Zhang S, Song C, Wang L, Wang M, Zhang D, Tang G. Exploring the promoting effect of nitrilotriacetic acid on hydroxyl radical and humification during magnetite-amended composting of sewage sludge. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2024; 403:130863. [PMID: 38772520 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2024.130863] [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: 03/26/2024] [Revised: 05/17/2024] [Accepted: 05/18/2024] [Indexed: 05/23/2024]
Abstract
The OH production by adding magnetite (MGT) alone has been reported in composting. However, the potential of nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) addition for magnetite-amended sludge composting remained unclear. Three treatments with different addition [control check (CK); T1: 5 % MGT; T2: 5 % MGT + 5 % NTA] were investigated to characterize hydroxyl radical, humification and bacterial community response. The NTA addition manifested the best performance, with the peak OH content increase by 52 % through facilitating the cycle of Fe(Ⅱ)/Fe(Ⅲ). It led to the highest organic matters degradation (22.3 %) and humic acids content (36.1 g/kg). Furthermore, NTA addition altered bacterial community response, promoting relative abundances of iron-redox related genera, and amino acid metabolism but decreasing carbohydrate metabolism. Structural equation model indicated that temperature and Streptomyces were the primary factors affecting OH content. The study suggests that utilizing chelators is a promising strategy to strengthen humification in sewage sludge composting with adding iron-containing minerals.

MRI-Guided Tumor Therapy Based on Synergy of Ferroptosis, Immunosuppression Reversal and Disulfidptosis. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2024:e2309842.

Abstract
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells have a high demand for oxygen and glucose to fuel their growth and spread, shaping the tumor microenvironment (TME) that can lead to a weakened immune system by hypoxia and increased risk of metastasis. To disrupt this vicious circle and improve cancer therapeutic efficacy, a strategy is proposed with the synergy of ferroptosis, immunosuppression reversal and disulfidptosis. An intelligent nanomedicine GOx-IA@HMON@IO is successfully developed to realize this strategy. The Fe release behaviors indicate the glutathione (GSH)-responsive degradation of HMON. The results of titanium sulfate assay, electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra, 5,5'-Dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid (DTNB) assay and T1 -weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrate the mechanism of the intelligent iron atom (IA)-based cascade reactions for GOx-IA@HMON@IO, generating robust reactive oxygen species (ROS). The results on cells and mice reinforce the synergistic mechanisms of ferroptosis, immunosuppression reversal and disulfidptosis triggered by the GOx-IA@HMON@IO with the following steps: 1) GSH peroxidase 4 (GPX4) depletion by disulfidptosis; 2) IA-based cascade reactions; 3) tumor hypoxia reversal; 4) immunosuppression reversal; 5) GPX4 depletion by immunotherapy. Based on the synergistic mechanisms of ferroptosis, immunosuppression reversal and disulfidptosis, the intelligent nanomedicine GOx-IA@HMON@IO can be used for MRI-guided tumor therapy with excellent biocompatibility and safety.

WASTE MANAGEMENT (NEW YORK, N.Y.) 2024; 174:390-399. [PMID: 38103349 DOI: 10.1016/j.wasman.2023.12.018] [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: 07/28/2023] [Revised: 12/08/2023] [Accepted: 12/09/2023] [Indexed: 12/19/2023]
Abstract
Odors have posed challenges to the advancement of aerobic composting. This work aims to identify the primary components responsible for odors and assess the effectiveness and mechanisms of the zero-valent iron/H2O2 system controlling various odorants in aerobic composting. Swine manure and food waste were used as composting materials, with the addition of zero-valent iron and hydrogen peroxide to mitigate odor emissions. Results revealed that odorants included ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, and 22 types of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), with ethyl acetate, heptane, and dimethyl disulfide being predominant. Among the odorants emitted, ammonia accounted for 75.43%, hydrogen sulfide for 0.09%, and identified VOCs for 24.48%. The ZVI/H2O2 system showed a significant reduction in ammonia and VOCs emission, with the reduction of 51% (ammonia) and 41.3% (VOCs) respectively, primarily observed during the thermophilic period. The occurrence of Fenton-like reactions and changes in key microbial populations were the main mechanisms accounting for odor control. The occurrence of Fenton-like reaction was confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and reactive oxygen detection, showing the oxidation of zero-valent iron by H2O2 to higher valence elemental iron, and the simultaneous production of ·OH. Microbial analysis indicated that an enrichment of specific microorganisms with Bacillus contributed to feammonx and Bacillaceae contributed to organic biodegradation. Redundancy analysis highlighted the role of key microbial species (Bacillaceae, Bacillus, and Ureibacillus) in effectively reducing the level of ammonia and volatile organic compounds. These novelty findings illustrated that the potential of this system is promising for controlling the emission of odorants and aerobic composting reinforcement.

Abstract
Composting is an environmentally friendly method that facilitates the biodegradation of organic solid waste, ultimately transforming it into stable end-products suitable for various applications. The element iron (Fe) exhibits flexibility in form and valence. The typical Fe-related additives include zero-valent-iron, iron oxides, ferric and ferrous ion salts, which can be targeted to drive composting process through different mechanisms and are of keen interest to academics. Therefore, this review integrated relevant literature from recent years to provide more comprehensive overview about the influence and mechanisms of various Fe-related additives on composting process, including organic components conversion, humus formation and sequestration, changes in biological factors, stability and safety of composting end-products. Meanwhile, it was recommended that further research be conducted on the deep action mechanisms, biochemical pathways, budget balance analysis, products stability and application during organic solid waste composting with Fe-related additives. This review provided guidance for the subsequent targeted application of Fe-related additives in compost, thereby facilitating cost reduction and promoting circular economy objectives.

Abstract
In this study, nano zero-valent iron loaded on biochar (BC-nZVI) was analyzed for its effects on antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in composting. The results showed that BC-nZVI increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and the peak values of H2O2 and OH were 22.95 % and 55.30 % higher than those of the control group, respectively. After 65 days, the relative abundances of representative ARGs decreased by 56.12 % in the nZVI group (with BC-nZVI added). An analysis of bacterial communities and networks revealed that Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria, and Firmicutes were the main hosts for ARGs, and BC-nZVI weakened the link between ARGs and host bacteria. Distance-based redundancy analysis showed that BC-nZVI altered the microbial community structure through environmental factors and that most ARGs were negatively correlated with ROS, suggesting that ROS significantly affected the relative abundance of ARGs. According to these results, BC-nZVI showed potential for decreasing the relative abundance of ARGs in composting.

Abstract
This study developed a Fenton-like system by adding calcium peroxide (CaO2) to a composting system containing straw and sludge. The objective was to examine the influence of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and the structure of the bacterial community. The findings indicated that the inclusion of CaO2 facilitated the reduction of ARGs. ARGs abundance in the test group (T) with CaO2 was 19.02% lower than that in the control check group (CK) without CaO2, and the abundance of ARGs in both groups after composting was lower than the initial abundance. Additionally, the structure of bacterial community in both groups underwent significant changes. Redundancy analysis (RDA) revealed that the CaO2-induced Fenton-like reaction predominantly affected temperature, pH, and the bacterial community by means of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In conclusion, the addition of CaO2 enhanced the removal of ARGs from sewage-sludge and improved compost quality in the composting.

Abstract
The aim of this paper was to investigate the influence of Fe (III) on humification and free radicals evolution. The experimental data showed that the experimental group (CT) with Fe2(SO4)3 had a better degree of humification than the control group (CK). The humic substances (HS) content was 10% higher in CT (23.94 mg·g-1) than in CK (21.54 mg·g-1) in the final. Fe (III) contributed significantly to the formation of free radicals in HS. The amount of H2O2 in CT increased to 74.8 mmol·kg-1, while CK was only 46.5 mmol·kg-1. The content of semiquinone free radical was 10.32×1011 spins/mm3 in CT, 5.11×1011 spins/mm3 in CK in the end. Several iron-reducing bacteria were detected in composting, among which Paenibacillus was dominant. The above findings suggested that the application of Fe2(SO4)3 enhanced the iron reduction synergistic quinone redox cycling and promoted the generation of free radicals during the humification of composting.

Abstract
This study aimed to explore the effect of peroxydisulfate on the removal of heavy metals, antibiotics, heavy metal resistance genes (HMRGs), and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) during composting. The results showed that peroxydisulfate achieved the passivation of Fe, Mn, Zn, and Cu by promoting their speciation variations, thus reducing their bioavailability. And the residual antibiotics were better degraded by peroxydisulfate. In addition, metagenomics analysis indicated that the relative abundance of most HMRGs, ARGs, and MGEs was more effectively down-regulated by peroxydisulfate. Network analysis confirmed Thermobifida and Streptomyces were dominant potential host bacteria of HMRGs and ARGs, whose relative abundance was also effectively down-regulated by peroxydisulfate. Finally, mantel test showed the significant effect of the evolution of microbial communities and strong oxidation of peroxydisulfate on the removal of pollutants. These results suggested that heavy metals, antibiotics, HMRGs, and ARGs shared a joint fate of being removed driven by peroxydisulfate during composting.

Abstract
The goal of this study was to investigate the heterogeneity of thermophilic microorganisms and their lignocellulose-degrading gene diversity during composting. In this study, bagasse pith/dairy manure (BAG) and sawdust/dairy manure (SAW) were used as experimental subjects. The pour plate method indicated that thermophilic bacteria and thermophilic actinobacteria were more culturable than thermophilic fungi. Metagenomics analysis showed that the Actinobacteria, Firmicutes and Proteobacteria were the dominant phyla during composting. In addition, auxiliary activity and glycoside hydrolase families were critical for lignocellulosic degradation, which were found to be more abundant in BAG. As a result, the degradation rates of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin in BAG (7.36%, 13.99% and 5.68%) were observably higher than those in SAW (6.13%, 12.09% and 2.62%). These findings contribute to understanding how thermophilic microbial communities play a role in the deconstruction of different lignocelluloses and provide a potential strategy to comprehensively utilize the resources of lignocellulosic biomass.

Abstract
In this study, the effect of Fe3+ on the quinone redox cycling driving lignocellulosic degradation in composting systems was investigated. The results showed that the degradation rates of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin were higher in the experimental group (CT) with Fe2(SO4)3 addition than in the blank group (CK) (CT, 52.55 %, 45.14 %, 56.98 %; CK, 49.63 %, 37.34 %, 52.3 %). Changes in the abundance of key enzymes for quinone reduction (AA3_1, AA3_2, AA6) and the structural succession of microbial communities were analyzed by metagenomic analysis. Among them, Fe2(SO4)3 had the most significant effect on AA3_2, with an approximately 8-fold increase in abundance compared to the beginning of composting. The dominant phylum in the composting process was Actinobacteria. In conclusion, the addition of Fe2(SO4)3 contributed to the quinone redox cycling and effectively improved the degradation rate of lignocellulose in composting.

Ma S, Liu H. Effects of 3D-printed bulking agent on microbial community succession and carbohydrate-active enzymes genes during swine manure composting. CHEMOSPHERE 2022; 306:135513. [PMID: 35777538 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2022.135513] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2022] [Revised: 05/30/2022] [Accepted: 06/25/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
The bulking agent plays an important role in aerobic composting, but their shape, porosity, and homogeneity need to be optimized. In the present work, a bulking agent with a uniform shape was prepared by 3D printing to explore its influence on physicochemical parameters, microbial community succession, and gene abundance of carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) in swine manure aerobic composting. The results showed that adding 3D-printed bulking agents can increase maximum temperature, prolong the thermophilic period, and improve the degradation rate of volatile solids, which was attributed to ameliorative air permeability by the porous 3D-printed bulking agent. The abundances of some pathogenic bacteria decreased and CAZymes genes increased respectively in response to the addition of the 3D-printed bulking agent, implying it has a certain positive effect on improving the safety of compost products and promoting the degradation of organic matter. In summary, the 3D-printed bulking agent has good application potential in laboratory-scale aerobic composting.

Ma L, Sun R, Yang H, Li J, Wen X, Cao Z, Zhou Y, Fu M, Li Q. Metagenomics analysis revealed the coupling of lignin degradation with humus formation mediated via shell powder during composting. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2022; 363:127949. [PMID: 36108576 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2022.127949] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2022] [Revised: 09/05/2022] [Accepted: 09/07/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
This study was the first to explore the effect of shell powder (SP) on lignin degradation and humus (HS) formation during composting. The results showed that the treatment group (T) with SP consumed more polyphenols, reducing sugar and amino acids than the control group (CK), especially the rate of reducing sugar consumption in T (50.61 %) was significantly higher than CK (28.40 %). SP greatly enhanced the efficiency of lignin degradation (T:45.47 %; CK:24.63 %) and HS formation (T:34.93 %; CK:20.16 %). The content of HA in T was 12.94 mg/g while CK was 12.06 mg/g. SP maintained a continuous increase in the relative abundance of AA1, AA3 after cooling phase. Meanwhile, T (48.98 %) significantly increased the abundance of Actinobacteria compared with CK (37.19 %). Actinobacteria, AA1 and AA3 were identified as the main factors promoting lignin degradation and HS formation by correlation analysis. Therefore, adding SP could be a novel strategy to improve compost quality.
