THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 917:170585. [PMID: 38301779 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.170585] [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: 09/18/2023] [Revised: 01/08/2024] [Accepted: 01/29/2024] [Indexed: 02/03/2024]
Abstract
Rice stem is the sole conduit for cadmium translocation from underground to aboveground. The presence of cadmium can trigger responses of rice stem multi-phenotype, affecting metabolism, reducing yield, and altering composition, which is related to crop growth, food safety, and new energy utilization. Exploring the adversity response of plant phenotypes can provide a reliable assessment of growth status. However, the phytotoxicity and mechanism of cadmium stress on rice stem remain unclear. Here, we systematically revealed the response mechanisms of cadmium accumulation, adversity physiology, and morphological characteristic in rice stem under cadmium stress for the first time with concentration gradients of CK, 5, 25, 50, and 100 μM, and duration gradients of Day 5, Day 10, Day 15, and Day 20. The results indicated that cadmium stress led to a significant increase in cadmium accumulation, accompanied by the adversity response in stem phenotypes. Specifically, cadmium can cause fluctuations in soluble protein and disturbance of malondialdehyde (MDA), which reflects lipid peroxidation induced by cadmium accumulation. Lipid peroxidation inhibited rice growth by causing (1) a reduction in stem length, diameter, and weight, (2) suppression of air cavity, vascular bundle, parenchyma, and epidermal hair, and (3) disruption of cell structure. Furthermore, rapid detection of cadmium was realized based on the combination of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) and machine learning, which took less than 3 min. The established qualitative model realized the precise discrimination of cadmium stress degrees with a prediction accuracy exceeding 92 %, and the quantitative model achieved the outstanding prediction effect of cadmium, with Rp of 0.9944. This work systematically revealed the phytotoxicity of cadmium on rice stem multi-phenotype from a novel perspective of lipid peroxidation and realized the rapid detection of cadmium in rice stem, which provided the technical tool and theoretical foundation for accurate prevention and efficient control of heavy metal risks in crops.

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2023; 20:5405.

Abstract
The main aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the addition of selected industrial food wastes on the fate of micro- and macro-elements within an anaerobic digestion process (AD), as well as define the relationship between their content and AD efficiency. Orange peels, (OP), orange pulp (PL) and brewery spent grain (BSG) were used as co-substrates, while municipal sewage sludge (SS) was applied as the main component. The introduction of co-substrates resulted in improvements in feedstock composition in terms of macro-elements, with a simultaneous decrease in the content of HMs (heavy metals). Such beneficial effects led to enhanced methane production, and improved process performance at the highest doses of PL and BSG. In turn, reduced biogas and methane production was found in the three-component digestion mixtures in the presence of OP and BSG; therein, the highest accumulation of most HMs within the process was also revealed. Considering the agricultural application of all digestates, exceedances for Cu, Zn and Hg were recorded, thereby excluding their further use for that purpose.

Abstract
The use of plants to extract metal contaminants from soils has been proposed as a cost-effective means of remediation, and utilizing energy crops for this phytoextraction process is a useful way of attaining added value from the process. To simultaneously attain both these objectives successfully, selection of an appropriate plant species is crucial to satisfy a number of imporTant criteria including translocation index, metal and drought tolerance, fast growth rate, high lignocellulosic content, good biomass production, adequate calorific value, second generation attribute, and a good rooting system. In this study, we proposed a multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) to aid decision-making on plant species based on information generated from a systematic review survey. Eight species Helianthus annuus (sunflower), Brassica juncea (Indian mustard), Glycine max (soybean), Salix spp. (willow), Populus spp. (poplar), Panicum virgatum (switchgrass), Typha latifolia (cattails), and Miscanthus sinensis (silvergrass) were examined based on the amount of hits on a number of scientific search databases. The data was normalized by estimating their min-max values and their suitability. These criteria/indicators were weighted based on stipulated research objectives/priorities to form the basis of a final overall utility scoring. Using the MCDA, sunflower and silvergrass emerged as the top two candidates for both phytoremediation and bioenergy production. The multi-criteria matrix scores assist the process of making decisions because they compile plant species options quantitatively for all relevant criteria and key performance indicators (KPIs) and its weighing process helps incorporate stakeholder priorities to the selection process.

Potential of eggshell waste derived calcium for sustainable production of biogas from cassava wastewater. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2022; 321:116000. [PMID: 35987054 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2022.116000] [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: 07/10/2022] [Revised: 08/02/2022] [Accepted: 08/09/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Cassava is a staple crop that plays a significant role in the food security of many countries. However, its processing produces a liquid by-product known as cassava wastewater (CW), which can have adverse environmental consequences if discarded without treatment. Despite its cyanide content, CW has a high organic content and may be profitable when used to produce biogas. In this study, the influence of calcium particles from eggshell residues was investigated on the anaerobic digestion of CW. Moreover, the performance of the bioreactor was remotely monitored. Calcium particles from milled-calcined chicken eggshells were added to the bioreactor, and biogas production was investigated for 21 days. Adding 1 g/L and 3 g/L of calcium particles increased biogas (Bio H2 + Bio CH4) production by 195% and 338%, respectively. Finally, the requirement for digestate post-treatment before use in agriculture was observed after assessing its phytotoxicity through the germination and root growth of L. sativa seeds.

Abstract
Owing to their roles in the arsenic (As) biogeochemical cycle, microorganisms and plants offer significant potential for developing innovative biotechnological applications able to remediate As pollutions. This possible use in bioremediation processes and phytomanagement is based on their ability to catalyse various biotransformation reactions leading to, e.g. the precipitation, dissolution, and sequestration of As, stabilisation in the root zone and shoot As removal. On the one hand, genomic studies of microorganisms and their communities are useful in understanding their metabolic activities and their interaction with As. On the other hand, our knowledge of molecular mechanisms and fate of As in plants has been improved by laboratory and field experiments. Such studies pave new avenues for developing environmentally friendly bioprocessing options targeting As, which worldwide represents a major risk to many ecosystems and human health.

Abstract
The genus Brassica is recognized for including species with phytoaccumulation potential and a large amount of research has been carried out in this area under a variety of conditions, from laboratory experiments to field trials, with spiked or naturally contaminated soils, using one- or multi-element contaminated soil, generating various and sometimes contradictory results with limited practical applications. To date, the actual field potential of Brassica species and the feasibility of a complete phytoextraction process have not been fully evaluated. Therefore, the aim of this study was to summarize the results of the experiments that have been performed with a view to analyzing real potentials and limitations. The reduced biomass and low metal mobility in the soil have been addressed by the development of chemically or biologically assisted phytoremediation technologies, the use of soil amendments, and the application of crop management strategies. Certain issues, such as the fate of harvested biomass or the performance of species in multi-metal-contaminated soils, remain to be solved by future research. Potential improvements to current experimental settings include testing species grown to full maturity, using a greater amount of soil in experiments, conducting more trials under real field conditions, developing improved crop management systems, and optimizing solutions for harvested biomass disposal.

Abstract
Phytoremediation is an attractive strategy for cleaning soils polluted with a wide spectrum of organic and inorganic toxic compounds. Among these pollutants, heavy metals have attracted global attention due to their negative effects on human health and terrestrial ecosystems. As a result of this, numerous studies have been carried out to elucidate the mechanisms involved in removal processes. These studies have employed many plant species that might be used for phytoremediation and the obtention of end bioproducts such as biofuels and biogas useful in combustion and heating. Phytotechnologies represent an attractive segment that is increasingly gaining attention worldwide due to their versatility, economic profitability, and environmental co-benefits such as erosion control and soil quality and functionality improvement. In this review, the process of valorizing biomass from phytoremediation is described; in addition, relevant experiments where polluted biomass is used as feedstock or bioenergy is produced via thermo- and biochemical conversion are analyzed. Besides, pretreatments of biomass to increase yields and treatments to control the transfer of metals to the environment are also mentioned. Finally, aspects related to the feasibility, benefits, risks, and gaps of converting toxic-metal-polluted biomass are discussed.
