Li X, Wu Q, Wang Y, Li G, Su Y. UHPM dominance in driving the formation of petroleum-contaminated soil aggregate, the bacterial communities succession, and phytoremediation. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 471:134322. [PMID: 38636238 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.134322] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2024] [Revised: 04/12/2024] [Accepted: 04/14/2024] [Indexed: 04/20/2024]
Abstract
This study focused on the effects of urea humate-based porous materials (UHPM) on soil aggregates, plant physiological characteristics, and microbial diversity to explore the effects of UHPM on the phytoremediation of petroleum-contaminated soil. The compositions of soil aggregates, ryegrass (Lolium perenne) biomass, plant petroleum enrichment capacity, and bacterial communities in soils with and without UHPM were investigated. The results showed that UHPM significantly increased soil aggregate content by 0.25 mm-5 mm, resulting in higher fertilizer holding capacity, erosion resistance capacity, and plant biomass and microbial number than the soil without UHPM mixed. In addition, UHPM decreased the absorption of petroleum by plants in the soil while increasing the abundance of degrading bacteria and petroleum-degrading-related genes in the soil, thereby promoting the removal of hard-to-degrade petroleum components. RDA showed that, compared with the unimproved soil, each soil indicator was positively correlated with a high abundance of degrading bacteria in the improved soil and was significant. UHPM can be regarded as a petroleum-contaminated soil remediation agent that combines slow nutrient release with soil improvement effects.

Miscanthus x giganteus stress tolerance and phytoremediation capacities in highly diesel contaminated soils. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2023; 344:118475. [PMID: 37406491 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2023.118475] [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: 03/20/2023] [Revised: 06/15/2023] [Accepted: 06/19/2023] [Indexed: 07/07/2023]
Abstract
Second generation biofuel crop Miscanthus x giganteus (Mxg) was studied as a candidate for petroleum hydrocarbons (PHs) contaminated soil phytomanagement. The soil was polluted by diesel in wide concentration gradient up to 50 g⋅kg-1 in an ex-situ pot experiment. The contaminated soil/plant interactions were investigated using plant biometric and physiological parameters, soil physico-chemical and microbial community's characteristics. The plant parameters and chlorophyll fluorescence indicators showed an inhibitory effect of diesel contamination; however much lower than expected from previously published results. Moreover, lower PHs concentrations (5 and 10 g⋅kg-1) resulted in positive reinforcement of electron transport as a result of hormesis effect. The soil pH did not change significantly during the vegetation season. The decrease of total organic carbon was significantly lower in planted pots. Soil respiration and dehydrogenases activity increased with the increasing contamination indicating ongoing PHs biodegradation. In addition, microbial biomass estimated by phospholipid fatty acids increased only at higher PHs concentrations. Higher dehydrogenases values were obtained in planted pots compared to unplanted. PHs degradation followed the first-order kinetics and for the middle range of contamination (10-40 g⋅kg-1) significantly lower PHs half-lives were determined in planted than unplanted soil pointing on phytoremediation. Diesel degradation was in range 35-70 % according to pot variant. Results confirmed the potential of Mxg for diesel contaminated soils phytomanagement mainly in PHs concentrations up to 20 g⋅kg-1 where phytoremediation was proved, and biomass yield was reduced only by 29 %.

Abstract
Along with expanding urbanization and industrialization, environmental pollution which negatively affects the surroundings, has been rising quickly. As a result, induces heavy metal contamination which poses a serious threat to living organisms of aquatic and soil ecosystems. Therefore, they are a need to ameliorate the effects cost by cost pollution on the environment. In this review, we explore methods employed to mitigate the effects caused by heavy metals on the environment. Many techniques employed to manage environmental pollution are tedious and very costly, necessitating the use of alternative management strategies to resolve this challenge. In this concept, bioremediation is viewed as a future technique, due to its environmental friendliness and cost-effective measures aligned with sustainable or climate-smart agriculture to manage contaminants in the environment. The technique involves the use of living entities such as bacteria, fungi, and plants to deteriorate toxic substances from the rhizosphere. Currently, bioremediation is thought to be the most practical, dependable, environmentally benign, and long-lasting solution. Although bioremediation involves different techniques, they are still a need to find the most efficient method for removing toxic substances from the environment. This review focuses on the origins of heavy metal pollution, delves into cost-effective and green technological approaches for eliminating heavy metal pollutants from the environment, and discusses the impact of these pollutants on human health.

Abstract
Carbon neutrality is a requisite for industrial development in modern times. In this paper, we review information on possible applications of polymers from the energy crop Miscanthus in the global industries, and we highlight the life cycle aspects of Miscanthus in detail. We discuss the benefits of Miscanthus cultivation on unoccupied marginal lands as well as the rationale for the capabilities of Miscanthus regarding both soil carbon storage and soil remediation. We also discuss key trends in the processing of Miscanthus biopolymers for applications such as a fuel resources, as part of composite materials, and as feedstock for fractionation in order to extract cellulose, lignin, and other valuable chemicals (hydroxymethylfurfural, furfural, phenols) for the subsequent chemical synthesis of a variety of products. The potentialities of the biotechnological transformation of the Miscanthus biomass into carbohydrate nutrient media and then into the final products of microbiological synthesis are also examined herein.

Abstract
Phytoremediation is a biological soil remediation technique using plants and their associated microorganisms to clean-up contaminated soils and improve soils' quality. We tested whether a co-culture between Miscanthus x giganteus (MxG) and Trifolium repens L. would enhance the soil biological quality. The objective was to determine the influence of MxG in mono- and in co-culture with white clover on the soil microbial activity, biomass and density. MxG was tested in mono- and in co-culture with white clover in a mesocosm over 148 days. The microbial respiration (CO2 production), the microbial biomass and the microbial density of the technosol were measured. Results showed that MxG induced an increase in microbial activity in the technosol compared to the non-planted condition with the co-culture having a greater impact. Regarding the bacterial density, MxG in mono- and in co-culture significantly increased the 16S rDNA gene copy number. The co-culture increased the microbial biomass, the fungal density and stimulated the degrading bacterial population, contrary to the monoculture and the non-planted condition. We can conclude the co-culture between MxG and white clover was more interesting than MxG monoculture in regards to the technosol biological quality and its potential for PAH remediation improvement.

Effect of Heavy-Metal-Resistant PGPR Inoculants on Growth, Rhizosphere Microbiome and Remediation Potential of Miscanthus × giganteus in Zinc-Contaminated Soil. Microorganisms 2023; 11:1516.

Abstract
Microbial-assisted phytoremediation is considered a more effective approach to soil rehabilitation than the sole use of plants. Mycolicibacterium sp. Pb113 and Chitinophaga sp. Zn19, heavy-metal-resistant PGPR strains originally isolated from the rhizosphere of Miscanthus × giganteus, were used as inoculants of the host plant grown in control and zinc-contaminated (1650 mg/kg) soil in a 4-month pot experiment. The diversity and taxonomic structure of the rhizosphere microbiomes, assessed with metagenomic analysis of rhizosphere samples for the 16S rRNA gene, were studied. Principal coordinate analysis showed differences in the formation of the microbiomes, which was affected by zinc rather than by the inoculants. Bacterial taxa affected by zinc and the inoculants, and the taxa potentially involved in the promotion of plant growth as well as in assisted phytoremediation, were identified. Both inoculants promoted miscanthus growth, but only Chitinophaga sp. Zn19 contributed to significant Zn accumulation in the aboveground part of the plant. In this study, the positive effect of miscanthus inoculation with Mycolicibacterium spp. and Chitinophaga spp. was demonstrated for the first time. On the basis of our data, the bacterial strains studied may be recommended to improve the efficiency of M. × giganteus phytoremediation of zinc-contaminated soil.

Abstract
The processing of plant biomass into demanded and economically viable products is currently a recognized global trend. Among alternative energy directions, biomass conversion is the most predictable and sustainable carbon resource that can replace fossil fuels. Already today, plant biomass provides almost 25% of the world’s energy supply. This review provides information on the most promising areas of chemical and biotechnological processing of the biomass of such an energy plant as miscanthus. The choice of miscanthus is due to its high yield (up to 40 t/ha of sown area) and high energy yield (140–560 GJ/ha) compared to other plant materials. In addition, miscanthus is able to grow on marginal lands and does not require special agronomic measures, while in the process of its cultivation, the soil is enriched with organic substances and it is cleaned from pollutants. The review reflects the directions of processing of native biomass and pretreated biomass. Miscanthus biomass, in addition to processing into energy resources, can be fractionated and transformed into many high-value products - cellulose, cellulose nitrates, ethylene, hydroxymethylfurfural, furfural, phenols, ethylene glycol, cooking solutions after nitric acid pretreatment of miscanthus biomass can act as lignohumic fertilizers. In addition, on the basis of miscanthus cellulose hydrolysates, it is possible to obtain benign nutrient media for biotechnological transformation into bacterial nanocellulose, for the accumulation and isolation of various microbial enzymes.

Abstract
The demand for rhizoremediation technology that can minimize greenhouse gas emissions while effectively removing pollutants in order to mitigate climate change has increased. The inoculation effect of N2O-reducing Pseudomonas sp. TF716 on N2O emissions and on remediation performance during the rhizoremediation of diesel-contaminated soil planted with tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea) or maize (Zea mays) was investigated. Pseudomonas sp. TF716 was isolated from the rhizosphere soil of tall fescue. The maximum N2O reduction rate of TF716 was 18.9 mmol N2O g dry cells−1 h−1, which is superior to the rates for previously reported Pseudomonas spp. When Pseudomonas sp. TF716 was added to diesel-contaminated soil planted with tall fescue, the soil N2O-reduction potential was 2.88 times higher than that of soil with no inoculation during the initial period (0–19 d), and 1.08–1.13 times higher thereafter. However, there was no enhancement in the N2O-reduction potential for the soil planted with maize following inoculation with strain TF716. In addition, TF716 inoculation did not significantly affect diesel degradation during rhizoremediation, suggesting that the activity of those microorganisms involved in diesel degradation was unaffected by TF716 treatment. Analysis of the dynamics of the bacterial genera associated with N2O reduction showed that Pseudomonas had the highest relative abundance during the rhizoremediation of diesel-contaminated soil planted with tall fescue and treated with strain TF716. Overall, these results suggest that N2O emissions during the rhizoremediation of diesel-contaminated soil using tall fescue can be reduced with the addition of Pseudomonas sp. TF716.

Abstract
Land that has little to no utility for agriculture or industry is considered marginal land. This kind of terrain is frequently found on the edge of deserts or other arid regions. The amount of land that can be used for agriculture continues to be constrained by increasing desertification, which is being caused by climate change and the deterioration of agriculturally marginal areas. Plants and associated microorganisms are used to remediate and enhance the soil quality of marginal land. They represent a low-cost and usually long-term solution for restoring soil fertility. Among various phytoremediation processes (viz., phytodegradation, phytoextraction, phytostabilization, phytovolatilization, phytofiltration, phytostimulation, and phytodesalination), the employment of a specific mechanism is determined by the state of the soil, the presence and concentration of contaminants, and the plant species involved. This review focuses on the key economically important plants used for phytoremediation, as well as the challenges to plant growth and phytoremediation capability with emphasis on the advantages and limits of plant growth in marginal land soil. Plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) boost plant development and promote soil bioremediation by secreting a variety of metabolites and hormones, through nitrogen fixation, and by increasing other nutrients' bioavailability through mineral solubilization. This review also emphasizes the role of PGPB under different abiotic stresses, including heavy-metal-contaminated land, high salinity environments, and organic contaminants. In our opinion, the improved soil fertility of marginal lands using PGPB with economically significant plants (e.g., Miscanthus) in dual precession technology will result in the reclamation of general agriculture as well as the restoration of native vegetation.
