Abstract
Harmful cyanobacterial blooms (HCBs) frequently occur in eutrophic freshwater ecosystems worldwide. Microcystins (MCs) are considered to be the most prominent and toxic metabolites during HCBs. MCs may be harmful to human and animal health through drinking water and recreational water. Biodegradation is eco-friendly, cost-effective and one of the most effective methods to remove MCs. Many novel MC-degrading bacteria and their potential for MCs degradation have been documented. However, it is a challenge to apply the free MC-degrading bacterial cells in natural environments due to the long-term operational instability and difficult recycling. Immobilization is the process of restricting the mobility of bacteria using carriers, which has several advantages as biocatalysts compared to free bacterial cells. Biological water treatment systems with microbial immobilization technology can potentially be utilized to treat MC-polluted wastewater. In this review article, various types of supporting materials and methods for microbial immobilization and the application of bacterial immobilization technology for the treatment of MCs-contaminated water are discussed. This article may further broaden the application of microbial immobilization technology to the bioremediation of MC-polluted environments.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2022; 29:18495-18507. [PMID: 34689298 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-021-17125-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2021] [Accepted: 10/16/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Biosorption of cadmium by growing bacteria immobilized on the three magnetic biochars derived from rice straw (MRSB-pellet), sewage sludge (MSSB-pellet), and chicken manure (MCMB-pellet) was investigated, respectively. Total biosorption capacity of the pellets was tested under varying range of pH, culture time, and initial Cd2+ concentration. The maximum biosorption capacity of 93.02 mg/g was obtained with MRSB-pellet, followed by MSSB-pellet (68.02 mg/g) and MCMB-pellet (63.95 mg/g). The biosorption by these immobilized bacterial pellets was more effective than free bacteria; this enhancement could be the result of simultaneous adsorption and bioaccumulation, mainly resulting from magnetic biochar carrier and active bacteria, respectively. The biosorption process by immobilized pellets was primarily driven by ion exchange and complexation, which jointly contributed 73.56% (MRSB-pellet) to 78.62% (MSSB-pellet) of the total adsorption, while the mechanisms of chemical precipitation and physical adsorption could averagely contribute 6.91% (MSSB-pellet) and 11.24% (MRSB-pellet), respectively. Intracellular accumulation was comparably tiny among these mechanisms accounting for 4.30-5.92% of total biosorption; in turn, it would keep intracellular Cd2+ concentration below a toxic threshold to maintain cell activity. These suggested that magnetic biochar immobilized bacteria, particularly MRSB-pellet, could be used as an effective biosorbent to remove the Cd2+ from the growth medium. This study further deepened our understanding of biosorption process by microorganism immobilized onto magnetic biochar for the metal removal.

Abstract
The remediation of organic pollutant-heavy metal co-contaminated soil is a great challenge. Immobilized microorganism technology (IMT) is a potential approach to remediate co-contaminated soil. In this study, we evaluated the feasibility of IMT for the remediation of petroleum hydrocarbon-heavy metal nickel (Ni) co-contaminated soil. The Ni resistant and hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria strain Citrobacter sp. was added to co-contaminated soil by immobilizing on corncob biochar. The potential performance in biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbon and changing the mobility and speciation of nickel (Ni) in soil were determined, with consideration of the influences of the soil properties and dehydrogenase activity. The results demonstrated that the degradation rate of petroleum hydrocarbons by immobilized microorganisms group (IM) was 45.52%, significantly higher than that of the free bacteria (30.15%), biochar (25.92%) and blank group (18.47%) (P<0.05). At the same time, IM was more effective in immobilizing Ni in the soil by transforming available Ni to a stable fraction with a maximum residual concentration increasing by 101.50 mg·kg-1, and the carcinogenic nickel sulfide was not detected after remediation in IM. IM exhibited a higher level of soil dehydrogenase activity (0.3956 μg·mL-1·h-1·g-1) than that of free bacteria (0.2878 μg·mL-1·h-1·g-1). A linear correlation was found between the petroleum pollutants degradation rate and dehydrogenase activity (P<0.05). This study indicates the effectiveness and potential of IMT application in degrading petroleum hydrocarbon and immobilizing heavy metals in co-contaminated soil.

BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2021; 336:125326. [PMID: 34052544 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2021.125326] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2021] [Revised: 05/17/2021] [Accepted: 05/19/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
A kind of gel beads loaded with iron-carbon powder (Fe-C), Zoogloea sp. L2, and riboflavin (VB2) were prepared through cross-linking of sodium alginate (SA) to establish an immobilized bioreactor. The optimal ratio of SA beads was adjusted by orthogonal experiment. The change of oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) and the concentration of Fe2+ and Fe3+ showed that the addition of VB2 as a redox mediator can promote denitrification. Under the optimal conditions (carbon to nitrogen (C/N) ratio = 2.0, pH = 7.0, and hydraulic retention time (HRT) = 8 h), the nitrate removal efficiency (NRE) of bioreactor reached 98.48% (1.99 mg L-1h-1). Furthermore, Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR), Fluorescence excitation-emission matrix (EEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and gas chromatography (GC) analysis revealed that the immobilization and denitrification of the immobilized bioreactor were excellent. High throughput sequencing also showed that Zoogloea played a vital role in nitrate removal.

Al2O3 Nanoparticles Promote the Removal of Carbamazepine in Water by Chlorella vulgaris Immobilized in Sodium Alginate Gel Beads. J CHEM-NY 2020.

Abstract
The roles of Al2O3 nanoparticles on the removal of carbamazepine (CBZ) by Chlorella vulgaris immobilized in sodium alginate gel beads were for the first time investigated. The optimum conditions to prepare immobilized C. vulgaris beads with addition of Al2O3 nanoparticles were determined as follows: C. vulgaris density was 3.0 × 106 cells for 1 mL sodium alginate solution, Al2O3 nanoparticle concentration was 0.5 g/L, and concentrations of sodium alginate and CaCl2 were 1.6% and 1%, respectively. The results showed that the proposed algae beads achieved the highest CBZ removal rate of 89.6% after 4 days of treatment, relative to 68.84%, 48.56%, and 17.76% in sodium alginate-immobilized C. vulgaris, free microalgae, and Al2O3 nanoparticle alginate beads, respectively. The results also showed that the CBZ removal rate increased with more proposed algae beads, while decreased with increased bead diameter. The algae beads exhibited excellent CBZ removal ability even after three recycles. This work provided an economical and effective approach to remove CBZ from water.
