The combined effects of lanthanum-modified bentonite and Vallisneria spiralis on phosphorus, dissolved organic matter, and heavy metal(loid)s. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 917:170502. [PMID: 38301791 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.170502] [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: 12/07/2023] [Revised: 01/10/2024] [Accepted: 01/25/2024] [Indexed: 02/03/2024]
Abstract
The use of lanthanum-modified bentonite (LMB) combined with Vallisneria spiralis (V∙s) (LMB + V∙s) is a common method for controlling internal phosphorus (P) release from sediments. However, the behaviors of iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn) under LMB + V∙s treatments, as well as the associated coupling effect on P, dissolved organic matter (DOM), and heavy metal(loid)s (HMs), require further investigations. Therefore, we used in this study a microelectrode system and high-resolution dialysis technology (HR-Peeper) to study the combined effects of LMB and V∙s on P, DOM, and HMs through a 66-day incubation experiment. The LMB + V∙s treatment increased the sediment DO concentration, promoting in-situ formations of Fe (III)/Mn (IV) oxyhydroxides, which, in turn, adsorbed P, soluble tungsten (W), DOM, and HMs. The increase in the concentrations of HCl-P, amorphous and poorly crystalline (oxyhydr) oxides-bound W, and oxidizable HMs forms demonstrated the capacity of the LMB + V∙s treatment to transform mobile P, W, and other HMs forms into more stable forms. The significant positive correlations between SRP, soluble W, UV254, and soluble Fe (II)/Mn, and the increased concentrations of the oxidizable HMs forms suggested the crucial role of the Fe/Mn redox in controlling the release of SRP, DOM, and HMs from sediments. The LMB + V∙s treatment resulted in SRP, W, and DOM removal rates of 74.49, 78.58, and 54.78 %, which were higher than those observed in the control group (without LMB and V∙s applications). On the other hand, the single and combined uses of LMB and V·s influenced the relative abundances of the sediment microbial communities without exhibiting effects on microbial diversity. This study demonstrated the key role of combined LMB and V∙s applications in controlling the release of P, W, DOM, and HMs in eutrophic lakes.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 455:131580. [PMID: 37167872 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2023.131580] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2022] [Revised: 04/25/2023] [Accepted: 05/03/2023] [Indexed: 05/13/2023]
Abstract
The mobilization of trace metals in the rhizosphere can be affected by the redox potential, which is closely related to the O2 dynamics. This study examined the distributions of O2 and trace metals in the rhizosphere of the subaquatic hyperaccumulator Leersia hexandra Swartz under chromium (Cr) stress using planar optodes and the diffusive gradients in thin films technique coupled with laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. The O2 concentrations and oxidized areas in the rhizosphere significantly increased with increases in the light intensity, air humidity, and atmospheric CO2 concentrations (p < 0.05). The O2 concentration first increased with increasing ambient temperatures, then decreased when the temperature increased from 25 to 32 ℃. The O2 concentration in the rhizosphere was significantly decreased under Cr stress (p < 0.05), with a prolonged response time to the altered ambient temperature. Cr stress led to decreased mobilities of As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mo, Ni, Sb, V, W, and Zn in the rhizosphere, which were negatively correlated with the concentrations of O2. These results provide new insights into the role of changes in the O2 concentration induced by the roots of hyperaccumulator plants in controlling the mobility of trace metals in soils.

Vertical characterisation of phylogenetic divergence of microbial community structures, interaction, and sustainability in estuary and marine ecosystems. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2022; 851:158369. [PMID: 36049676 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.158369] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2022] [Revised: 08/24/2022] [Accepted: 08/24/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
The changes in the aquatic environmental conditions often influence the microbial community assemblages and genome repertoire. Studies investigating the aquatic diversity and ecosystem services were primarily conducted in horizontal environments while neglecting the microbial phylogenetic divergences, biotrophic interactions, and eco-sustainability at water vertical layers. We investigated the mechanisms of microbial transitions, and the ecological significance of water depth layers in the estuary and marine ecosystems. The results demonstrated that the salinity and turbidity increased with increasing water depth (0-50 m), while temperature and pH decreased significantly. The bacterial and eukaryotic diversity and composition significantly increased with an elevating water depth. Bacterial phyla such as Desulfobacterota, Acidobacteriota, Myxococcota, Gemmatimonadota, Campilobacterota, and Latescibacterota were increased significantly. However, niche preference occurred, and some microbes showed differential nestedness at water vertical layers. In the eukaryotic community, Eustigmatales group were the only clades predominantly phylogenetically nested at the surface water depth. c_Conoidasida, o_Gregarinasina, f_Eugregarinorida, and g_Lankesteria were the most predominant at the middle depth. While Mediophyceae clades, p_SAR, and the Animalia clades were the most predominant groups nested at the bottom depths. The microbial interaction, structure, and stability were increased with increasing depth. The vertical phylogenetic turnover of the microbial community was related to the feeding mechanisms. Phototrophic organisms were particularly adapted at the surface, and middle depth by parasitic and pathogenic organisms, while the bottom was inhabited by diatoms, decomposers, and detritus protists. This study demonstrated that the bottom depth was the most ecologically stable area with more profound ecosystem services.
