Farming, which highlights the significance of leveraging the synergistic effects of both plant and animal products to enhance crop establishment, build soil fertility, and promote the proliferation of beneficial microorganisms. The ultimate aim is to create self-sustainable agro-ecosystems. This review advocates for the incorporation of biotechnological tools in natural farming to expedite the dynamism of such systems in an eco-friendly manner. By harnessing the power of biotechnology, we can increase the productivity of agro-ecology and generate abundant supplies of food, feed, fiber, and nutraceuticals to meet the needs of our ever-expanding global population.

Abstract
Treatment of petroleum-contaminated soil to a less toxic medium via physical and chemical treatment is too costly and requires posttreatment. This review focuses on the employment of phytoremediation and mycoremediation technologies in cleaning hydrocarbon-contaminated soil which is currently rare. It is considered environmentally beneficial and possibly cost-effective as it implements the synergistic interaction between plants and biosurfactant producing mycorrhiza to degrade hydrocarbon contaminants. This review also covers possible sources of hydrocarbon pollution in water and soil, toxicity effects, and current technologies for hydrocarbon removal and degradation. In addition to these problems, this review also discusses the challenges and opportunities of transforming the resultant treated sludge and treating plants into potential by-products for a higher quality of life for future generations.

Abstract
Phytoremediation is a cost-effective and environmentally sound approach, which uses plants to immobilize/stabilize, extract, decay, or lessen toxicity and contaminants. Despite successful evidence of field application, such as natural attenuations, and self-purification, the main barriers remain from a "promising" to a "commercial" approach. Therefore, the ultimate goal of this paper is to examine factors that contribute to phytoremediation's underutilization and discuss the real costs of phytoremediation when the time and land values are considered. We revisit mechanisms and processes of phytoremediation. We synthesize existing information and understanding based on previous works done on phytoremediation and its applications to provide the technical assessment and perspective views in the commercial acceptance of phytoremediation. The results show that phytoremediation is the most suitable for remote regions with low land values. Since these regions allow a longer period to be restored, land vegetation covers can be established in more or less time like natural attenuation. Since the length of phytoremediation is an inherent limitation, this inherent disadvantage limits its adoption in developed business regions, such as growing urban areas. Because high land values could not be recovered in the short term, phytoremediation is not cost-effective in those regions. We examine the potential measures that can enhance the performance of phytoremediation, such as soil amendments, and agricultural practices. The results obtained through review can clarify where/what conditions phytoremediation can provide the most suitable solutions at a large scale. Finally, we identify the main barriers and knowledge gaps to establishing a vegetation cover in large-scale applications and highlight the research priorities for increased acceptance of phytoremediation.

Abstract
For a long time, the well-known Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) has been extensively studied and developed as a biological insecticide for Lepidoptera and Coleoptera pests due to its ability to secrete a large number of specific insecticidal proteins. In recent years, studies have found that Bt strains can also potentially biodegrade residual pollutants in the environment. Many researchers have isolated Bt strains from multiple sites polluted by exogenous compounds and characterized and identified their xenobiotic-degrading potential. Furthermore, its pathway for degradation was also investigated at molecular level, and a number of major genes/enzymes responsible for degradation have been explored. At present, a variety of xenobiotics involved in degradation in Bt have been reported, including inorganic pollutants (used in the field of heavy metal biosorption and recovery and precious metal recovery and regeneration), pesticides (chlorpyrifos, cypermethrin, 2,2-dichloropropionic acid, etc.), organic tin, petroleum and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, reactive dyes (congo red, methyl orange, methyl blue, etc.), and ibuprofen, among others. In this paper, the biodegrading ability of Bt is reviewed according to the categories of related pollutants, so as to emphasize that Bt is a powerful agent for removing environmental pollutants.

Abstract
The present investigation provides a kinetic study for the removal of hexamethyl pararosaniline chloride, a hazardous dye, by phytoremediation using a water plant. It reveals Salvinia molesta has a phytoremediation tendency. The ability of Salvinia molesta to remove crystal violet (CV) dye is investigated with kinetic study in this research. Phytoremediation is done for different concentrations of hexamethyl pararosaniline chloride with varying pH and weight of Salvinia molesta Mitchell. About 88% of hexamethyl pararosaniline chloride has been decolourised from 50 mg L-1 solution at pH of 6 with 4 g of Salvinia molesta Mitchell. The results obtained for hexamethyl pararosaniline chloride removal at pH of 6 are studied for pseudo-first order, pseudo-second order and Elovich kinetics. The resulting curve for removal of hexamethyl pararosaniline chloride indicates that phytoremediation process follows pseudo-second order kinetics with correlation value R2 ≥ 0.985. The Salvinia molesta used at pH 6 has been reused and the decolourisation has been achieved at about 84% for 50 mg L-1 solution of CV dye. The FTIR results reveal the phytoextraction of CV in the roots by interaction of functional groups. From the experimental results, Salvinia molesta Mitchell can be used to treat textile wastewater and wet land.

Abstract
Emerging contaminants removals like dyes and heavy metals from the textile effluent have an immense challenge. The present study focuses on the biotransformation and detoxification of dyes and in situ textile effluent treatment by plants and microbes efficiently. A mixed consortium of perennial herbaceous plant Canna indica and fungi Saccharomyces cerevisiae showed decolorization of di-azo dye Congo red (CR, 100 mg/L) up to 97% within 72 h. Root tissues and Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells revealed induction of various dye-degrading oxidoreductase enzymes such as lignin peroxidase, laccase, veratryl alcohol oxidase and azo reductase during CR decolorization. Chlorophyll a, Chlorophyll b and carotenoid pigments were notably elevated in the leaves of a plant during the treatment. Phytotransformation of CR into its metabolic constituents was detected by using several analytical techniques, including FTIR, HPLC, and GC-MS and its non-toxic nature was confirmed by cyto-toxicological evaluation on Allium cepa and on freshwater bivalves. Mix consortium of plant Canna indica and fungi Saccharomyces cerevisiae efficiently treated textile wastewater (500 L) and reduced ADMI, COD, BOD, TSS and TDS (74, 68, 68, 78, and 66%) within 96 h. In situ textile wastewater treatment for in furrows constructed and planted with Canna indica, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and consortium-CS within 4 days reveals reduced ADMI, COD, BOD, TDS and TSS (74, 73, 75, 78, and 77%). Comprehensive observations recommend this is an intelligent tactic to exploit this consortium in the furrows for textile wastewater treatment.

Sonophotocatalytic Degradation of Fast Yellow AB and Remazol Brilliant Violet-5R by Using Ag-Impregnated ZnO as a Photocatalyst. ACS OMEGA 2023; 8:18509-18515. [PMID: 37273626 PMCID: PMC10233690 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.3c00171] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2023] [Accepted: 03/27/2023] [Indexed: 06/06/2023]
Abstract
The fundamental aim of this project was to assess the sonophotocatalytic degradation of textile dyes mostly eluted from industries into wastewater. Such a pretreatment of wastewater makes the water suitable for drinking and irrigation purposes and thereby helps protect the ecosystem. The main objective of this research was to degrade real samples and laboratory-prepared samples sonophotocatalytically using a silver-impregnated ZnO photocatalyst. Reactive dyes, including Fast Yellow AB (FY AB) and Remazol Brilliant Violet-5R (RBV-5R), were degraded via this technique under optimum and enhanced conditions. The photocatalyst was synthesized through a wet impregnation process and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and UV/vis spectroscopy to examine the morphology, composition, and functional groups of the photocatalyst. Parameters including pH, dosage, dye concentration, scavengers, and effects of oxidizing agents were considered. Under optimal conditions, the degradations were 95.7 and 88.9% for RBV-5R and FY AB, respectively, in 60 min. The pH and oxidizing agents played important roles in the degradation process. Only 43.8 and 32.5% of RBV-5R and FY AB, respectively, were degraded in the absence of an oxidizing agent. With the addition of oxidizing agents, 95.7 and 88.9% of RBV-5R and FY AB degradation occurred, respectively. The optimal pH values for RBV 5-R and FY-AB were 8 and 12, respectively. A comparison between the photocatalytic and sonophotocatalytic processes revealed degradation efficiencies of 41 and 33% for RBV-5R and FY-AB, respectively, by the photocatalytic process. Therefore, results indicate the productivity of the sonophotocatalytic degradation process.

Abstract
Phytoremediation is emerging as an eco-friendly, innovative, and cost-effective approach for the removal of textile dyes from wastewater from the previous decade. The current research work aims to explore the potential of a terrestrial ornamental plant, Bryophyllum fedtschenkoi (Raym.-Hamet & H. Perrier) Lauz.-March. for remediating the diazo dye as Congo red (CR) in aqueous form. B. fedtschenkoi was grown hydroponically before treatment with 100 mL of a different concentration of CR dye solution. A maximum decolorization potential of 90% was obtained for 10 mg L- 1 after 40 h of equilibrium. The kinetic studies have revealed that the experimental results for the removal of CR dye using the B .fedtschenkoi plant are suitable for Pseudo-first order with R2 ≥ 0.92, while the equilibrium studies agreed with the Freundlich adsorption isotherm with R2 ≥ 0.909. The dye removal by the plant was confirmed with the help of analytical techniques Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) were also performed on dye-degraded metabolites to explore the mechanism of dye degradation.

Abstract
Quail bush [Atriplex lentiformis (Torr.) S. Wats] plants were used in removing 2, 4-dinitrophenol (DNP) from wastewater in a hydroponic experiment. The hydroponic system contained three doses of DNP, i.e., 0, 10, and 20 mg L-1. Quail bush plants were sprayed with 0.1 mM salicylic acid (SA) to study its role in resisting DNP toxicity. DNP significantly (p < 0.05) reduced plant growth. Exposure of A. lentiformis plants to 20 mg L-1 of DNP reduced the total chlorophyl and relative water content by 39 and 24%, respectively. SA improved the antioxidant defense in terms of ascorbate peroxidase (APX) and polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activities. SA alleviated DNP toxicity by enhancing the production of osmoprotectants, e.g.,proline, phenols, and carbohydrates. SA enhanced the removal efficiency of DNP and the highest removal efficiency (96%) was recorded in the plants sprayed with SA and grown on 10 mg L-1 of DNP. A. lentiformis is a halophytic plant that has good physiological characteristics to resist 2, 4-dinitrophenol toxicity in wastewaters and is qualified to purify water from these harmful compounds. Exogenous application of 0.1 mM SA increased the defense system in A. lentiformis against 2, 4-dinitrophenol toxicity and enhanced the removal efficiency.

Abstract
The discharge of untreated wastewater as a result of various developmental activities such as urbanization, industrialization and changes in lifestyle poses great threats to aquatic ecosystems as well as humans. Currently, ∼380 billion m3 (380 trillion liters) of wastewater is generated globally every year. Around 70% of freshwater withdrawals are used for agricultural production throughout the world. The wastewater generated through agricultural run-off further pollutes freshwater resources. However, only 24% of the total wastewater generated from households and industries is treated before its disposal in rivers or reused in agriculture. The most problematic contaminants associated with ecological toxicity are heavy metals such as Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Zn, Fe, Pb, Hg, As and Mn. One of the most important issues linked with wastewater generation is the residual presence of pathogenic microorganisms which pose potential health hazards to consumers when they enter into the food chain. It is estimated that in India almost USD 600 million (48.60 billion INR) is spent per year to tackle waterborne diseases (WBD). In light of this, immediate action is needed to effectively treat wastewater and develop safer reuse prospects. Various wastewater treatment technologies have been established and they work well to provide an alternative water source to meet the growing demand. The main concern towards treating wastewater is to eliminate inorganic and organic substances and lower the nutrient concentration, total solids, and microbial pathogens to prevent freshwater pollution and health risks.

Abstract
The treatment of single and binary azo dyes, as well as the effect of the circuit connection, aeration, and plant on the performance of UFCW-MFC, were explored in this study. The decolorization efficiency of Remazol Yellow FG (RY) (single dye: 98.2 %; binary dye: 92.3 %) was higher than Reactive Black 5 (RB5) (single: 92.3 %; binary: 86.7 %), which could be due to monoazo dye (RY) requiring fewer electrons to break the azo bond compared to the diazo dye (RB5). In contrast, the higher decolorization rate of RB5 in binary dye indicated the removal rate was affected by the electron-withdrawing groups in the dye structure. The closed circuit enhanced about 2% of color and 4% of COD removal. Aeration improved the COD removal by 6%, which could be contributed by the mineralization of intermediates. The toxicity of azo dyes was reduced by 11-26% and the degradation pathways were proposed. The dye removal by the plants was increased with a higher contact time. RB5 was more favorable to be uptook by the plant as RB5 holds a higher partial positive charge. 127.39 (RY), 125.82 (RB5), and 58.66 mW/m3 (binary) of maximum power density were generated. The lower power production in treating the binary dye could be due to more electrons being utilized for the degradation of higher dye concentration. Overall, the UFCW-MFC operated in a closed circuit, aerated, and planted conditions achieved the optimum performance in treating binary azo dyes containing wastewater (dye: 87-92%; COD: 91%) compared to the other conditions (dye: 83-92%; COD: 78-87%).

Abstract
Phytoremediation has been widely employed for industrial effluent treatment due to its cost-effectiveness and eco-friendliness. However, this process generates large amounts of exhausted plant biomass, requiring appropriate management strategies to avoid further environmental pollution. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this study is the first to address the recyclability of water hyacinth after textile wastewater (TWW) phytoremediation for dual biogas and biochar production. A hydroponic culture system was occupied by 163 g (plant mass) per L (TWW) and operated under 16:8 h light:dark cycle (sunlight), 70-80% relative humidity, and 22-25 °C temperature. This water hyacinth-based system achieved chemical oxygen demand (COD), ammonia nitrogen (NH4+-N), and dye removal efficiencies of 58.60 ± 2.63%, 35.27 ± 1.65%, and 38.49 ± 2.24%, respectively, at a TWW fraction of 100 %v/v. The plant characterization study revealed that phytoabsorption and phytoextraction could be the main mechanisms involved in TWW pollution reduction. The lignin and hemicellulose of water hyacinth were slightly degraded during phytoremediation, making the cellulose fibers simply accessible to enzymes' attack in the subsequent anaerobic digestion process. This hypothesis was validated by increasing the crystallinity index from 50.13% to 60.21% during TWW phytoremediation. The spent plant was cleaned and then co-digested (37 °C) with cow dung at 1:1 (w/w, dry basis) for bioenergy production. The generated biogas was 162.78 ± 8.34 mL CH4/g COD (i.e., 225.63 ± 11.36 mL CH4/g volatile solids), representing about 490% higher than the utilization of raw water hyacinth in a mono-digestion process. The pyrolysis of digestate-containing plant residues yielded biochar with concentrated cationic macroelements (K+, Mg2+, and Ca2+). The economic feasibility of the phytoremediation/co-digestion/pyrolysis combined system showed an initial investment of 2090 USD and a payback period of 9.08 yr. Because the project succeeded in recovering the cost of its initial investment, it could fulfill the targets of several sustainable development goals related to economic profitability, social acceptance, and environmental protection.

Abstract
Laundry related activities produce huge quantity of wastewater that is very rich in lint, dyes, surfactants, and detergents. The large amount of laundry wastewater (LWW) is generated by extensive human activities. LWW needs to be treated in order to tackle the challenging problem of water pollution and to accomplish water sustainability. To achieve this success, LWW can be reused for several purposes such as irrigation, construction activities, vehicle washing etc. However, there are several challenges in the reclamation of LWW like effective handling of the wastewater and meeting the regulatory criteria. Based on the literature review it seems that a single treatment process is not sufficient to treat LWW up to acceptable reuse standards. To that end, different treatment chains have been proposed: i) hybrid processes combining membrane filtration with adsorption; ii) advanced oxidation process using ultraviolet (UV) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2); iii) coagulation-flocculation combined with sand filtration; iv) combination of ozonation process, adsorption, and ultrafiltration (UF). This review paper discusses the selection of suitable treatment technology depends on several factors: i) a well-designed equipment, ii) cost-effectiveness of treatment method and iii) desired characteristics of the treated water. The review paper also presents solutions for treatment and reclamation of LWW.

Abstract
A novel, circular economy-inspired approach for the "passive" (non-powered and reagent-free) treatment of dye-bearing effluent is presented. The treatment utilises the biogeochemical interaction of dye-bearing wastewater with hydrous ferric oxide (HFO) bearing sludges. The work presented demonstrates for the first time the reuse of HFO-rich waste sludges from potable water and mine water treatment. The waste was used directly without modification or reagent addition, as media/substrate in simple flow-through reactors for the decolourisation and biodegradation of methyl orange (MO) and mixed dyes textile effluent. Three phases of exploratory proof of concept work were undertaken. Columns containing HFO sludges were challenged with solution of MO, and MO amended with glycerol (Phase I), MO in a synthetic textile effluent recipe (Phase II), and real mixed textile effluent containing a mixture of dyes (Phase III). After an initial lag period extensive decolourisation of dye was observed in all cases at rates comparable with pure strains and engineered bioreactor processes, with evidence of biodegradation beyond simple cleavage of the mono azo chromophore and mineralisation. The microbiology of the initial sludge samples in both cases exhibited a diverse range of iron oxidising and reducing bacteria. However, post experiment the microbiology of sludge evolved from being dominated by Proteobacteria to being dominated by Firmicutes. Distinct changes in the microbial community structure were observed in post-treatment MWTS and WTWS where genera capable of iron and sulphate reduction and/or aromatic amine degradation were identified. Average nitrogen removal rates for the columns ranged from 27.8 to 194 g/m3/day which is higher than engineered sequential anaerobic-aerobic bioreactor. Postulated mechanisms for the fast anaerobic decolourisation, biodegradation, and mineralisation of the dyes (as well nitrogen transformations) include various direct and indirect enzymatic and metabolic reactions, as well as reductive attack by continuously regenerated reductants such as Fe(II), HFO bound Fe(II), FeS, and HS-. The ability of iron reducers to degrade aromatic rings is also considered important in the further biodegradation and complete mineralisation of organic carbon. The study reveals that abundant and ubiquitous HFO-rich waste sludges, can be used without amendment, as a substrate in simple flow-through bioremediation system for the decolourisation and partial biodegradation of dyes in textile effluent.

[PMID: 36015619 PMCID: PMC9412383 DOI: 10.3390/polym14163362] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2022] [Revised: 07/25/2022] [Accepted: 07/27/2022] [Indexed: 12/07/2022] Open
Abstract
In this work, a polypyrrole-polyethyleneimine (PPy-PEI) nano-adsorbent was successfully synthesized for the removal of methylene blue (MB) from an aqueous solution. Synthetic dyes are among the most prevalent environmental contaminants. A new conducting polymer-based adsorbent called (PPy-PEI) was successfully produced using ammonium persulfate as an oxidant. The PEI hyper-branched polymer with terminal amino groups was added to the PPy adsorbent to provide more effective chelating sites for dyes. An efficient dye removal from an aqueous solution was demonstrated using a batch equilibrium technique that included a polyethyleneimine nano-adsorbent (PPy-PEI). The best adsorption parameters were measured at a 0.35 g dosage of adsorbent at a pH of 6.2 and a contact period of 40 min at room temperature. The produced PPy-PEI nano-adsorbent has an average particle size of 25–60 nm and a BET surface area of 17 m2/g. The results revealed that PPy-PEI nano-composite was synthesized, and adsorption was accomplished in the minimum amount of time. The maximum monolayer power, qmax, for MB was calculated using the isothermal adsorption data, which matched the Langmuir isotherm model, and the kinetic adsorption data, which more closely fitted the Langmuir pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The Langmuir model was used to calculate the maximum monolayer capacity, or qmax, for MB, which was found to be 183.3 mg g−1. The as-prepared PPy-PEI nano-adsorbent totally removes the cationic dyes from the aqueous solution.

Abstract
AbstractThe decolourization of an aqueous solution of the textile dye Acid Red 88 (AR88) and the control of the invasive plant species Acacia dealbata Link. (ADL) were addressed in this work. The aims of the study were (1) characterization of the ADL pollen, (2) application of the pollen powder in adsorption processes, (3) selection of the best operational conditions for nitriloacetic acid (NTA)-UV-A-Fenton process and (4) assess the efficiency of the combined treatment adsorption and NTA-UV-A-Fenton in AR88 decolourization. In a first step, ADL pollen was used as a AR88 bioadsorbent. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis were performed and revealed the presence of proteins, fatty acids, carbohydrates and lignin in the pollen. Afterwards, trough scanning electron microscopy (SEM), it was possible to verify that ADL pollen has several empty spaces that can be used for dye adsorption. Biosorption results showed higher adsorption of AR88 with application of pH 3.0 and [pollen] = 3.0 g/L with 18.8 mg/g of dye adsorbed. The best fitting was observed with Langmuir, SIPS and Jovanovic isotherms (0.993, 0.996 and 0.994, respectively). To complement the biosorption, a UV-A-Fenton process was applied, and results showed a higher AR88 removal with (NTA) addition. Higher irradiance power favored the oxidation process with high Ф photodegradation value and low Electric Energy per Order ($$E_{\text{EO}}$$
E
EO
) and Specific Applied Energy ($$E_{\text{SAE}}$$

Abstract
Batik is well known as one of the unique identifiers of the Southeast Asian region. Several countries that still preserve the batik heritage are Malaysia, Indonesia, China and India. The Batik industry holds a significant place in Malaysia's craft-based industry. In Malaysia, batik motifs and patterns are mostly hand-drawn and painted directly on fabric, therefore, each one is unique. The players in the Batik industry are mostly small businesses and cottage industries, particularly in the states of Kelantan, Terengganu, Pahang, Sabah and Sarawak. However, their market growth and contribution are not synchronized with the treatment system. The wastewater generated by this industry rarely meets standard effluent requirements and regulations, thus worrying the authorities. Batik wastewater is categorized as one of the highly polluted wastewaters. The toxicity of pollutants from batik may reduce environmental quality and pose a risk to human health. Batik wastewater needs extensive treatment, since no complete and appropriate treatment has been applied for so many years in specific batik industries. This paper reviews the batik industry in Malaysia, its wastewater generation and the available current treatment practices. It discusses integrated treatments of coagulation-flocculation and phytoremediation technology as a batik wastewater treatment process with potential utility in the batik industry. This review may become part of the guidance for the entire batik industry, especially in Malaysia.

Chloride accumulation in aboveground biomass of three macrophytes (Phragmites australis, Juncus maritimus, and Typha latifolia) depending on their growth stages and salinity exposure: application for Cl - removal and phytodesalinization. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2022; 29:35284-35299. [PMID: 35060056 PMCID: PMC9076746 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-021-17591-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2020] [Accepted: 11/13/2021] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Anthropogenic activities can be the source of saline solid wastes that need to be treated to reduce their salt load to meet the purposes of reuse, valorization or storage. In this context, chloride remediation can be achieved using high-salt accumulating plants. However, there is very limited information on the comparative potential of different species in the same environment, and only scarce data concerning their efficiency as a function of growth stage. In order to rationalize these selection criteria, three macrophytes i.e., common reed (Phragmites australis), sea rush (Juncus maritimus), and cattail (Typha latifolia), were cultivated at two growth stages (6-months old and 1-year old) for 65 days in Cl- spiked substrates (from 0 up to 24 ‰ NaCl). The plants' survival and potential capacity for removal of Cl- from substrates and accumulation in shoots were investigated. For the three studied species, mature and juvenile plants display a high tolerance to salinity. However, mature specimens with higher shoot biomass and Cl- contents are capable of greater chloride removal than juvenile plants. The sole exception is P. australis which displays just the same phytoremediation potential for both mature and juvenile specimens. Moreover, P. australis has the lowest potential when compared with other species, being 1.5 and 3 times lower than for J. maritimus and T. latifolia. When considering the plant growth and the shoot biomass production, chloride removal rates from the substrate point that mature J. maritimus should preferentially be used to design an operational chloride remediation system. The results highlight the relevance of considering the growth stage of plants used for Cl- removal. HIGHLIGHTS: 1) Mature and juvenile specimens of J. maritimus, P. australis, and T. latifolia have high salinity tolerance in solid media spiked up to 24 ‰ NaCl. 2) Mature plants have generally better Cl- removal and phytoremediation performances than juvenile specimens. 3) J. maritimus is the most effective species for chloride phytoremediation with high survival and high Cl- sequestration in shoots. 4) T. latifolia has high Cl- removal in shoots and good remediation capacities but also shows sign of stress. 5) P. australis shows low Cl- sequestration and is a poor candidate for chloride remediation from substrate.

Abstract
The demand for innovative waste treatment techniques has arisen because of the establishment and operation of rigorous waste discharge guidelines into the environment. Due to the rapid increase in the human population, wastewater treatment is a procedure of increasing significance. As a result, wastewater treatment systems are intended to sustain high activities and densities of such microorganisms which meet the different purification requirements. The waste produced by the pharmaceutical industry, if not adequately treated, has harmful repercussions for the environment as well as public health. Bioremediation is an innovative and optimistic technology that can be used to remove and reduce heavy metals from polluted water and contaminated soil. Because of cost-effectiveness and environmental compatibility, bioremediation using microorganisms has an excellent potential for future development. A diverse range of microorganisms, including algae, fungi, yeasts, and bacteria, can function as biologically active methylators, capable of modifying toxic species. Microorganisms play a crucial role in heavy metal bioremediation. Nanotechnology may minimize industry expenses by producing environmentally friendly nanomaterials to alleviate these contaminants. The use of microorganisms in nanoparticle synthesis gives green biotechnology a positive impetus to cost reduction and sustainable production as a developing nanotechnology sector.

Abstract
Dye is one of the pollutants found in water bodies because of the increased growth of the textile industry. In this study, Scirpus grossus was planted inside a constructed wetland to treat mixed dye (methylene blue and methyl orange)-containing wastewater under batch and continuous modes. The plants were exposed to various concentrations (0, 50, 75, and 100 mg/L) of mixed dye for 72 days (with hydraulic retention time of 7 days for the continuous system). Biological oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand, total organic carbon, pH, temperature, ionic content, and plant growth parameters were measured. Results showed that S. grossus can withstand all the tested dye concentrations until the end of the treatment period. Color removal efficiencies of 86, 84, and 75% were obtained in batch mode, whereas 90%, 85%, and 79% were obtained in continuous mode for 50, 75, and 100 mg/L dye concentrations, respectively. Fourier-transform infrared analysis confirmed the transformation of dye compounds after treatment and scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis showed that most of the intermediate compounds were not absorbed into plants but adsorbed onto the surface of the root structure.

Abstract
The dye removal using phytoremediation has demonstrated its potential to degrade many recalcitrant dyes. The kinetic investigations for phytoremediation ability of Salvinia molesta Mitchell (S. molesta) were evaluated for Direct Red 28 (DR28) dye in the present research work. The potential of S. molesta was analysed at different pH and different initial dye concentrations. About 90 % of dye decolorization was achieved for 50 mg L-1 dye solution with 4 g of S. molesta plant at pH 6.5. The experimental results were evaluated with pseudo-first, pseudo-second and Elovich kinetic models. The validation indicated the most suitable curve with Pseudo-second order having the correlation value R2 ≥ 0.99. FTIR studies supported the phytoextraction of DR28 through functional group interaction between plant hairy roots and dye molecules. The results of the present studies suggests that S. molesta can be utilized for remediation of water bodies and wetlands contaminated with dye wastewater in natural conditions.

Abstract
Phytoremediation emerges as an innovative and eco-friendly technique to remediate textile dyes with the use of various categories of plants. In recent years, ornamental plants emerge as more attractive and effective substitute in comparison to edible plants for phytoremediation. Regardless of aesthetic value, some ornamental plants can be grown to remediate the sites contaminated with dyes, heavy metals, pesticides, or other organic compounds. In this review, we focus on pioneer research on synthetic dye removal using ornamental plants and evaluate the phytoremediation capability of ornamental plants for treatment of textile effluent. This paper also emphasized specific ornamental plants having high accumulation and tolerance ability for removal of dyes. The mechanisms explored for the phytoremediation of dyes by ornamental plants have also been explained. This review will also be helpful for researchers for exploring more new ornamental plants in phytoremediation technique.

Abstract
Azo dyes are highly toxic, which acts as a notable mutagen and carcinogen. This has a significant effect on human health, plants, animals, aquatic and terrestrial environments. Thus, the degradation of the azo dyes is exclusively studied using the conventional methods of which biodegradation is an eco-friendly approach. Hence, the present study is focused on the elucidation of reactive mixed azo dye degradation pathway using MBBR and laccase enzyme produced by an alkaliphilic bacterium P. mendocina. Synthetic wastewater treatment performed using MBBR was very effective which reduced the COD and BOD to 90 mg/L and 460 mg/L. The potential degrader P. mendocina was isolated and laccase enzyme was screened. Finally, the degradation pathway was elucidated. The in silico toxicity analysis predicted Reactive Red and Reactive Brown as developmental toxicants during Reactive Black as Developmental non-toxicant. Docking studies were performed to understand interaction of laccase with compounds evolved from dyes.

Microalgal biomass-based biofuels are a promising alternative to fossil fuels. Microalgal biofuels' major obstacles are the water and carbon sources for their cultivation and biomass harvest from the liquid medium. To date, an economically viable process is not available for algal based biofuels. The circular bioeconomy is an attractive concept for reuse, reduce, and recycle resources. The recovery of nutrients from waste and effluents by microalgae could significantly impact the escalating demands of energy and nutraceutical source to the growing population. Wastewaters from different sources are enriched with nutrients and carbon, and these resources can be recovered and utilized for the circular bioeconomy approach. However, the utilization of wastewaters and waste seems to be an essential strategy for mass cultivation of microalgae to minimizing freshwater consumption, carbon, nutrients cost, nitrogen, phosphorus removal, and other pollutants loads from wastewater and generating sustainable biomass for value addition for either biofuels or other chemicals. Hence, the amalgamation of wastewater treatment with the mass cultivation of microalgae improved the conventional treatment process and environmental impacts. This review provides complete information on the latest progress and developments of microalgae as potential biocatalyst for the remediation of wastewaters and waste carbon to recover resources through biomass with metabolites for various industrial applications and large-scale cultivation in wastewaters, and future perspectives are discussed.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2021; 286:117316.

Abstract
Six ecotypes of Typha domingensis Pers. Jahlar (E1), Sheikhupura (E2), Sahianwala (E3), Gatwala (E4), Treemu (E5) and Knotti (E6) from different ecological regions were collected to evaluate the leaf anatomical and biochemical attributes under different levels of salinity and nickel stress viz; L0 (control), L1 (100 mM + 50 mg kg-1), L2 (200 mM + 100 mg kg-1) and L3 (300 mM + 150 mg kg-1). Presence of salt and Ni in rooting medium consistently affected growth, anatomical and physio-biochemical attributes in all Typha ecotypes. Discrete anatomical modifications among ecotypes such as reduced leaf thickness, increased parenchyma area, metaxylem cell area, aerenchyma formation and improved metaxylem vessels were recorded with increasing dose of salt and Ni. The minimum anatomical damages were recorded in E1 and E6 ecotypes. In all ecotypes, progressive perturbations in ionic homeostasis (Na+, K+, Cl-, N) due to salt and metal toxicity were evident along with reduction in photosynthetic pigments. Maximum enhancement in Catalase (CAT), Superoxide dismutase (SOD), Peroxidase (POD) and modulated Malondialdehyde (MDA) activity was recorded in E1 and E6 as compared to other ecotypes. Accumulation of large amounts of metabolites such as total soluble sugars, total free amino acids content in Jahlar, Knotti, Treemu and Sahianawala ecotypes under different levels of salt and Ni prevented cellular damages in T. domingensis Pers. The correlation analysis exhibited a close relationship among different levels of salinity and Ni with various plant attributes. PCA-Biplot verified our correlational analysis among various attributes of Typha ecotypes. An obvious separation of Typha characters in response to different salinity and Ni levels was exhibited by PC1. We recommend that genetic potential of T. domingensis Pers. To grow under salt and Ni stresses must be investigated and used for phytoremediation and reclamation of contaminated soil.

Abstract
The potential of Iris pseudacorus and the associated periphytic biofilm for biodegradation of two common pharmaceutical contaminants (PCs) in urban wastewater was assessed individually and in consortium. An enhanced removal for sulfamethoxazole (SMX) was achieved in consortium (59%) compared to individual sets of I. pseudacorus (50%) and periphytic biofilm (7%) at concentration of 5 mg L-1. Conversely, individual sets of periphytic biofilm (77%) outperformed removal of doxylamine succinate (DOX) compared to individual sets of I. pseudacorus (59%) and consortium (67%) at concentration of 1 mg L-1. Enhanced relative abundance of microflora containing microalgae (Sellaphora, Achnanthidium), rhizobacteria (Acidibacter, Azoarcus, Thioalkalivibrio), and fungi (Serendipita) in periphytic biofilm was observed after treatment. SMX treatment for five days elevated cytochrome P450 enzymes' expressions, including aniline hydroxylase (48%) and aminopyrine N-demethylase (54%) in the periphytic biofilm. Nevertheless, I. pseudacorus showed 175% elevation of aniline hydroxylase along with other biotransformation enzymes, such as peroxidase (629%), glutathione S-transferase (514%), and dichloroindophenol reductase (840%). A floating bed phytoreactor planted with I. pseudacorus and the periphytic biofilm consortium removed 67% SMX and 72% DOX in secondary wastewater effluent. Thus, the implementation of this strategy in constructed wetland-based treatment could be beneficial for managing effluents containing PCs.

Abstract
Contamination of fluoroquinolones (FQs) are of emerging concerns because of their adverse effects on environment and humans. This study investigated the ecotoxicological effects, biodegradation, and multiple metabolic pathways of a frequently found FQ, enrofloxacin (ENR) by ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.). Key metabolic genes for driving the metabolism of ENR have been identified using transcriptome profiling of L. perenne and gene network analysis. Toxicity of ENR on ryegrass has been evaluated according to the morphological changes, lipid peroxidation content, and antioxidant enzymatic activities. Moreover, there was 94.33%, 71.58%, 57.22%, and 55.23% removal of 1, 10, 50 and 100 mg L-1 ENR, respectively, which was mainly achieved by biodegradation according to the mass balance. A biodegradation pathway has been proposed by incorporating mass spectrums of extracted ENR intermediates with their formation dynamics. Analysis of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and their network unraveled that the genes encoding monooxygenase, oxidative carboxylase, methyltransferase, lyase, hydroxylase, dehydrogenase, and peroxidase were the key functional genes. These enzymes can induce di/hydroxylation, decarboxylation, methylation, and bond and ring cleavage of ENR for its effective degradation. This study demonstrated that ryegrass can be used for efficient treatment of ENR polluted water and extended the understanding of the molecular mechanism of antibiotics' biodegradation in plants.

Abstract
Phytoremediation technology based on living green plants would clean up water pollution. Through hydroponic experiment, the effects of different concentration of 2, 4-dinitrophenol (2, 4-DNP) on the photosynthetic and chlorophyll fluorescence parameters of Salix babylonica, and the absorption and purification effect of S. babylonica on 2, 4-DNP were measured to explore the tolerance of S. babylonica to 2, 4-DNP and the feasibility to purify dinitrophenol waste water by it. The biomass, actual photochemical efficiency (PSII), net photosynthetic rate (Pn), photochemical quenching coefficient (qP), stomatal conductance (Gs), transpiration rate (Tr), maximum photochemical efficiency (Fv/Fm) and chlorophyll content of the S. babylonica showed downward trend with the increasing exposure concentrations of 2,4-DNP, but the intercellular CO2 concentration (Ci) appeared upward trend. Non-photochemical quenching coefficient (NPQ) increased at 5 mg L-1, then declined with the increase concentrations of 2, 4-DNP. In addition, the percent removal of 2, 4-DNP in 20 mg L-1 waste water was 91.4%. In conclusion, 2, 4-DNP significantly inhibits Pn of S. babylonica and the reduction of Pn was caused by decreasing Gs, carboxylation efficiency and chlorophyll content. When the concentration of 2, 4-DNP is not more than 20 mg L-1, S. babylonica can remove 2, 4-DNP efficiently.

Abstract
In this study, an electro-oxidation (EO) process using graphite electrodes as electrode pairs was used for the removal of chemical oxygen demand (COD), ammoniacal nitrogen (NH4+-N), and color from real textile printing wastewater. The effects of solution pH, sodium chloride (NaCl) dosage, sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), which is the oldest and still most important chlorine-based bleach, dosage, and oxidation time were investigated on the removal efficiencies. Operating conditions for the EO reactor were applied to current density 1 mA/cm2, distance between the electrodes: 2 cm, 150 min operation time, and stirring speed of 500 rpm. At optimum conditions: pH 9.5, applied current density 1 mA/cm2, NaCl dosage of 8 g/L, NaOCl dosage of 44.4 mg/L and 150 min electro-oxidation time, the obtained removal efficiencies were 86.5% and 91.1% for chemical oxygen demand (COD) and ammoniacal nitrogen, respectively. Efficiency was increased to 91.1% for ammoniacal nitrogen from 21.7% after applying EO combined with NaOCl addition compared to individual NaOCl addition.

Abstract
In the present study, methylene blue (MB) removal from aqueous solutions via the photocatalytic process using TiO2 as a catalyst in the presence of external ultra-violet light (UV) was investigated. The results of adsorption in the absence of UV radiation showed that adsorption reached an equilibrium state at 60 min. The experimental kinetic data were found to be well fitted by the pseudo-second-order model. Furthermore, the isotherm study suggested that dye uptake by TiO2 is a chemisorption process with a maximum retention capacity of 34.0 mg/g. The photodegradation of MB was then assessed under various experimental conditions. The related data showed that dye mineralization decreased when dye concentrations were increased and was favored at high pH values and low salt concentrations. The simultaneous presence of organic and inorganic pollution (Zinc) was also evaluated. The effect of the molar ratio Zn2+/MB+ in the solution at different pH values and NaCl concentrations was also monitored. The corresponding experimental results showed that at low values of Zn2+ in the solution (30 mg/L), the kinetic of the MB removal became faster until reaching an optimum at Zn2+/MB+ concentrations of 60/60 mg/L; it then slowed down for higher concentrations. The solutions’ carbon contents were measured during the degradation process and showed total mineralization after about 5 h for the optimal Zn2+/MB+ condition.

Abstract
Natural dyes have been used from ancient times for multiple purposes, most importantly in the field of textile dying. The increasing demand and excessive costs of natural dye extraction engendered the discovery of synthetic dyes from petrochemical compounds. Nowadays, they are dominating the textile market, with nearly 8 × 105 tons produced per year due to their wide range of color pigments and consistent coloration. Textile industries consume huge amounts of water in the dyeing processes, making it hard to treat the enormous quantities of this hazardous wastewater. Thus, they have harmful impacts when discharged in non-treated or partially treated forms in the environment (air, soil, plants and water), causing several human diseases. In the present work we focused on synthetic dyes. We started by studying their classification which depended on the nature of the manufactured fiber (cellulose, protein and synthetic fiber dyes). Then, we mentioned the characteristics of synthetic dyes, however, we focused more on their negative impacts on the ecosystem (soil, plants, water and air) and on humans. Lastly, we discussed the applied physical, chemical and biological strategies solely or in combination for textile dye wastewater treatments. Additionally, we described the newly established nanotechnology which achieves complete discharge decontamination.

Abstract
Immobilized fungal biomass (Aspergillus niger and Aspergillus flavus) was prepared and analysed for the simultaneous removal of Cu(II) ion and Reactive Green 6 dye from aqueous phase. Different characterization analysis was utilized to exploit the adsorption characteristics of fungal biomass. Batch biosorption tests, performed to investigate the factors influencing biosorption process inferred optimal values of 25 mg/L of adsorbate with equilibrium time of 60 min, 2.5 g of immobilized fungal biomass, temperature of 303 K and pH of 5.0 for the maximal removal of pollutants. The obtained experimental data was utilized to evaluate the kinetic, thermodynamic and equilibrium models. Langmuir isotherm model has higher correlation coefficient [Cu(II) ion = 0.8625 and RG 6 dye = 0.8575] with small values of errors (RMSE = 3.746 and SSE = 56.12 for Cu(II) ion; RMSE = 4.872 and SSE = 11.87 for RG 6 dye). Kinetic studies performed to evaluate the adsorption rate mechanism of this present study indicated that pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order kinetics to be most fitting model for removal of Cu(II) ions and Reactive green dye respectively. Thermodynamic analysis inferred the spontaneous, random, and exothermic nature of the biosorption process based on ΔGo, ΔHo, and ΔSo values respectively. The prepared biomass can be an alternative for the elimination of toxic pollutants from wastewater.

Abstract
Cadmium (Cd) is an unessential trace element in plants that is ubiquitous in the environment. Anthropogenic activities such as disposal of urban refuse, smelting, mining, metal manufacturing, and application of synthetic phosphate fertilizers enhance the concentration of Cd in the environment and are carcinogenic to human health. In this manuscript, we reviewed the sources of Cd contamination to the environment, soil factors affecting the Cd uptake, the dynamics of Cd in the soil rhizosphere, uptake mechanisms, translocation, and toxicity of Cd in plants. In crop plants, the toxicity of Cd reduces uptake and translocation of nutrients and water, increases oxidative damage, disrupts plant metabolism, and inhibits plant morphology and physiology. In addition, the defense mechanism in plants against Cd toxicity and potential remediation strategies, including the use of biochar, minerals nutrients, compost, organic manure, growth regulators, and hormones, and application of phytoremediation, bioremediation, and chemical methods are also highlighted in this review. This manuscript may help to determine the ecological importance of Cd stress in interdisciplinary studies and essential remediation strategies to overcome the contamination of Cd in agricultural soils.

Optimization of the process variables such as pH, temperature, dye concentration, incubation time, inoculum volume and dynamic incubating conditions for dye decolorization were performed using One Factor At a Time (OFAT) approach. Box- Behnken Design (BBD) of Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was further used to optimize the process variables. Decolorization rates of 98.8% for B-GDN, 96% for RP and 96.2% for RNB were observed after treating with A. baumannii for 48 h using the obtained design value. UV-Visible spectrophotometry and FT-IR spectral scan of dye and degraded metabolites confirmed that biodegradation had taken place. Further, the phytotoxicity evaluation was performed with Vigna radiata seeds and the degraded metabolites proved to be non-toxic. Docking studies were performed and it was found that there was significant binding affinity between the dyes and azoreductase enzyme of A. baumannii. Thus, the biodegradation of these reactive azo dyes was found to be a suitable alternative for the effective treatment of textile dyes.

Abstract
A recently isolated osmo-tolerant yeast Candida tropicalis A1, which could decolorize various azo dyes under high-salinity conditions, was systematically characterized in the present study. Stimulating dye-decolorization effectiveness and osmo-tolerance of the yeast by static magnetic field (SMF) was investigated and transcriptomic responses of the yeast to SMF was analyzed to propose possible mechanisms. The results demonstrated that the yeast A1 effectively decolorized (≥ 97.50% within 12 h) and detoxified (from high toxicity to low toxicity within 24 h) 70 mg/L Acid Red B (ARB) under the optimized conditions through a series of steps including naphthalene-amidine bond cleavage, reductive or oxidative deamination/desulfurization, open-loop of hydroxy-substituted naphthalene or benzene and TCA cycle. Moreover, dye decolorization performance and osmo-tolerance of the yeast A1 were further improved by 24.6 mT SMF. Genes encoding high-affinity hexose/glucose transporter proteins and NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase were up-regulated by 24.6 mT SMF, which might be responsible for the increase of dye decolorization. Significant up-regulation of glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and cell wall protein RHD3 suggested that osmo-tolerance was enhanced by 24.6 mT SMF through promoting production and intracellular accumulation of glycerol as compatible solute, as well as regulation of cell wall component. In conclusion, 24.6 mT SMF led to the up-regulation of related genes resulting in enhanced dye biodegradation efficiency and osmo-tolerance of the yeast A1.

Abstract
This paper aimed at implementing a treatment system for polluted water with textile dyes, starting with a photocatalytic decomposition process using sunlight as a source of energy and continuing with a bacterial biodegradation process, in order to reach degradation percentages higher than those obtained using only one of the processes mentioned above. When water treatment with the dye in the combined system was over, an acute ecotoxicity test was performed to make sure that toxic metabolites were not produced due to biodegradation. Solophenyl Blue azoic dye, and Erionyl Blue and Terasil Blue anthraquinone dye-colored solutions were treated with the Pd/Al

catalyst in a solar collector for the photocatalytic process. On the other hand, the waste dye, which was obtained from photocatalysis with a bacterial consortium from polluted areas by metals and hydrocarbons in aerobic conditions, was inoculated for biodegradation. Biodegradation was obtained for the dyes after both processes as 90.91% for the Solophenyl Blue azoic dye, and 87.80% and 87.94%, respectively, for the Erionyl Blue and Terasil Blue anthraquinone dyes. After the degradation processes, it was proven, via an ecotoxicity test with

Abstract
Phytoremediation is one of the biological approaches for remediating textile dyeing effluents. The objective of this study is the use of Pistia stratiotes, an aquatic macrophyte, which was found to degrade the maximum of 83% of mixed azo dye. A phytoreactor was designed and constructed to scale up the process of phytoremediation by P. stratiotes to treat 40 mg/l of synthetic textile effluent. Continuous flow phytoreactor fed with 40 mg/l (cycle 1) which showed maximum decolorization of 84%, COD removal was about 61%, BOD which was reduced up to 71.9%, and TDS removal was about 72% respectively. Further to remove the residual color and toxic effects of the dyes, Phycoremediation was followed for the mixed azo dyes using the microalgae Chlorella vulgaris which showed a maximum decolorization of 99% in the batch study and 74% in the scale-up study where the treated effluent was at the most minimal discharge. Phytotoxicity tests showed 80% of germination in treated effluent, and the plants in untreated wastewater had inhibited growth that indicates only 30% of germination. Such combined biological treatment techniques were put forward to be the most eco-friendly technology, which is cost-effective and attain zero discharge of the textile effluent.

Abstract
Pharmaceutical contaminants in environment induce unexpected effects on ecological systems and human; thus, development of efficient technologies for their removal is immensely necessary. In this study, biodegradation and metabolic fate of a frequently found pharmaceutical contaminant, doxylamine by Typha angustifolia and Ipomoea aquatica was investigated. Microbial community of the plant rhizosphere has been identified to understand the important roles of the functional microbes. The plants reduced 48-80.5 % of doxylamine through hydrolysis/dehydroxylation and carbonylation/decarbonylation. A constructed phytobed co-planted with T. angustifolia and I. aquatica removed 77.3 %, 100 %, 83.67 %, and 61.13 % of chemical oxygen demand, total nitrogen, total phosphorus, and doxylamine respectively from real wastewater. High-throughput sequencing of soil and rhizosphere indicated that the phyla Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, Planctomycetes, Actinobacteria, and Cyanobacteria dominated the microbial communities of the phytobed. Current study has demonstrated the applicability of the developed phytobeds for the treatment of doxylamine from municipal wastewater and provide a comprehensive understanding of its metabolism through plant and its rhizospheric microbial communities.

Abstract
Phytoremediation is a promising green technology for the remediation of various industrial effluents. Notably, aquatic plants are widely applied to remove dyes and toxic metals from polluted environments. In the present study, the phytoremediation potency of aquatic macrophytes such as Pistia stratiotes L, Salvinia adnata Desv, and Hydrilla verticillata (L.f) Royle were assessed based on the removal capability of pollutants from dyeing effluent. Physicochemical characterizations were carried out for industrial wastewater collected from a cotton material dyeing unit located in the Karur District of Tamilnadu, India. The physicochemical characteristics of the dyeing effluent, such as color, odor, pH, total dissolved solids (TDS), alkalinity, acidity, chloride, sulfate, phosphate, nitrate, chemical oxygen demand (COD), fluoride, and toxic metal levels were determined. The core parameters such as total dissolved solid (TDS), chemical oxygen demand (COD), and chloride level were determined and found to be 6500 mg/L, 2400 mg/L, and 2050 mg/L, respectively, which exceeded the regulatory limit prescribed by the Central Pollution Control Board of India. The levels of toxic metals such as Hg, Ni, and Zn were under the acceptable concentration but Cr and Pb levels in the dyeing effluent were a little bit higher. The effluent was subjected to treatment with Pistia stratiotes L, Salvinia adnata Desv and Hydrilla verticillata (L.f) Royle separately. After the treatment, the toxic metal results were recorded as below detectable levels and the same results were obtained for all three aquatic plants samples used for treatment. Among the three plants, P. stratiotes L efficiently removed 86% of color, 66% of TDS, 77% of COD, and 61.33% of chloride. The variation in phytochemicals of the macrophytes was studied before and after treatment using GC–MS which revealed the reduction of ascorbic acid in the plant samples. The toxic effect of treated effluent was investigated by irrigating an ornamental plant, Impatiens balsamina L. The plant biomass P. stratiotes L obtained after the treatment process was subjected to manure production and its nutrient quality was proved, which can be applied as a soil conditioner. Among the aquatic plants, the results of P. stratiotes L indicated a higher remediation potential, which can be used as an ecologically benign method for treatment of industrial effluents and water bodies contaminated with dyeing effluents.
