Oh H, Park HY, Kim JI, Lee BJ, Choi JH, Hur J. Enhancing machine learning models for total organic carbon prediction by integrating geospatial parameters in river watersheds. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 943:173743. [PMID: 38848906 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.173743] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2024] [Revised: 06/01/2024] [Accepted: 06/01/2024] [Indexed: 06/09/2024]
Abstract
This study utilizes machine learning (ML) algorithms to develop a robust total organic carbon (TOC) prediction model for river waters in the Geumho River sub-basins, South Korea, considering both non-rain and rain events. The model incorporates geospatial parameters such as land use, slope, flow rate, and basic water quality metrics including biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP), and suspended solids (SS). A key aspect of this research is examining how land use information enhances the model's predictive accuracy. We compared two ML algorithms-extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) and deep neural networks (DNN)-with a traditional multiple linear regression (MLR) approach. XGBoost outperformed the others, achieving an R2 value between 0.61 and 0.68 in the test dataset and demonstrating significant improvement during rain events with an R2 of 0.77 when including land use data. In contrast, this enhancement was not observed with the MLR model. Feature importance analysis using Shapley values highlighted COD as the primary predictor for non-rain events, while during rain events, COD, TP, TN, SS and agricultural land collectively influenced TOC levels. This study significantly advances understanding of TOC variability across different land use scenarios in river systems and underscores the importance of integrating geospatial and water quality parameters to enhance TOC prediction, particularly during rain events. This methodology provides a valuable framework for developing river management strategies and monitoring long-term TOC trends, especially in scenarios with gaps in essential monitoring data.

Tracing sources of dissolved organic matter along the terrestrial-aquatic continuum in the Ore Mountains, Germany. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 943:173807. [PMID: 38852873 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.173807] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2024] [Revised: 06/03/2024] [Accepted: 06/04/2024] [Indexed: 06/11/2024]
Abstract
There is growing concern about the rising levels of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in surface waters across the Northern hemisphere. However, only limited research has been conducted to unveil its precise origin. Compositional changes along terrestrial-aquatic pathways can help determine the terrestrial sources of DOM in streams. Stream water, soil water and soil horizons were sampled at four sites representing typical settings within a forested catchment in the Ore Mountains (Erzgebirge, Germany) from winter 2020 to spring 2022. The samples were analyzed using pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS). The resulting data were successfully subjected to semi-automatic processing of the molecular composition of DOM, reaching a percentage of identified peaks up to 98 %. Principal component analysis (PCA) and cluster analyses were carried out to identify distinct differences between DOM from the potential sources and in the streams. According to the PCA, organic soil horizons, soil water, and stream water samples could be clearly distinguished. Cluster analysis revealed that soil water DOM at all depths of Peats and deeper horizons of the Peaty Gleysols contributed the most to DOM in the stream section dominated by organic soils. In areas dominated by mineral soils, stream DOM resembled the DOM from the deeper mineral horizons of Cambisols and Podzols. Overall, our results suggested that most of the DOM exported from the catchment was derived from deeper mineral soil horizons, with little contribution of DOM derived from organic soils. Therefore, DOM fingerprint analysis of in-situ soil water proved to be a promising approach for tracing back the main sources of stream water DOM.

Abstract
The depth-dependent dynamics of dissolved organic matter (DOM) structure and humification in an artificial lake limits the understanding of lake eutrophication and carbon cycling. Using fluorescence regional integration (FRI) and parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC) models to analyze the 3D fluorescence spectroscopy dataset, we revealed the depth-dependent structure and vertical distribution of DOM in the estuarine and center regions of Lake Hongfeng. The percentage fluorescence response (Pi,n) showed humic acid is an important part of DOM in Lake Hongfeng. Fluorescence results show that the fulvic-like and protein-like materials in HF1-DOM located at the estuarine position showed greater variation in the middle stage, probably due to human influence and sediment suspension. Fluorescence index (PI+II+IV,n/PIII+V,n and FIC4/FIC3) can be used to indicate the degree of humification of DOM in artificial lakes. Results of each index show that the estuary is more affected by human activities, and the humification degree is significantly lower than that of the center of the lake. The evaluation index system of the humification degree of artificial lake established in this study can effectively predict the eutrophication state of the typical area of artificial lake and deeply understand the possible important influence of human activities on the carbon cycle of lake.

Abstract
The persistence of dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays a crucial role in the cycling and distribution of carbon and nutrients. Nonetheless, our understanding of how environmental alterations affect the persistence of sedimentary DOM remains incomplete. Excitation Emission Fluorescence Matrix-Parallel Factor Analysis (EEM-PARAFAC) was used to examine the fluorescence and compositional characteristics of hydrophilic and hydrophobic DOM (separated using XAD-8 resin) within sediments from twelve lakes and reservoirs. Fluorescence analysis indicated that DOM persistence is dependent on the proportions of the three components derived from PARAFAC. The Mantel test showed that climatic factors had the most significant impact on DOM persistence (Mantel's r = 0.46-0.54, Mantel's p = 0.001-0.007), while anthropogenic (Mantel's r = 0.24-0.32, Mantel's p = 0.03-0.05) and hydrological factors (Mantel's r = 0.03-0.22, Mantel's p = 0.06-0.40) had a somewhat lesser influence. Environmental changes resulted in a consistent decline in DOM persistence from Northeast to Southwest China, accompanied by an increase in gross primary productivity (GPP). Reduced DOM persistence due to climate, hydrological, and anthropogenic factors may lead to elevated concentrations of total phosphorus (TP), contributing to deteriorating water quality and events such as algal blooms. The decline in water quality due to reduced DOM persistence in lakes with high GPP can exacerbate the transition from carbon sinks to carbon sources. Consequently, the persistence of sedimentary DOM significantly influences nutrient and carbon cycling in lakes. Investigating DOM persistence in lakes across diverse geographic locations offers a new perspective on lake eutrophication and carbon emissions. Furthermore, it is crucial to develop targeted recommendations for lake restoration and management.

Insight into spatial variations of DOM fractions and its interactions with microbial communities of shallow groundwater in a mesoscale lowland river watershed. WATER RESEARCH 2024; 258:121797. [PMID: 38781623 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2024.121797] [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: 03/20/2024] [Revised: 05/15/2024] [Accepted: 05/17/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays a crucial role in driving biogeochemical processes and determining water quality in shallow groundwater systems, where DOM could be susceptible to dynamic influences of surface water influx. This study employed fluorescence excitation-emission matrix (EEM) spectroscopy combined with principal component coefficients, parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC), co-occurrence network analysis and structural equation modeling (SEM) to examine changes of DOM fractions from surface water to shallow groundwater in a mesoscale lowland river basin. Combining stable isotope and hydrochemical parameters, except for surface water (SW), two groups of groundwater samples were defined, namely, deeply influenced by surface water (IGW) and groundwater nearly non-influenced by surface water (UGW), which were 50.34 % and 19.39 % recharged by surface water, respectively. According to principal component coefficients, reassembled EEM data of these categories highlighted variations of the tyrosine-like peak in DOM. EEMs coupled with PARAFAC extracted five components (C1-C5), i.e. C1, protein-like substances, C2 and C4, humic-like substances, and C3 and C5, microbial-related substances. The abundance of the protein-like was SW > IGW > UGW, while the order of the humic-like was opposite. The bacterial communities exhibited an obvious cluster across three regions, which hinted their sensitivity to variations in environmental conditions. Based on co-occurrence, SW represented the highest connectivity between bacterial OTUs and DOM fractions, followed by IGW and UGW. SEM revealed that microbial activities increased bioavailability of the humic-like in the SW and IGW, whereas microbial compositions promoted the evolution of humic-like substances in the UGW. Generally, these results could be conducive to discern dissimilarity in DOM fractions across surface water and shallow groundwater, and further trace their interactions in the river watershed.

Abstract
This research delves into the dynamic interplay between urbanization and the characteristics of Dissolved Organic Matter (DOM) in the Anyang River, particularly under the stress of torrential rain. The motivation stems from a critical need to decipher how urban landscapes influence water quality, focusing on the intricate transformations and movements of DOM. Employing advanced fluorescence spectroscopy techniques like Excitation-Emission Matrices (EEM) and Parallel Factor Analysis (PARAFAC), the study meticulously differentiates DOM compositions in urban and agricultural settings. It unveils a pronounced distinction, with urban streams showing elevated proteinaceous DOM from wastewater, contrasting with the humic substances prevalent in agricultural runoff. The analysis also captures how intense rainfall events catalyze significant shifts in DOM profiles, thereby emphasizing the need for tailored water quality management strategies in urbanized catchments. This comprehensive approach not only bridges gaps in understanding the urban impact on riverine ecosystems but also sets a foundation for future research and policy development in the face of escalating environmental changes.

Abstract
Total solids (TS) content may provide a regulatory strategy for optimizing anaerobic digestion enhanced by high-temperature thermal hydrolysis, but the role of TS content is not yet clear. In this study, the effect of TS content on the high-temperature thermal hydrolysis and anaerobic digestion of sludge and its mechanism were investigated. The results showed that increasing the TS content from 2% to 8% increased the sludge solubility and methane production potential, reaching peak values of 26.6% and 336 ± 6 mL/g volatile solids (VS), respectively. With a further increase in TS content to 12%, the strong Maillard reaction increased the aromaticity and structural stability of extracellular polymer substances, decreasing sludge solubility to 18.6%. Furthermore, the decrease in sludge biodegradability and the formation of inhibitory by-products resulted in a reduction in methane production to 272 ± 4 mL/g VS. This article provides a new perspective to understand the role of TS content in the thermal hydrolysis of sludge and a novel approach to regulate the Maillard reaction.

Abstract
Despite numerous studies investigating the occurrence and fate of microplastics, no effort has been devoted toward exploring the characteristics of dissolved organic matter (DOM) leached from face masks mainly made of plastics and additives used in large quantities during the COVID-19 pandemic. By using FTIR, UV-vis, fluorescence EEM coupling with FRI and PARAFAC, and kinetic models of leaching experiments, we explored the leaching behaviors of face mask-derived DOM (FM-DOM) from commonly used face masks including N95, KN95, medical surgical masks, etc. The concentration of FM-DOM increased quickly at early 0-48 h and reached equilibrium at about 48 h measured in terms of dissolved organic carbon and fluorescence intensity. The protein-like materials ranged from 80.32 % to 89.40 % of percentage fluorescence response (Pi,n) were dominant in four types of FM-DOM analyzed by fluorescence EEM-FRI during the leaching experiments from 1 to 360 h. Four fluorescent components were identified, which included tryptophan-like components, tyrosine-like components, microbial protein-like components, and fulvic-like components with fluorescence EEM-PARAFAC models. The multi-order kinetic model (Radj2 0.975-0.999) fitted better than the zero-order and first-order kinetic model (Radj2 0.936-0.982) for all PARAFAC components of FM-DOM based on equations derived by pseudo kinetic models. The leaching rate constants (kn) ranged from 0.058 to 30.938 and the half-life times (T1/2) ranged from 2.73 to 24.87 h for four FM-DOM samples, following the solubility order of fulvic-like components (C4) > microbial protein-like components (C3) > tryptophan-like components (C1) > tyrosine-like components (C2) for FM-DOM from four types of face masks during the leaching experiment from 0 to 360 h. These novel findings will contribute to the understanding of the underappreciated environment impact of face masks in aquatic ecosystems.

Characteristics of the presence and migration patterns of DOM between ice and water in the cold and arid Daihai Lake. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 920:170876.

Abstract
Seasonal ice cover plays a crucial role in shaping the physical characteristics of lakes in cold and arid regions. Moreover, the ice significantly affects the level and quality of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in the water column. We utilized spectroscopy and mass spectrometry to analyze the molecular composition and distribution of DOM in ice cores and under-ice water in Daihai Lake. We identified the main environmental factors affecting DOM migration through structural equation modelling (SEM). The freezing process created a repulsive effect on DOM, with water samples demonstrating a greater DOM content than ice. The dominant part of the DOM in the ice cores was mainly comprised of protein-like materials (71.45 %), whereas water consisted of humus-like materials (54.81 %). The average molecular weight of the ice cover DOM (m/z = 396.77) was smaller than in the under-ice water (m/z = 405.42). While low-molecular and low-aromatic protein-like material tended to be trapped in the ice layer during ice formation, large-molecular and highly aromatic humic substances were more easily expelled into the water. Interestingly, condensed aromatic hydrocarbons were found to occur less frequently in the ice phase (11 %) compared to the aqueous phase (13 %). Both the lipid and protein/aliphatic compound structures exhibited slightly higher ratios in the ice (6 % and 8 %, respectively) than in water (1 % and 5 %, respectively). SEM between the ice cover environment and DOM indicated that the ice can influence the distribution pattern of DOM through the regulation of internal solute factors and other chemicals. The nature of the DOM and the rate of ice growth also play critical roles in determining the distribution mechanism of DOM for ice and water. The pollutant distribution characteristics and migration patterns between ice and water are essential for comprehending environmental water pollution and promoting pollution management and protection measures in cold region lakes.

Abstract
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays an essential role in many geochemical processes, however its complexity, chemical diversity, and molecular composition are poorly understood. Soil samples were collected from 500 vegetable fields in administrative regions of mainland China, of which 122 were selected for further investigation. DOM properties were characterized by three-dimensional excitation-emission matrix (3D-EEM) fluorescence spectroscopy and Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FTICR-MS) (field intensity is 15 Tesla). Our results indicated that the main constituents were UVA humic-like substances, humic-like substances, fulvic acid-like substances, and tyrosine-like substances. A total of 10,989 molecular formulae with a mass range of 100.04 to 799.59 Da were detected, covering the mass spectrometric information of the soil samples from 27 different regions. CHO and CHON molecules were dominant in DOM, whereas lignin, tannins, and aromatic substances served as the main components. The results of cluster analysis revealed that the soil properties in Jiangxi Province were considerably different from those in other regions. The key backgrounds of the DOM molecular characteristics in the vegetable-field soil samples across mainland China were provided at the molecular level, with large abundance and great variability.

Abstract
Phenol-rich wine grape pomace (WGP) improves the conversion of pig manure (PM) into humic acid (HA) during composting. However, the impact of using combinations of Fe2O3 and biochar known to promote compost maturation remains uncertain. This research explored the individual and combined influence of biochar and Fe2O3 during the co-composting of PM and WGP. The findings revealed that Fe2O3 boosts microbial network symbiosis (3233 links), augments the HA yield to 3.38 by promoting polysaccharide C-O stretching, and improves the germination index to 124.82 %. Limited microbial interactions, increased by biochar, resulted in a lower HA yield (2.50). However, the combination weakened the stretching of aromatics and quinones, which contribute to the formation of HA, resulting in reduced the humification to 2.73. In addition, Bacillus and Actinomadura were identified as pivotal factors affecting HA content. This study highlights Fe2O3 and biochar's roles in phenol-rich compost humification, but combined use reduces efficacy.

Abstract
Due to the combined effect of sluices and sea tide, the sluice-controlled coastal plain river would be characterized by both trophic state and salinity gradients, affecting the spatiotemporal optical properties of dissolved organic matter (DOM). In this study, we investigated the spatiotemporal variation of water quality parameters and optical properties of DOM in the Haihe River, a representative sluice-controlled coastal plain river in Tianjin, China. A significant salinity gradient and four trophic states were observed in the water body of the Haihe River. Two humic- and one protein-like substances were identified from the DOM by the three-dimensional fluorescence spectra combined with the parallel factor (PARAFAC) analysis. Pearson's correlation analysis and redundancy analysis (RDA) showed that the salinity significantly affected the abundance of chromophoric DOM (CDOM) but did not cause significant changes in the fluorescence optical characteristics. In addition, the effect of Trophic state index (TSI) on the CDOM abundance was greater than that on the fluorescence intensity of fluorescent dissolved organic matter (FDOM). In the water body with both salinity and trophic state gradients, TSI posed a greater influence than salinity on the CDOM abundance. Our results fill the research gap in spatiotemporal DOM characteristics and water quality variation in water bodies with both salinity and trophic state gradients. These results are beneficial for clarifying the joint influence of saline intrusion and sluices on the DOM characteristics and water quality in sluice-controlled coastal plain rivers.

Stress response and signalling of a low-temperature bioaugmentation system in decentralized wastewater treatment: Degradation characteristics, community structure, and bioaugmented mechanisms.

Abstract
Low temperatures present challenges for stable wastewater treatment operations in cold regions. Low-temperature effective microorganisms (LTEM) were added as a bioaugmentation strategy at a decentralized treatment facility to improve performance. The effects of a low-temperature bioaugmentation system (LTBS) with LTEM at low temperatures (4 °C) on organic pollutant performance, microbial community changes, and the metabolic pathways of functional genes and functional enzymes were studied. To explore the bioaugmentation mechanism of LTBS based on stress response and signalling. The results showed that the start-up time of the LTBS (S2) with LTEM was shorter (8 days) and that it removed COD and NH4+-N at higher rates (87 % and 72 %, respectively) at 4 °C. LTEM effectively degraded complex macromolecular organics into small molecular organics, and decomposing sludge flocs and the changing the extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) structure removed more organics and nitrogen. LTEM and local microbial communities (nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria) improved the ability of organic matter degradation and denitrification of the LTBS and formed a core microbial community dominated by LTEM (Bacillus and Pseudomonas). Finally, based on the functional enzymes and metabolic pathways of the LTBS, a low-temperature strengthening mechanism consisting of 6 cold stress responses and signal pathways under low temperatures was formed. This study demonstrated that the LTEM-dominated LTBS could provide an engineering alternative for future decentralized wastewater treatment in cold regions.

Abstract
The sources and properties of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in two lakes with different non-point source inputs were investigated by combining conventional three-dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy methods with a self-organizing map (SOM). To assess the DOM humification level, the representative neurons 1, 11, 25, and 36 were assessed. The SOM model showed that the DOM humification level of the Gaotang Lake (GT) which has a mainly agricultural non-point source input was significantly higher than that of the Yaogao Reservoir (YG) which has a mainly terrestrial source input (P < 0.01). The GT DOM mainly came from factors such as agricultural-related farm compost and decaying plants, while the YG DOM originated from human activities around the lake. The source characteristics of the YG DOM are obvious, with a high level of biological activity. Five representative areas in the fluorescence regional integral (FRI) were compared. The comparison showed that during the flat water period, the GT water column showed more terrestrial characteristics, even though the humus-like fractions in the DOM of both lakes were derived from microbial decomposition. Principal component analysis (PCA) showed that the agricultural lake water DOM (GT) was dominated by humus components, while the urban lake water DOM (YG) was dominated by authigenic sources.

Abstract
Biochar (BC) has been widely applied in the remediation of chlorophenols (CPs) from contaminated sites in which the role and mechanisms of BC dissolved organic matter (BDOM), as a crucial component of BC, with CPs are largely unknown and thus need to be investigated. In this study, DOM was derived from peanut hulls (PDOM) and corn stalks (CDOM) as BC sources, and the interactions between PDOM/CDOM and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (TCP) were analysed using excitation-emission matrix spectroscopy (EEM) in combination with multiple models. EEM combined with fluorescence region integration (EEM-FRI) indicated that humic-like materials were the major materials of both PDOM and CDOM (percentage fluorescence response Ri,n > 60%), and CDOM contained more protein- and fulvic-like materials than PDOM. Based on EEM in combination with parallel factor analysis (EEM-PARAFAC), 4 components were obtained, and the percentage decrease in maximum fluorescence intensities (Fmax) showed that the main components interacting with TCP in PDOM/CDOM were protein- and fulvic-like components (> 25%). Moreover, the modified Stern-Volmer model was used to calculate the stability constants (Log KTCP) of PDOM/CDOM and TCP for the first time, and the mechanism of static quenching was dominant for interacting with TCP in PDOM (Log KTCP: 4.36-4.65) and CDOM (Log KTCP: 3.53-4.73). Furthermore, the sequential TCP binding of fluorescent components in BDOM generally followed the order of protein-like → short-wavelength fulvic-like → long-wavelength fulvic-like → humic-like components. These findings will provide a basis for screening biochar as a functional material for CP remediation applications and for understanding the environmental chemical behaviour of leached DOM during biochar application.

Abstract
The pollution or eutrophication affected by dissolved organic matter (DOM) composition and sources of inland waters had attracted concerns from the public and government in China. Combined with remote sensing techniques, the fluorescent DOM (FDOM) parameters accounted for the important part of optical constituent as chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM) was a useful tool to trace relative DOM sources and assess the trophic states for large-scale regions comprehensively and timely. Here, the objective of this research is to calibrate and validate a general model based on Landsat 8 OLI product embedded in Google Earth Engine (GEE) for deriving humification index (HIX) based on EEMs in lakes across China. The Landsat surface reflectance was matched with 1150 pairs fieldtrip samples and the nine sensitive spectral variables with good correlation with HIX were selected as the inputs in machine learning methods. The calibration of XGBoost model (R2 = 0.86, RMSE = 0.29) outperformed other models. Our results indicated that the entire dataset of HIX has a strong association with Landsat reflectance, yielding low root mean square error between measured and predicted HIX (R2 = 0.81, RMSE = 0.42) for lakes in China. Finally, the optimal XGBoost model was used to calculate the spatial distribution of HIX of 2015 and 2020 in typical lakes selected from the Report on the State of the Ecology and Environment in China. The significant decreasing of HIX from 2015 to 2020 with trophic states showed positive control of humification level of lakes based on the published document of Action plan for prevention and control of water pollution in 2015 of China. The calibrated model would greatly facilitate FDOM monitoring in lakes, and provide indicators for relative DOM sources to evaluate the impact of water protection measures or human disturbance effect from Covid-19 lockdown, and offer the government supervision to improve the water quality management for lake ecosystems.

Abstract
Dissolved organic matter (DOM), the primary participant of carbon and nitrogen cycle, has a great impact on the behavior and fate of organic pollutants and heavy metals in eutrophic lakes. The dynamic spectral properties of DOM fractions were revealed in an aquatic-terrestrial ecotone under the different types of land use. Composite soil samples of different depths (0-20, 20-40 and 40-60 cm) were collected from four different land uses along a disturbed-impact gradient in Taihu Lake, China, i.e., grassland (GRL), forest land (FOL), paddy field (PAF), and vegetable field (VEF). DOM mainly consisted of tyrosine-like material (TYLF), tryptophan-like material (TRLF), microbial humic-like material (MHLF), fulvic-like material (FLF) and humic-like material (HLF) within all soil profiles, where TRLF was the dominant component (61.30 %) using synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy (SFS) combined with principal component analysis and Gaussian band fitting. Based on two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy with SFS and Fourier transform infrared, the variation order of DOM fractions was FLF → MHLF → HLF → TRLF → TYLF within the GRL soil profile, and MHLF exhibited an oppositive change with aliphatic OH and amide I in protein. The order of DOM fractions was MHLF → FLF → HLF → TYLF → TRLF within the FOL soil profile, and the change trend of MHLF remained oppositive with aliphatic OH and CO in ester. The order of DOM within the PAF soil profile fractions was TRLF → MHLF → HLF → TYLF → FLF, and changing trends of TYLF were oppositive to aliphatic OH, CH bending vibration, CH bending vibration and CO in ester. The order of DOM fractions was HLF → TYLF → TRLF → FLF → MHLF within the VEF soil profile, where the changing trend TYLF remained oppositive to aliphatic OH, CH deformations in lignin and aliphatic group and amide I in protein. This study may provide important support for alleviating lake water eutrophication or pollution.

Abstract
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) in aquatic environment distinctly affects the behavior and fate of heavy metals via complexation, while the interfacial mechanisms and processes are still lacking in detail. Here, Cu (II) binding characteristics of DOM originated from hilly (NDOM), rural (RDOM) and urban (UDOM) regions in an urbanized river was explored by fluorescence excitation-emission matrix spectroscopy (EEM) combined with principal component coefficients, parallel factor analyses (PARAFAC), moving-window two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (MW2DCOS) and structural equation modeling (SEM). Eight components were extracted from the titrants through EEM-PARAFAC, i.e., phenol-like substance (C1), tyrosine-like substance (C2), visible tryptophan-like substance (C3), ultraviolet tryptophan-like substance (C4), recent biological production (C5), wastewater-derived organic matter (C6), microbial humic-like substance (C7) and fulvic-like substance (C8). Interestingly, NDOM only contained C1, C3, C5 and C8, while nearly all components were found in RDOM (except for C2) and UDOM (except for C4). The f value of C1 (1.239) in NDOM was much higher than those in RDOM (0.134) and UDOM (0.115), so was of C8. It indicated that phenol-like and fulvic-like derived from autochthonous sources exhibited great binding ratios in the complexation with Cu (II). Moreover, C3 and C5 from UDOM exhibited higher f values (0.591 and 1.983) than those from NDOM and RDOM, suggesting that Cu (II) has a great binding capacity on protein-like from domestic and industrial wastewater. The MW2DCOS revealed that phenol-like and protein-like in NDOM and RDOM were essential for the binding of 160 μmol L-1 Cu (II), whereas fulvic-like in NDOM and UDOM could react significantly with 10 μmol L-1 Cu (II). Based on SEM, Cu (II) concentration had a negative direct effect on the fluorescence intensity of C7 or C8, whereas it showed an indirect positive effect on C7 or C8 through influencing C5, so was C6. It suggested that Cu (II) showed an indirect positive effect on the C8. This study might present a further comprehend of the environmental behaviors of Cu (II) in rivers.

Chen S, Li D, He H, Zhang Q, Lu H, Xue L, Feng Y, Sun H. Substituting urea with biogas slurry and hydrothermal carbonization aqueous product could decrease NH 3 volatilization and increase soil DOM in wheat growth cycle. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2022; 214:113997. [PMID: 35934142 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2022.113997] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2022] [Revised: 07/19/2022] [Accepted: 07/25/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Biogas slurry (BS) and hydrothermal carbonization aqueous products (HAP), which are rich in nitrogen (N) and dissolved organic matter (DOM), can be used as organic fertilizer to substitute inorganic N fertilizer. To evaluate the effects of co-application of BS and HAP on the ammonia (NH3) volatilization and soil DOM content in wheat growth season, we compared six treatments that substituting 50%, 75%, and 100% of urea-N with BS plus HAP at low (L) or high (H) ratio, named BCL50, BCL75, BCL100, BCH50, BCH75, BCH100, respectively. Meanwhile, urea alone treatment was set as the control (CKU). The results showed that both BCL and BCH treatments significantly mitigate the NH3 volatilizations by 9.1%-45.6% in comparison with CKU (P < 0.05), whose effects were correlated with soil NH4+-N content. In addition, the decrease in soil urease activity contributed to the lower NH3 volatilization following application of BS plus HAP. Notably, BS plus HAP applications increased the microbial byproduct- and humic acid-like substances in soil by 9.9%-74.5% and 100.7%-451.9%, respectively. Consequently, BS and HAP amended treatments significantly increased soil humification index and DOM content by 13.7%-41.2% and 38.4%-158.7%, respectively (P < 0.05). This study suggested that BS and HAP could be co-applied into agricultural soil as a potential alternative of inorganic fertilizer N, which can decrease NH3 loss but increase soil fertility.

Abstract
Fulvic acid which could govern the environmental geochemistry behavior of heavy metals is considered as the eco-friendly substances for controlling heavy metal pollutants in environment. Knowledge on the individual fulvic acid ligand is crucial to characterize the effect of fulvic acid on the migration and toxicity of metal pollutants. Herein, fulvic acid substances were analyzed by fluorescence quenching associated with parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC). Three components were identified based on PARAFAC. Furthermore, two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2DCOS) associated with complexation model were used to elucidate the Cd(II)- and Cu(II)-binding characteristics of the individual fulvic acid ligand. The Cd(II)- and Cu(II)-binding capability and speed of different fulvic acid ligands were revealed and theoretical guidance and technical support were provided for the practical application. The Cd(II) contaminated soil could be amended with high fulvic acid ligands A1 and Y2 containing composting products and the Cu(II) contaminated soil could be amended with high fulvic acid ligands Y1, T1 and A1 containing composting products to control the pollution and improve the soil condition. Based on these excellent results, the different fulvic acid ligands-contaminants-binding properties was characterized for the theoretical supporting of environmental pollution control.

Abstract
Over the last 30 years, the optical property community has shifted from conducting dissolved organic matter (DOM) measurements on new complex mixtures in natural and engineered systems to furthering ecosystem understanding in the context of past, present, and future carbon (C) cycling regimes. However, the appropriate use of optical properties to understand DOM behavior in complex biogeochemical systems is of recent debate. This critical review provides an extensive survey of DOM optical property literature across atmospheric, marine, and terrestrial biospheres using a categorical approach that probes each biosphere and its subdivisions. Using this approach, a rubric of ecosystem variables, such as productive nature, C cycling rate, C inputs, and water quality, sets the foundation for interpreting commonly used optical property DOM metrics such as fluorescence index (FI), humification index (HIX), and specific ultraviolet absorbance at 254 nm (SUVA254). Case studies and a meta-analysis of each biosphere and subdivision found substantial overlap and characteristic distributions corresponding to ecosystem context for FI, HIX, and SUVA254, signifying chromophores and fluorophores from different ecosystems may be more similar than originally thought. This review challenges researchers to consider ecosystem connectivity when applying optical property results rather than making traditional "if this, then that" results-style conclusions.

Abstract
Integrating hydrothermal treatment (HT) and advanced oxidation processes (AOP) was proved to be a promising approach for improving sludge dewaterability. In this study, the EPS valorization under elevated temperature and sulfate radical-based AOP were investigated to clarify the valorization of organic matter in different EPS layers and its effects on the sludge dewaterability. Results indicated that the organic matters in the inner layer of EPS decreased sharply with the elevated temperature, and released into the soluble EPS. Sulfate radical-based AOP significantly accelerated the degradation of organics and microbial cells lysis, especially in the presence of ZVI. The protein with the higher hydrophobicity was detected under the AOP enhanced HT. A better synergistic effect on sludge dewaterability was obtained by integrated the AOP at the initial hydrothermal stage. 3D-EEM and parallel factor analysis indicated that the protein and microbial by-product like substances in tightly bound EPS significantly affected the dewaterability.

Abstract
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) can strongly complex with various contaminants. Therefore, DOM was deemed as an environmentally friendly substance for controlling the mobility, bioavailability, speciation, toxicity, and fate of metal contaminants in environment. In this study, composting-derived DOM was categorized into three fractions based on different molecular weights (MWs). Furthermore, parallel faction analysis (PARAFAC), two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2DCOS), and a complexation model were employed to reveal the contaminate-binding characterization. Two PARAFAC fluorescence components were identified in the MW < 1 kDa and the 1 kDa < MW < 5 kDa fractions, respectively. In the MW > 5 kDa fraction, three PARAFAC components were identified. Protein-like component C5 did not have the Hg2+-binding ability. Moreover, the results showed that not all the DOM ligands could bind with contaminants, but a high humification degree of composting DOM ligands could strongly bind Hg2+. In addition, DOM ligand with a low humification degree DOM ligands presented a higher Hg2+-binding speed. Subsequently, DOM from different MWs DOM could be applied separately to the different pollution forms. With these promising results, the different DOM ligand-Hg2+-binding properties were characterized to provide theoretical support for environmental pollution control.

Abstract
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is viewed as one of the most chemically active organic substances on earth. It plays vital roles in the fate, bioavailability and toxicity of aquatic exogenous chemical species (e.g., heavy metals, organic pollutants, and nanomaterials). The characteristics of DOM such low concentrations, salt interference and complexity in aquatic environments and limitations of pretreatment for sample preparation and application of characterization techniques severely limit understanding of its nature and environmental roles. This review provides a characterization continuum of aquatic DOM, and demonstrate its biogeochemical implications, enabling in-depth insight into its nature and environmental roles. A synthesis of the effective DOM pretreatment strategies, comprising extraction and fractionation methods, and characterization techniques is presented. Additionally, the biogeochemical dynamics of aquatic DOM and its environmental implications are discussed. The findings indicate the collection of representative DOM samples from water as the first and critical step for characterizing its properties, dynamics, and environmental implications. However, various pretreatment procedures may alter DOM composition and structure, producing highly variable recoveries and even influencing its subsequent characterization. Therefore, complimentary use of various characterization techniques is highly recommended to obtain as much information on DOM as possible, as each characterization technique exhibits various advantages and limitations. Moreover, DOM could markedly change the physical and chemical properties of exogenous chemical species, influencing their transformation and mobility, and finally altering their potential bioavailability and toxicity. Several research gaps to be addressed include the impact of pretreatment on the composition and structure of aquatic DOM, molecular-level structural elucidation for DOM, and assessment of the effects of DOM dynamics on the fate, bioavailability and toxicity of exogenous chemical species.

Abstract
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is an important constituent of wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) effluent. A novel combined tidal and subsurface flow constructed wetland (TF-SSF-CW) of 90 L was constructed for a ten-month trial of advanced treatment of the WWTP effluent. Excitation emission matrix (EEM) fluorescence spectroscopy, parallel factor (PARAFAC) analysis and a two end-member mixing model were employed to characterize the composition and removal process of the effluent DOM (EfOM) from the WWTP. The results showed that the TF-SSF-CW performed an efficient EfOM removal with dissolved organic carbon (DOC) removal rate of 88% and dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) removal rate of 91%. Further analysis demonstrated that the EfOM consisted mainly of two protein moieties and two humic-like groups; protein moieties (76%) constituted the main content of EfOM in raw water and humic-like groups (57%) became the dominating contributor after treatment. The EfOM from the WWTP was mainly of aquatic bacterial origin and evolved to a higher proportion of terrigenous origin with higher humification in the TF-SSF-CW effluent. A common controlling treatment-related factor for determining the concentrations of the same kind of substances (protein groups or humic-like groups) was revealed to exist, and the ratio of removal rates between the same substances in treatment was calculated. Our study demonstrates that the TF-SSF-CW can be a novel and effective treatment method for the EfOM from WWTPs, and is helpful for understanding of the character of EfOM in wetland treatment.

Abstract
In the present study, wastewater samples acquired from five wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), located in western India were characterized using fluorescence spectroscopy, and resin-based fractionation was conducted to fractionate DOM into hydrophobic and hydrophilic base, acid, and neutral fractions. Among several fractions, the hydrophilic acid (HIA) and hydrophilic neutral (HIN) fractions were present in higher abundance (more than 50% of DOC) compared to the hydrophilic base (HIB) fraction in both influent and effluent wastewater stream obtained from WWTPs. Tryptophan-like and tyrosine-like substances were also abundant in the influent and effluent stream of WWTPs. Further, LC-MS/MS analysis could identify 235 and 288 DOM proteins in the influent and effluent stream of WWTP-1, respectively. These proteins revealed varying percentage of tryptophan and tyrosine residues. The tryptophan residues primarily contributed to protein-like fluorescence in wastewater. The proteins were further classified based on their role in biological processes, location in the cell, and molecular function. Among several proteins, Alzheimer's and Huntington disease biomarkers were identified at WWTP-1. Their presence in the surface water can serve as an early warning system for wastewater-based epidemiology.

Abstract
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) greatly influences the transformation of nutrients and pollutants in the environment. To investigate the effects of pyrolysis temperatures on the composition and evolution of pyroligneous acid (PA)-derived DOM, DOM solutions extracted from a series of PA derived from eucalyptus at five pyrolysis temperature ranges (240-420 °C) were analysed with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy, and fluorescence spectroscopy. Results showed that the dissolved organic carbon content sharply increased (p < 0.05) with an increase in pyrolysis temperature. Analysis of the dissolved organic matter composition showed that humic-acid-like substances (71.34-100%) dominated and other fluorescent components (i.e., fulvic-acid-like, soluble microbial by-products, and proteinlike substances) disappeared at high temperatures (>370 °C). The results of two-dimensional correlation spectroscopic analysis suggested that with increasing pyrolysis temperatures, the humic-acid-like substances became more sensitive than other fluorescent components. This study provides valuable information on the characteristic evolution of PA-derived DOM.

Abstract
The migration of sediment phosphorus (P) could be affected by the existence of aquatic plants. To explore the effects of aquatic plants on the P sorption-desorption behaviors in the sediments, sediment in Caohai wetland was collected and cultured with the submerged plant (Hydrilla verticillata) and emerged plant (Scripus triqueter). Then the sorption and desorption experiments were performed, and physicochemical properties, P fractions, and dissolved organic matter (DOM) characteristics were evaluated. Results showed that the treated sediments exhibited similar P sorption kinetic process fitted well with the two-compartment first-order model. Nevertheless, H. verticillata cultured sediment could be well described by the modified Langmuir isotherm model, while S. triqueter cultured sediment fitted the modified Freundlich equations well. The obvious changing P fractions in cultured sediments were BD-P and NaOH-SRP during sorption. H. verticillata and S. triqueter displayed different sorption-desorption behaviors by altering BD-P, humification index, fluorescence intensity, and PARAFAC component contents in sediments. Compared to raw sediment, H. verticillata presented higher P sorption and lower P release from sediments by decreasing BD-P and increasing DOM (fulvic acid-like and humic-like components) content, while S. triqueter showed adverse P sorption and release effects by reducing DOM components. The growth of submerged plants was suggested to make a positive influence on the high efficiency of P retention capacity and low release risk.

Hayes MP, Sapkota Y, White JR, Cook RL. Investigating the impact of in situ soil organic matter degradation through porewater spectroscopic analyses on marsh edge erosion. CHEMOSPHERE 2021; 268:129266. [PMID: 33360143 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2020.129266] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2020] [Revised: 12/08/2020] [Accepted: 12/08/2020] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Marsh edge erosion results in soil organic matter (SOM) loss from coastal wetlands and is differentially affected by wind waves, soil properties, and vegetation cover. The degradation of SOM may make the marsh edge susceptible to erosion. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of in situ biogeochemical degradations of SOM on marsh edge erosion using porewater spectroscopic analyses. Edge erosion was monitored at 12 transects in one of the highly eroding coastal basins of Louisiana. A total of 36 cores were collected at different distances from the edge of the marsh. Porewater was extracted and analyzed for dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and spectroscopic indicators. The north and west side had greater erosion rates (102.38 ± 5.2 cm yr-1) than east and south side (78.47 ± 3.3 cm yr-1). However, the north and east side had greater DOC and refractory carbon but less microbial activity indicating SOM degradation alone did not correlate to edge erosion. The intersecting trend between erosion rate and SOM degradation among four sides of the island indicates the complex nature of edge erosion drivers. The estuarine bottom indicators suggest the eroded SOM is not reburied but rather degraded and emitted back into the atmosphere as CO2, potentially contributing to global change. The coastlines projected to experience high sea-level rise in the coming century are vulnerable to losing a large amount of stored carbon in the absence of efficient mitigation measures.

PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2021; 248:119190. [PMID: 33248890 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2020.119190] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2020] [Revised: 10/29/2020] [Accepted: 10/30/2020] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the combined form, detoxification, and adsorption mechanism of Pb in Cladophora rupestris subcells. The chemical form analysis at different concentrations (0, 0.5, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0, 7.5, and 10 mg/L) indicated that most of the Pb (37%-76%) were integrated with oxalate and undissolved phosphate, which were important to the detoxification of C. rupestris. The characterization of Pb (0, 0.5, and 5.0 mg/L) at the subcellular was conducted via Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Three-dimensional excitation-emission matrix spectroscopy (3D-EEM), and protein secondary structure fitting. Results revealed that Pb-polysaccharides ((C6H5)-OO-Pb-OH, C-O-Pb, and symmetric Pb-O-Pb), Pb-functional-groups ((C6H5)-COO-Pb and (C6H5)-P = O-Pb), and Pb-protein complexes (OH-C7H6-CN-Pb-COOH, C9H10-NH-CN-C = O-Pb, Pb-S-C, and Pb-S) were formed. The cell wall produced transport proteins, such as metallothionein and glutathione, which bound and helped Pb2+ enter the cell. After entering the soluble fraction, the Pb-organic acid ((C6H5)-COO-Pb, (C6H5)-O-Pb, and (C6H5)-P = O-Pb) and Pb-sulfhydryl compound (Pb-S-C/Pb-S) assumed the most important role in resisting the toxicity of Pb2+. Pb2+ was absorbed in the organelle and formed (C6H5)-C-O-Pb and (C6H5)-P = O-Pb, and complexed with protein (Pb-C-N) when treated with 5.0 mg/L Pb. Results could help understand the role of subcellular fraction in the algal adaptation to stressful heavy metal conditions.

REVIEWS OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONTAMINATION AND TOXICOLOGY 2021; 257:69-92.

Abstract
Dissolved organic matter (DOM), a type of mixture containing complex structures and interactions, has important effects on environmental processes such as the complexation and interface reactions of soil heavy metals. Furthermore, microbial dissimilatory iron reduction (DIR), a key process of soil biogeochemical cycle, is closely related to the migration and transformation of heavy metals and causes the release of DOM by carbon-ferrihydrite associations. This chapter considers the structural properties and characterization techniques of DOM and its interaction with microbial dissimilated iron. The effect of DOM on microbial DIR is specifically manifested as driving force properties, coprecipitation, complexation, and electronic shuttle properties. The study, in addition, further explored the influence of pH, microorganisms, salinity, and light conditions, mechanism of DOM and microbial DIR on the toxicity and bioavailability of different heavy metals. The action mechanism of these factors on heavy metals can be summarized as adsorption coprecipitation, methylation, and redox. Based on the findings of the review, future research is expected to focus on: (1) The combination of DOM functional group structure analysis with high-resolution mass spectrometry technology and electrochemical methods to determine the electron supply in the mechanism of DOM action on DIR; (2) Impact of DOM on differences in structure and functions of plant rhizosphere in heavy metal contaminated soil; and (3) Bioavailability of DOM-dissociative iron-reducing bacteria-heavy metal ternary binding on rhizosphere heavy metals under dynamic changes of water level from the perspective of the differences in DOM properties, such as polarity, molecular weight, and functional group.

Characteristics of Dissolved Organic Matter and Its Role in Lake Eutrophication at the Early Stage of Algal Blooms—A Case Study of Lake Taihu, China. WATER 2020.

Abstract
Decaying algal blooms in eutrophic lakes can introduce organic matter into the water and change nutrient concentrations in the water column. The spatial distribution and composition characteristics, sources, and contribution to eutrophication of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in the overlying water of Lake Taihu, a typical eutrophic lake in China, were analyzed by ultraviolet–visible spectra and three-dimensional fluorescence excitation–emission matrix spectra combined with the statistical decomposition technique, parallel factor analysis. The concentration of DOM was represented by dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and DOC in overlying water of Lake Taihu was 2.86–11.83 mg/L. The colored DOM (CDOM) was characterized by an absorption coefficient at 280 nm (a280) and 350 nm (a350), which were 6.63–29.87 and 1.84–10.41 m−1, respectively. These values showed an increasing trend from southeast to northwest, and the high values were concentrated in the northwest and northern lake areas. The parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC) identified two protein-like (C1: tyrosine-like and C2: tryptophan-like) and one humic-like (C3: humic acid and fulvic acid) fluorescence components for fluorescent DOM (FDOM). The most dominant components were protein-like components (C1 + C2), whose fluorescence intensity contributed 87.55% ± 3.39% to the total fluorescence intensity (Ft) of FDOM (3.38 R.U.). The mean value of the fluorescence index (FI) and index of recent autochthonous contribution (BIX) of DOM was 1.77 and 0.92, and DOC, a280 and fluorescence intensities of FDOM components were all significantly and positively correlated with chl. a, indicating that DOM, CDOM, and FDOM were all mainly derived from algal activities and metabolites. The average humification index of the DOM was 0.66, which indicated a low humification degree. The protein-like DOM was correlated with DON and DOP, and might make great contributions to the continuous occurrence of algal blooms.

Abstract
The continuous deterioration of drinking water quality supplies by several anthropogenic activities is a serious global challenge in recent times. In this current study, the drinking water quality of Ikem rural agricultural area (southeastern Nigeria) was assessed using chemometrics and multiple indexical methods. Twenty-five groundwater samples were collected from hand-dug wells and analyzed for physicochemical parameters such as pH, major ions, and heavy metals. The pH of the samples (which ranged between 5.2 and 6.7) indicated that waters were slightly acidic. Cations and anions (except for phosphate) were within their respective standard limits. Except for Mn, heavy metals were also found to be below their maximum allowable limits. Factor analysis identified both geogenic processes and anthropogenic inputs as possible origins of the analyzed physicochemical parameters. Modified heavy metal index, geoaccumulation index, and overall index of pollution revealed that all the hand-dug wells were in excellent condition, and hence safe for drinking purposes. However, pollution load index, water quality index (WQI), and entropy-weighted water quality index (EWQI) revealed that some wells (about 8-12%) were slightly contaminated, and hence are placed in good water category. A hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) was performed based on the integration of the WQI and EWQI results. The HCA revealed two major quality categories of the samples. While the first cluster comprises of samples classified as excellent drinking water by both WQI and EWQI models, the second cluster comprises of about 12% samples which were identified as good water by either the WQI or EWQI.

Simulated photo-degradation of dissolved organic matter in lakes revealed by three-dimensional excitation-emission matrix with regional integration and parallel factor analysis.

Abstract
Simulated photo-degradation of fluorescent dissolved organic matter (FDOM) in Lake Baihua (BH) and Lake Hongfeng (HF) was investigated with three-dimensional excitation-emission matrix (3DEEM) fluorescence combined with the fluorescence regional integration (FRI), parallel factor (PARAFAC) analysis, and multi-order kinetic models. In the FRI analysis, fulvic-like and humic-like materials were the main constituents for both BH-FDOM and HF-FDOM. Four individual components were identified by use of PARAFAC analysis as humic-like components (C1), fulvic-like components (C2), protein-like components (C3) and unidentified components (C4). The maximum 3DEEM fluorescence intensity of PARAFAC components C1-C3 decreased by about 60%, 70% and 90%, respectively after photo-degradation. The multi-order kinetic model was acceptable to represent the photo-degradation of FDOM with correlation coefficient (Radj2) (0.963-0.998). The photo-degradation rate constants (kn) showed differences of three orders of magnitude, from 1.09 × 10-6 to 4.02 × 10-4 min-1, and half-life of multi-order model ( T1/2n) ranged from 5.26 to 64.01 min. The decreased values of fluorescence index (FI) and biogenic index (BI), the fact that of percent fluorescence response parameter of Region I (PI,n) showed the greatest change ratio, followed by percent fluorescence response parameter of Region II (PII,n), while the largest decrease ratio was found for C3 components, and the lowest T1/2n was observed for C3, indicated preferential degradation of protein-like materials/components derived from biological sources during photo-degradation. This research on the degradation of FDOM by 3DEEM/FRI-PARAFAC would be beneficial to understanding the photo-degradation of FDOM in natural environments and accurately predicting the environmental behaviors of contaminants in the presence of FDOM.

Abstract
Autochthonous dissolved organic matter (DOM) is increasingly released in lakes due to eutrophication, and thus affects the composition and environmental behaviors of DOM in eutrophic lakes. However, there are only limited studies on the molecular characteristics of autochthonous DOM and its influencing mechanisms. Herein, end-member DOM samples of macrophytes, algae, sediments and freshwater DOM samples in eutrophic lakes (Ch:Taihu and Dianchi) were collected and characterized by optical spectroscopy and Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR-MS). The results revealed the chemical structures of autochthonous DOM were more aliphatic and less oxidized, which was marked by increases in lipid compounds and decreases in the lignin components as compared to the allochthonous DOM-dominated freshwaters. More specially, algae-derived DOM contains more lipid compounds, while macrophyte-derived DOM was dominated by lignin and tannin compounds according to Van Krevelen plots. Sediment-derived DOM contained more N-containing compounds. The traditional optical indices indicated the relative aromaticity covaried with polyphenolic and polycyclic aromatics, whereas those reflecting autochthonous DOM covaried with more aliphatic compounds. Multivariate analysis of FT-ICR-MS data of end-members and freshwaters revealed the predominant terrestrial input to Lake Taihu and greater contribution of algae released DOM to Dianchi. This study provides critical information about the characteristics of autochthonous DOM at a molecular level and confirmed autochthonous DOM was compositionally distinct from allochthonous DOM. Overall autochthonous DOM should be gained more attention in the eutrophic lakes.

Abstract
The transport behavior of arsenic (As(V)) loaded by ferric humate (HA-Fe) colloid, denoted as HA-Fe/As(V), moving in a saturated quartz sand column, was tested in the laboratory under varying pH values, ionic strengths, and HA and Fe(III) content. The time-fractional advection-dispersion equation (fADE) model was then employed to analyze the observed migration of HA-Fe/As(V). Results showed that the stability of the HA-Fe colloid exhibited an upward trend with an increasing pH and HA content. An increasing HA content led to a decrease in the particle size of the HA-Fe colloid. However, the effect of Fe(III) concentration on colloidal particle size exhibited the opposite phenomenon. The ability of the HA-Fe colloid to load As(V) gradually increased with the increase of the Fe(III) concentration. During the co-transport of the HA-Fe/As(V) colloid, transport of As(V) was promoted with increasing pH, increasing HA and Fe(III) content, and decreasing ionic strength in the saturated porous medium. The transport behavior of As(V) can be well fitted by the fADE model. The model analysis revealed that sub-diffusion of As(V) was weakened in the HA-Fe/As(V) colloid with high HA content. Sub-diffusion of As(V) in the low pH colloid was stronger than that of the high-pH colloid, and the molecular diffusion and mechanical dispersion were more weakened in the high-pH colloid than that of the low-pH colloid. When observing varying ionic strengths, As(V) exhibited stronger sub-diffusion in the HA-Fe/As(V) colloid with a higher ionic strength. As for the Fe(III) content, transport of As(V) was mainly affected by sub-diffusion in the HA-Fe/As(V) colloid with a low Fe(III) content. These findings provided direct and necessary insights into the effects of the HA-Fe colloid on the migration of As(V) throughout saturated porous media under different hydrochemical conditions found in natural environments.

Abstract
The incorporation and cycling of pyrogenic organic matter in soil is a potential carbon sink, while the pyrolysis behaviors of soil organic matter are still lacking. Pyrolysis characteristics of soil fulvic acid (FA) and humic acid (HA) were investigated using thermogravimetry combined with Fourier transform infrared spectrometer-mass spectrometer (TG-FTIR-MS) and kinetic models. Four reaction stages corresponding to four pseudo-components were distinguished for both FA and HA. FA exhibited greater transformation contributions of hemicellulose-like and cellulose-like pseudo-components, while HA exhibited greater transformation contributions of lignin-like pseudo-components. Compared to HA, higher levels of heat-resistant aromatic compounds, phenolic groups, and carboxylic groups were recognized in FA. Values of both activation energy (Ea, 246.13-661.40 kJ·mol-1) and pre-exponential factor (lnA, 53.49-107.16 min-1) of FA were greater than corresponding Ea (241.74-466.70 kJ·mol-1) and lnA (51.99-74.36 min-1) values of HA determined by Flynn-Wall-Ozawa method and Distributed Activation Energy Model. The main pyrolysis reaction mechanisms of both FA and HA closely matched with the order-based model corresponding to 2nd and 3rd order random nucleation on an individual particle. The evolved gas species of H2, CH4, H2O, and CO2 were dominant for FA and HA pyrolysis. Generally, the total H2/CO2 and CH4/H2O releases were relatively larger for FA and HA pyrolysis, respectively. TG-FTIR-MS is shown to be an effective method to provide valuable and qualitative analysis of the gaseous volatile species evolved during HS pyrolysis. Findings from this systematic study of soil organic matter responding to pyrolysis will be critical for predicting the changes of soil systems or carbon cycle affected by future climate and fire regimes.

Abstract
Fulvic acid (FA) significantly influences the bioavailability and fate of heavy metals in environments, while its acid-base characters and metal binding processes are still unclear. Here, spectroscopic techniques combined with multiple models (e.g., NICA-Donnan model) and two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2D COS) were applied to explore the proton and copper binding properties of FA sub-fractions (FA3-FA13). The charge densities, average contents of carboxylic and phenolic groups, average dissociation constants pKa1 and pKa2 of sub-fractions ranged 0-16 meq∙g∙C-1, 5.03-9.58 meq∙g∙C-1, 2.52-4.67 meq∙g∙C-1, 4.15-4.33 and 8.52-9.72, respectively. FA sub-fractions had a relatively narrow distribution of carboxyl group and a broad distribution of phenolic group. FA sub-fractions also exhibited roughly two phenolic hydroxyl groups per every 1-3 phenyl rings. Differential absorbance spectra (DAS) derived Gaussian bands were associated to the inter-chromophore interactions, the changes of molecular conformations and functional groups with copper addition. Differential spectra slopes (DSlope275-295&325-375) were more significant with higher copper concentration and copper amounts bonded to carboxylic groups. UV-Vis and fluorescence spectra with 2D heterospectral COS revealed the copper binding heterogeneities and sequential orders of chromophores and fluorophores, quantitatively confirming by the order of conditional stability constants (log KCu: 4.64-5.56). Salicylic-/polyhydroxyphenolic, hydroxyl and amino groups were strongly associated to the basic units for fluorophores. Sequential changes followed the order of humic-like→fulvic-like materials for FA3/FA5, humic-like→fulvic-like→tryptophan-like materials for FA7, and humic-like→tryptophan-like→fulvic-like→tyrosine-like materials for FA9/FA13. Spectroscopic techniques combined with various models (especially for 2D COS) are beneficial to elucidate the binding heterogeneity and sensitivity for metal-organic matters at the functional group level.

Yang C, Liu Y, Sun X, Miao S, Guo Y, Li T. Characterization of fluorescent dissolved organic matter from green macroalgae (Ulva prolifera)-derived biochar by excitation-emission matrix combined with parallel factor and self-organizing maps analyses. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2019; 287:121471. [PMID: 31121450 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2019.121471] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2019] [Revised: 05/09/2019] [Accepted: 05/10/2019] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
This study investigated the effects of various pyrolysis temperatures and extraction salinities on the fluorescence features of DOM from Ulva prolifera-derived biochar under aseptic conditions using fluorescence excitation-emission matrix (EEM) spectroscopy with parallel factor (PARAFAC) analysis and self-organizing maps (SOM). Four humic-like substances and one protein-like substance were identified by the PARAFAC model. The contents and compositions of PARAFAC components depended more on the pyrolysis temperature than on the extraction salinity. A high pyrolysis temperature could enhance the release of humic-like DOM from biochar. Coupling PARAFAC and SOM facilitates the visualization and interpretation of the relationship between the pyrolysis temperature and the fluorescence properties of DOM. These results are valuable for understanding the effects and processes of macroalgal biochar in the possible environmental and industrial applications.
