Abstract
The feasibility of a simultaneous nitrification, denitrification and fermentation process (SNDF) under electric stirrer agitation conditions was verified in a single reactor. Enhanced activated sludge for phenol degradation and denitrification in pharmaceutical phenol-containing wastewater under low dissolved oxygen conditions, additional inoculation with Comamonas sp. BGH and optimisation of co-metabolites were investigated. At a hydraulic residence time (HRT) of 28 h, 15 mg/L of substrate as strain BGH co-metabolised substrate degraded 650 ± 50 mg/L phenol almost completely and was accompanied by an incremental increase in the quantity of strain BGH. Strain BGH showed enhanced phenol degradation. Under trisodium citrate co-metabolism, strain BGH combined with activated sludge treated phenol wastewater and degraded NO2--N from 50 ± 5 to 0 mg/L in only 7 h. The removal efficiency of this group for phenol, chemical oxygen demand (COD) and TN was 99.67%, 90.25% and 98.71%, respectively, at an HRT of 32 h. The bioaugmentation effect not only promotes the degradation of pollutants, but also increases the abundance of dominant bacteria in activated sludge. Illumina MiSeq sequencing research showed that strain BGH promoted the growth of dominant genera (Acidaminobacter, Raineyella, Pseudarcobacter) and increased their relative abundance in the activated sludge system. These genera are resistant to toxicity and organic matter degradation. This paper provides some reference for the activated sludge to degrade high phenol pharmaceutical wastewater under the action of biological enhancement.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 252:118777.

Abstract
Anaerobic digestion of phenolic wastewater by anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) has revealed increasing attractiveness, but the application of AnMBRs for treating high-strength phenolic wastewater faces challenges related to elevated phenol stress and membrane fouling. In this study, the coupling of AnMBR and polyaluminum chloride (PAC) was developed for efficient treatment of high-strength phenolic wastewater. The system achieved robust removal efficiencies of phenol (99%) and quinoline (98%) at a gradual increase of phenol concentration from 1000 to 5000 mg/L and a constant quinoline concentration of 100 mg/L. The dosing of PAC could effectively control the membrane fouling rate with the transmembrane pressure (TMP) increasing rate as low as 0.17 kPa/d. The robust performances were mainly attributed to the favorable retention of functional microbes through membrane interception, while pulse cross flow buffered against phenol stress and facilitated cake layer removal. Meanwhile, the enriched core functional microbes, such as Syntrophorhabdus, Syntrophus, Mesotoga and Methanolinea, played a crucial role in further reduction of phenol stress. Notably, the significant presence of biomacromolecule degrader, such as Levilinea, contributed to membrane fouling mitigation through extracellular polymer degradation. Moreover, the enlargement of particle size distribution (PSD) by PAC was expected to mitigate membrane fouling. This study provided a promising avenue for sustainable treatment of high-strength phenolic wastewater.

Abstract
The influence of enrichment of culturable microorganisms in in situ coal seams on biomethane production potential of other coal seams has been rarely studied. In this study, we enriched culturable microorganisms from three in situ coal seams with three coal ranks and conducted indoor anaerobic biomethane production experiments. Microbial community composition, gene functions, and metabolites in different culture units by 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing combined with liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry-time-of-flight (LC-MS-TOF). The results showed that biomethane production in the bituminous coal group (BC)cc resulted in the highest methane yield of 243.3 μmol/g, which was 12.3 times higher than that in the control group (CK). Meanwhile, Methanosarcina was the dominant archaeal genus in the three experimental groups (37.42 ± 11.16-52.62 ± 2.10%), while its share in the CK was only 2.91 ± 0.48%. Based on the functional annotation, the relative abundance of functional genes in the three experimental groups was mainly related to the metabolism of nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds such as purines and pyrimidines. Metabolite analysis showed that enriched microorganisms promoted the degradation of a total of 778 organic substances in bituminous coal, including 55 significantly different metabolites (e.g., purines and pyrimidines). Based on genomic and metabolomic analyses, this paper reconstructed the heterocyclic compounds degradation coupled methane metabolism pathway and thereby preliminarily elucidated that enriched culturable bacteria from different coal-rank seams could promote the degradation of bituminous coal and intensify biogenic methane yields.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated the effects of salinity on elemental sulfur-driven autotrophic denitrification (SAD) efficiency, and microbial communities. The results revealed that when the salinity was ≤6 g/L, the nitrate removal efficiency in SAD increased with the increasing salinity reaching 95.53% at 6 g/L salinity. Above this salt concentration, the performance of SAD gradually decreased, and the nitrate removal efficiency decreased to 33.63% at 25 g/L salinity. Approximately 5 mg/L of the hazardous nitrite was detectable at 15 g/L salinity, but decreased at 25 g/L salinity, accompanied by the generation of ammonium. When the salinity was ≥15 g/L, the abundance of the salt-tolerant microorganisms, Thiobacillus and Sulfurimonas, increased, while that of other microbial species decreased. This study provides support for the practical application of elemental sulfur-driven autotrophic denitrification in saline nitrate wastewater.

Abstract
Spirulina powder emerged as a novel and suitable co-metabolism substance significantly enhancing the anaerobic degradation of specific nitrogen heterocyclic compounds. On the addition of 1.0 mg/L of Spirulina powder, the reactor demonstrated optimal degradation efficiency for quinoline and indole, achieving ratios of 99.77 ± 1.83% and 99.57 ± 1.98%, respectively. Moreover, the incorporation of Spirulina powder resulted in increased concentrations of mixed liquor suspended solids, mixed liquor volatile suspended solids, proteins, and polysaccharides in anaerobic sludge. In addition, Spirulina powder led to reduced levels of Acinetobacter and enriched Aminicenantes genera incertae sedis, Levilinea, and Longilinea. The analysis of the archaeal community structure confirmed that the addition of Spirulina powder increased archaeal sequences, fostering greater richness and diversity in the archaeal community.

Abstract
Coal chemical wastewater (CCW) is a type of refractory industrial wastewater, and its treatment has become the main bottleneck restricting the sustainable development of novel coal chemical industry. Biological treatment is considered as an economical, effective and environmentally friendly technology for CCW treatment. However, conventional biological process is difficult to achieve the efficient removal of refractory organics because of CCW with the characteristics of composition complexity and high toxicity. Therefore, seeking the novel enhancement strategy appears to be a favorable solution for enhancing biological treatment efficiency of CCW. This review focuses on presenting a comprehensive picture about the exogenous enhancement strategies for CCW biological treatment. The performance and potential application of exogenous enhancement strategies, including co-metabolic substrate enhancement, biofilm filler enhancement, adsorption material enhancement and conductive mediator enhancement, were expounded. Meanwhile, the enhancing mechanisms of different strategies were comprehensively discussed from a biological perspective. Furthermore, the prospects of enhancement strategies based on the engineering performance, economic cost and environmental impact (3E) evaluation were introduced. And novel enhancement strategy based on "low carbon emissions", "resource recycling" and "water environment security" in the context of carbon neutrality was proposed. Taken together, this review provides technical reference and new direction to facilitate the regulation and optimization of typical industrial wastewater biological treatment.

Abstract
In order to address the problems of poor treatment effect of coal chemical wastewater (CCW) biochemical treatment system resulting in non-compliance with effluent standards and unstable operation, a combination regulation method of co-substrate metabolism and predominant flora enhancement was constructed, and the performance and mechanism of enhanced degradation of aromatics in CCW was also investigated in this study. The results showed that when the influent concentration of chemical oxygen demand (COD) and aromatics was less than 600 mg/L and 180 mg/L respectively, there was no significant effect of the combined regulation method on the enhanced treatment of aromatics, the removal rate of total organic carbon (TOC) in the system could all more than 73%; while when the influent concentration of COD increased to 800 mg/L and the aromatics concentration increased to more than 240 mg/L, the ordinary activated sludge system had collapsed. Compared with the regulation method of co-substrate metabolism alone, the combination regulation method increased the removal rate of TOC by 21%. The analysis of antioxidant enzyme activity showed that under the combination regulation method, the antioxidant enzyme activity of microorganisms was higher and their resistance to adverse environments was stronger. EPS and dehydrogenase analysis indicated that the combination regulation method was more conducive to microbial degradation of aromatics. Meanwhile, the analysis of microbial community structure showed that the aromatics degradation bacteria genera Rhodococcus, Luteococcus, etc. were enriched under the combination regulation method. The study provides a theoretical basis and technical guidance for solving the problems of unstable operation of CCW biochemical treatment systems and non-compliance with effluent standards.

Abstract
At present, the common problems of biochemical treatment systems of coal chemical wastewater were the poor system stability and the difficulty in reaching COD discharge standards. Aromatic compounds were the main contributors to COD value. The effective removal of aromatic compounds was an urgent problem in the biochemical treatment systems of coal chemical wastewater. In this study, the dominant microbial strains that could degrade phenol, quinoline, and phenanthrene were isolated respectively and inoculated into the pilot scale biochemical tank of coal chemical wastewater. The regulation effect and mechanism of microbial metabolism on the efficient degradation of aromatic compounds were studied. The results indicated that the various aromatic compounds were significantly removed under the regulation of microbial metabolism, the removal efficiencies of COD, TOC, phenols, benzenes, N-CHs, and PAHs were increased by about 25%, 20%, 33%, 25%, 42%, and 45%, respectively, and their biotoxicity was also drastically reduced. Moreover, the abundance and diversity of microbial community, and the microbial activity were obviously improved, as well as the various functional strains were selectively enriched, suggesting that the regulation system could resist environmental stresses with high substrate concentration and toxicity, which could lead to more enhanced performance for aromatic compounds removal. In addition, the microbial EPS content was significantly increased, implying the formation of microbial hydrophobic cell surfaces, which could improve the bioavailability of aromatic compounds. Furthermore, the enzymatic activity analysis revealed that the relative abundance and activity of key enzymes were all obviously improved. In conclusion, multiple lines of evidence were provided to clarify the regulation mechanism of microbial metabolism on the efficient degradation of aromatic compounds for biochemical treatment process of coal chemical wastewater in pilot scale. The results laid a good foundation for realizing the harmless treatment of coal chemical wastewater.

Abstract
This study investigated the culture and characteristics of quinoline-degraded aerobic granular sludge (AGS) under 8-h and 12-h cycle duration. According to results, the cultivation of an 8-h cycle duration enhanced the growth of quinoline-degraded AGS, as well as the settleability of sludge and the retention of biomass. Quinoline can be removed from mature AGS at a rate of more than 90%, but it is removed at a rate slightly higher when the AGS are cultured for 12-h. Compared to 12-h cycle duration, 8-h cycle duration result in a greater increase in the production of extracellular polymeric substances, particularly extracellular proteins. In these two systems, Acidovorax and Paracoccus dominated the quinoline degrading bacteria. In addition, analysis by non-metric multidimensional scaling (based on Bray-curtis distance) showed significant differences of community structure between the two reactors. Clostridia and Acidaminobacter are different bacteria with an 8-h cycle duration compared to 12 h. Relative abundance of nitrogen metabolism genes based on PICRUSt2 prediction, which explain the better total nitrogen removal for an 8-h cycle duration compared to a 12-h cycle duration. Finally, the KEGG pathway was analyzed in order to confirm the results of the microbial analysis.

Abstract
Manganese (Mn(II)) pollution has recently increased and requires efficient remediation. In this study, Serratia marcescens QZB-1, isolated from acidic red soil, exhibited high tolerance against Mn(II) (up to 364 mM). Strain QZB-1 removed a total of 98.4% of 18 mM Mn(II), with an adsorption rate of 71.4% and oxidation rate of 28.6% after incubation for 48 h. The strain synthesized more protein (PN) to absorb Mn(II) when stimulated with Mn(II). The pH value of the cultural medium continuously increased during the Mn(II) removal process. The product crystal composition (mainly MnO2 and MnCO3), Mn-O functional group, and element-level fluctuations confirmed Mn oxidation. Overall, strain QZB-1 efficiently removed high concentration of Mn(II) mainly via adsorption and showed great potential for manganese wastewater removal.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2022; 311:119932. [PMID: 35973449 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2022.119932] [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: 04/07/2022] [Revised: 07/20/2022] [Accepted: 08/06/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
To better promote environment friendly development of the coal chemical industry, this study investigated effects of methanol, sodium citrate, and chlorella powder (a type of microalgae) as co-metabolic substances on enhanced anaerobic treatment of coal pyrolysis wastewater with anaerobic sludge. The anaerobic sludge was loaded into four 2 L anaerobic reactors for co-metabolism enhanced anaerobic experiments. Anaerobic reactor 1 (R1) as control group did not add a co-metabolic substance; anaerobic reactor 2 (R2) added methanol; anaerobic reactor 3 (R3) added sodium citrate; and anaerobic reactor 4 (R4) added chlorella powder. In the blank control group, the removal ratios of total phenol (TPh), quinoline, and indole were only 12.07%, 42.15%, and 50.47%, respectively, indicating that 50 mg/L quinoline, 50 mg/L indole, and 600 mg/L TPh produced strong toxicity inhibition function on the anaerobic microorganism in reactor. When the concentration of methanol, sodium citrate, and chlorella was 400 μg/L, the reactors with co-metabolic substances had better treatment effect on TPh. Among them, the strengthening effects of sodium citrate (TPh removal ratio: 44.87%) and chlorella (47.85%) were better than that of methanol (38.72%) and the control group (10.62%). Additionally, the reactors with co-metabolic substances had higher degradation ratios on quinoline, indole, and chemical oxygen demand (COD). The data of extracellular polymeric substances showed that with the co-metabolic substances, anaerobic microorganisms produced more humic acids by degrading phenols and nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds (NHCs). Compared with the control group, the reactors added with sodium citrate and chlorella had larger average particle size of sludge. Thus, sodium citrate and chlorella could improve sludge sedimentation performance by increasing the sludge particle size. The bacterial community structures of reactors were explored and the results showed that Aminicenantes genera incertae sedis, Levinea, Geobacter, Smithella, Brachymonas, and Longilinea were the main functional bacteria in reactor added with chlorella.

A novel cross-flow honeycomb bionic carrier promotes simultaneous nitrification, denitrification and phosphorus removal in IFAS system: Performance, mechanism and keystone species. WATER RESEARCH 2022; 225:119132. [PMID: 36155005 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2022.119132] [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: 07/12/2022] [Revised: 09/13/2022] [Accepted: 09/16/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Simultaneously achieving efficient nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) removal without adding external carbon source is vital for carbon-neutral wastewater treatment. In this study, a novel cross-flow honeycomb bionic microbial carrier (CF) was developed to improve the efficiency of simultaneous nitrification, denitrification, and P removal (SNDPR) in an integrated fixed-film activated sludge (IFAS) system. A parallel laboratory-scale sequencing batch reactor with the commercialized microbial carriers (CM) (CM-IFAS) was performed as the comparative system for over 233 d The results demonstrated that CF-IFAS exhibited a more consistent N removal efficiency and better performance than CM-IFAS. In the CF-IFAS, the highest N and P removal efficiencies were 95.40% and 100%, respectively. Typical cycle analysis revealed that nitrate was primarily removed by the denitrifying glycogen-accumulating organisms in the CF-IFAS and by denitrifying phosphate-accumulating organisms in the CM-IFAS. The neutral community model showed that the microbial community assembly in both the reactors was driven by deterministic selection rather than stochastic factors. Compared to those in CM-IFAS, the microorganisms in CF-IFAS were more closely related to each other and had more keystone species: norank_f_norank_o_norank_c_OM190, SM1A02, Defluviicoccus, norank_f_ Saprospiraceae, and norank_f_Rhodocyclaceae. The absolute contents of the genes associated with N removal (bacterial amoA, archaeal amoA, NarG, NapA, NirS, and NirK) were higher in CF-IFAS than in CM-IFAS; the N cycle activity was also stronger in the CF-IFAS. Overall, the microecological environment differed between both systems. This study provides novel insights into the potential of bionic carriers to improve SNDPR performance by shaping microbial communities, thereby providing scientific guidance for practical engineering.

Abstract
In this study, biocathode system coupled with different co-metabolism conditions (NaAc, glucose and NaHCO3) were developed to degrade quinolones enrofloxacin (ENR) due to its poorly metabolization, easily accumulation and potential toxicity. Simultaneously, ENR reduction kinetic rate constant in NaAc-fed, glucose-fed and NaHCO3-fed biocathodes, and sole biocathode were increased by 343.62%, 320.46%, 189.19% and 130.88% when compared with that of abiotic cathode when the operational time and ENR concentration were set to 48 h and 25 mg/L. In addition, transformation pathways of ENR revealed pathway II were dominantly occurred in NaAc- and glucose-fed biocathode while pathway IV acting as key metabolic process were shown in NaHCO3-fed biocathode. Moreover, 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing analysis indicated that biocathodic communities were sensitive to switch-over of carbon source, namely Delftia and Bosea as organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRB) were abundant in NaAc- and glucose-fed biocathodes while Mesotoga and Syntrophorhabdus that responsible for benzoyl-CoA metabolic process were enriched in NaHCO3-fed biocathode. Overall, this study could unravel the underlying relationship between biocathode degradation pattern of ENR and different co-metabolism conditions, and further offer valuable scientific information on treating refractory quinolones antibiotics via green bioelectrochemical method.

Abstract
The long-term moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) with carrier-attached biofilm was successfully operated for simultaneous removal of nitrogen, phosphorus, and COD at various C/N ratios. Results indicated that 99.60%, 63.58%, 78.94%, and 59.64% of NH4+-N, NO3--N, TN, and TP were removed at C/N ratio, hydraulic retention time (HRT), and carrier film amount of 5, 40 h, and 1.2 mg·g-1. Nitrogen balance analysis showed that more than 89% of nitrogen (C/N = 20, 15, 10, 5) was converted to gas products. Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), electron transport system activity (ETSA), and enzyme activity of biofilm were evaluated. Protein (PN)/polysaccharose (PS) values and ETSA decreased with the decrease of C/N ratios. Metagenomics sequencing further revealed that the prominent phyla for nitrogen and phosphorus removal were identified including Proteobacteria, Acidobacteria, Nitrospirae, and Chloroflexi. Proteobacteriaand Gammaproteobacteria were identified as the dominant denitrifying phosphate accumulating organisms (PAO) at the phylum and class level, respectively.

Abstract
A coupling system of sodium citrate and biofilm based on polyurethane was prepared to analyse the coupling enhancement degradation on quinoline and indole. Four reactors (R1: sludge, R2: sludge + sodium citrate, R3: biofilm on polyurethane, and R4: biofilm + sodium citrate) were operated 120 days to compare the degradation efficiency. During whole running phases, R4 showed high degradation efficiency on quinoline (≥98.55%) and indole (≥95.44%). Analysis of bacterial colony showed anaerobic sludge reactors benefited the enrichment of Aminicenantes, Levilinea, and Longilinea, while anaerobic biofilm reactors benefited the enrichment of Giesbergeria and Comamonas. Furthermore, analysis of archaea colony showed acetic acid metabolism to produce methane was the main mode in anaerobic sludge reactors, while acetic acid and hydrogen metabolism to produce methane were both the main modes in biofilm reactors. This study can provide some references for the treatment of nitrogen heterocyclic wastewater.

Abstract
The co-contamination of groundwater with nitrate (NO3--N) and manganese (Mn(II)) is a global issue that needs to be efficiently remediated. In this research, a novel denitrifying and manganese-oxidizing strain HY129 was isolated from the sediments sample of a drinking water and identified as Cupriavidus sp. HY129. The remediation ability of strain HY129 regarding the nitrate and Mn(II) pollution were investigated. The removal efficiency of nitrate and Mn(II) were 99.81% (0.229 mgL-1 h-1) and 87.24% (0.233 mgL-1 h-1) in bacterial culture after 72 h, respectively. Moreover, the addition of Mn(II) significantly enhanced the denitrification process, while excessive concentration of Mn(II) caused more NO2--N accumulation. The impacts of adsorption and oxidation activity on Mn(II) removal were investigated. Protein in extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) which produced in the Mn-oxidizing process was speculated to be the main cause of extracellular adsorption of Mn(II). Characterization of biogenic manganese oxides (BMO) confirmed the formation of high-valent manganese and the trapping experiment with sodium pyrophosphate (NaPP) demonstrated the existence of Mn(III)-intermediates. Furthermore, multicopper oxidase gene amplification provided evidence for the molecular biology of Mn(II) oxidation by strain HY129.

Abstract
In this study, brewery wastewater was used as the treatment in exploring the optimal conditions and maximum processing efficiency of the completely mixed anaerobic biofilm reactor (CMABR) under the conditions of hydraulic retention time (HRT) (18 h, 24 h, and 30 h) with a rotational speed (70 rpm, 100 rpm, and 130 rpm) and influent total alkalinity (TA) (20 mmol/L, 25 mmol/L, and 30 mmol/L), which was measured by the response surface methodology (RSM). The results indicated that the maximum chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal ratio was achieved under the following conditions: HRT of 21.42 h, rotational speed of 101.34 rpm, and influent TA of 25.22 mmol/L. Analysis by scanning electron microscope (SEM) showed that the microorganisms were successfully immobilized on the polyurethane fillers before the reactor began operation. High-throughput sequencing indicated that Methanothrix and Methanospirillum were the dominant contributors for COD removal in the CAMBR under these optimum conditions.

Abstract
Petrochemical industrial effluent contains industrial wastewater from various manufacturing processes. The mixed treatment of these different petrochemical wastewater effluents may influence the organic removal performance of the anaerobic processes. In this study, three typical petrochemical effluents, including polyester (PE), polyethylene terephthalate, and purified terephthalic acid wastewater, were collected. The effect of the mixed petrochemical wastewater on the organic removal and microbial community structure was investigated in the anaerobic batch assays via spectroscopy and high-throughput sequencing. The organic removal efficiencies were similar (71-85%) in all the batch assays for 90 h acclimation. The mixture of wastewater, especially the addition of PE wastewater, significantly prolonged organic removal process. It was related to the aromatic removal performance and microbial community structure during the mixed wastewater treatment. The microbial community structure in the mixed wastewater batch assay showed high similarity with that in the PE wastewater batch assay. Ignavibacterium, Syntrophus, and Pelotomaculum were crucial to the degradation of aromatic compounds together with Methanosaeta. The mixture of wastewater, especially the addition of PE wastewater, caused the decay of these functional microbes and resulted in the inefficient removal of the aromatic compounds.

Abstract
Quinoline is a critical raw material for the dye, metallurgy, pharmaceutical, rubber, and agrochemical industries, and its use poses a serious threat to human health and the ecological environment. Quinoline has carcinogenic, teratogenic and mutagenic effects on the human body through food accumulation. However, due to the steric hindrance of its bicyclic fused structure and its long photooxidation half-life, quinoline is too difficult to decompose naturally. To date, numerous technologies have been used to degrade quinoline, whereas only a few have been reviewed. Therefore, this paper is focused on offering a comprehensive overview of the state of quinoline degradation in an effort to improve its degradation efficiency and fully utilize the carbon and nitrogen within quinoline without causing any damage to the environment. Accordingly, the strains, research progress and mechanisms of various methods for degrading quinoline are explored and elucidated in detail, especially quinoline biodegradation and the combination of these technologies for efficient removal. The state-of-the-art processes and new findings of our team on the biofortification of quinoline degradation are also presented. Finally, research bottlenecks and gaps for future research were identified along with the prospects and resource utilization of quinoline. These discussions facilitate the realization of the zero discharge of quinoline.

[PMID: 32335283 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2020.122688] [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: 01/20/2020] [Revised: 03/14/2020] [Accepted: 04/07/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
To investigate the role of electroactive biofilms for enhanced phenolic degradation, lignite activated coke (LAC) and MAC were used as carriers in moving-bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) for CPW treatment. In contrast to activated sludge (AS) reactor, the carriers improved degradation performance of MBBR. Although two MBBRs exerted similar degradation capacity with over 92% of COD and 93% phenols removal under the highest phenolics concentration (500 mg/L), the effluent of MAC-based MBBR remained higher biodegradability (BOD5/COD = 0.34 vs 0.18) than that of LAC-based MBBR. Metagenomic analysis revealed that electroactive biofilms determined phenolic degradation of MAC-based MBBR. Primarily, Geobacter (17.33%) started Fe redox cycle on biofilms and developed syntrophy with Syntrophorhabdus (6.47%), which fermented phenols into easily biodegradable substrates. Subsequently, Ignavibacterium (3.38% to 2.52%) and Acidovorax (0.46% to 8.83%) conducted biological electricity from electroactive biofilms to suspended sludge. They synergized with dominated genus in suspended sludge, Alicycliphilus (19.56%) that accounted for phenolic oxidation and nitrate reduction. Consequently, the significantly advantage of Geobater and Syntrophorhabdus was the keystone reason for superior biodegradability maintenance of MAC-based MBBR.

Ecological and functional research into microbiomes for targeted phenolic removal in anoxic carbon-based fluidized bed reactor (CBFBR) treating coal pyrolysis wastewater (CPW).

[PMID: 32278997 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2020.123308] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2020] [Revised: 03/31/2020] [Accepted: 04/01/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
Powdered activated carbon (PAC), lignite activated coke (LAC) and Fe-C carriers were applied to enhance CBFBRs to degrade targeted phenolics. In start-up stage, PAC and LAC equipped CBFBRs with higher environment adaptability and phenolic degradation capacity for phenol (>96%), p-cresol (>91%) and 3, 5-dimethylphenol (>84%) in comparison to Fe-C carrier. In recovery stage, the superior performance was also identified for CBFBRs in basis of PAC and LAC than Fe-C-based reactor. However, the Fe-C carrier assisted CBFBR with more stable degradation performance under impact loading. By comparing microbiomes, significantly enriched Brachymonas (54.80%-68.81%) in CBFBRs exerted primary role for phenolic degradation, and positively contributed to microbial network. Meanwhile, Geobacter in Fe-C-based reactor induced excellent impact resistance by enhancing interspecific electron transfer among microbes. Furthermore, the investigation on functional genes related to phenolic degradation revealed that anaerobic pathway accounted for demethylation procedure, while aerobic pathways dominated the phenolic ring-cleavage process.

Abstract
In this study, the feasibility of quinoline-wastewater treatment was investigated in a coupled microbial electrolysis cell and anaerobic digestion system (MEC-AD). Improved degradation and enhanced mineralization of quinoline were obtained, and the optimal voltage was determined to be 1.0 V. Effective removal of quinoline at relative high concentration, and a 1.5-fold increase in methane production were achieved. The results indicated that the MEC-AD could simultaneously remove carbon and nitrogen from quinoline. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis identified 2-hydroxyquinoline and 8-hydroxycoumarin as the intermediates of quinoline. The formation and degradation of metabolites were rapid, and they did not accumulate in the MEC-AD. The results of microbial community structure analysis demonstrated that the functional species were enriched and coexisted, and that the dominant bacterial genera were SM1A02, Comamonas, Desulfovibrio, Geobacter, and Actinomarinales_norank; the dominant archaeal genera were Methanocorpusculum and Nitrosoarchaeum. Furthermore, the applied current played a selective role in the enrichment of microorganisms.
