Abstract
Azo dyes are largely used in many industries and discharged in large volumes of their effluents into the aquatic environment giving rise to non-esthetic pollution and health-risk problems. Due to the high stability of azo dyes in ambient conditions, they cannot be abated in conventional wastewater treatment plants. Over the last fifteen years, the decontamination of dyeing effluents by persulfate (PS)-based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) has received a great attention. In these methods, PS is activated to be decomposed into sulfate radical anion (SO4•-), which is further partially hydrolyzed to hydroxyl radical (•OH). Superoxide ion (O2•-) and singlet oxygen (1O2) can also be produced as oxidants. This review summarizes the results reported for the discoloration and mineralization of synthetic and real waters contaminated with azo dyes covering up to November 2023. PS activation with iron, non-iron transition metals, and carbonaceous materials catalysts, heat, UVC light, photocatalysis, photodegradation with iron, electrochemical and related processes, microwaves, ozonation, ultrasounds, and other processes is detailed and analyzed. The principles and characteristics of each method are explained with special attention to the operating variables, the different oxidizing species generated yielding radical and non-radical mechanisms, the addition of inorganic anions and natural organic matter, the aqueous matrix, and the by-products identified. Finally, the overall loss of toxicity or partial detoxification of treated azo dye solutions during the PS-based AOPs is discussed.

Novel UV-LED-driven photocatalysis-chlorine activation for carbamazepine degradation by sulfur-doped NH 2-MIL 53 (Fe) composites: Electronic modulation effect and the dual role of chlorine. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 464:133037. [PMID: 37995635 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2023.133037] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2023] [Revised: 11/02/2023] [Accepted: 11/16/2023] [Indexed: 11/25/2023]
Abstract
Chlorine activation-inefficient and the generation of disinfection by-products (DBPs) has indeed limited the application of UV/chlorine process. In this study, the typical metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) NH2-MIL53(Fe) were successfully modified with organic ligands containing sulfur functional groups and applied to construct a novel UV-LED-driven heterogeneous chlorine activation system. The generation of intermediate energy levels and the charge redistribution effect on Fe-S bond facilitated the excitation of electrons and realized the effective separation of photohole (hvb+) and photoelectron (ecb-). The involvement of S-NH2-MIL53(Fe) improved the efficiency of UV-LED/chlorine process by 6 times. The effective activation of HOCl/OCl- by hvb+ and ecb- significantly enhanced the yield of HO· and Cl·. More importantly, HOCl/OCl- played a dual role in UV-LED/chlorine/S-NH2-MIL53(Fe) process as a precursor for the generation of free radicals and a catalyst for the enhancement of HO· yield, which could achieve efficient removal of the target pollutants at lower chlorine doses. In addition, the presence of low-valent sulfur species and ecb- accelerated the cycle of Fe(II)/Fe(III) and in-situ generation of HO· and Cl·. The known generation of DBPs in UV-LED/chlorine/S-NH2-MIL53(Fe) process decreased by 37.9% compared to UV-LED/chlorine process. Developing novel UV-LED/chlorine/S-NH2-MIL53(Fe) processes provided a reliable strategy to efficiently purify actual micro-polluted water bodies.

Novel Magnetic MnFe 2O 4-Decorated Graphite-Like Porous Biochar as a Heterogeneous Catalyst for Activation of Peroxydisulfate Toward Degradation of Rhodamine B. ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:6455-6465. [PMID: 38371805 PMCID: PMC10870279 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.3c06278] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2023] [Revised: 01/18/2024] [Accepted: 01/23/2024] [Indexed: 02/20/2024]
Abstract
A magnetic MnFe2O4-modified graphite-like porous biochar composite (MnFe2O4/KFS800) was synthesized by the hydrothermal method, and its catalytic activity was evaluated in the activation of peroxydisulfate toward degradation of Rhodamine B. After characterization by SEM, XRD, and the BET method, the specific surface area and total pore volume of the MnFe2O4/KFS800 catalyst reached 121 m2/g and 0.263 m3/g, and exhibited plate-like morphology with good crystallinity. The degradation rate of Rhodamine B by the obtained composite was more than 91.1% when the initial concentration of RhB was 10 mg/L, the dosage of MnFe2O4/KFS800 was 0.2 g/L, and the initial pH was 6.7. Then the anti-interference ability of the obtained composite was studied, and it was found that there was a little effect on the degradation of Rhodamine B with the presence of humic acid. Finally, quenching test, EPR research, and XPS analysis were conducted to reveal the catalytic mechanism, and possible mechanism was a synergistic behavior of free radicals (SO4•-, •OH, O2•-) and nonfree radicals (1O2), and trace amounts of uncarbonized bagasse was also involved in the formation of free radicals.

J Colloid Interface Sci 2023; 629:97-110.

Abstract
The synergistic effect between transition metal active centers and the generation of multiple removal pathways has a significant impact on the catalytic activation efficiency of peroxymonosulfate. In this work, a kind of composite catalyst was prepared by growing VCo-metal-organic frameworks (VCo-MOF) in-situ on the surface of Ti3C2Tx by a solvothermal method. The morphology and structure are characterized by Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM), Energy Dispersion Spectrum (EDS), Atomic Force Microscope (AFM), etc. Response surface methodology was used to optimize the experimental conditions. Only 5 mg catalyst can be used to effectively activate PMS and remove 96.14 % ciprofloxacin (CIP, 20 mg/L) within 30 min. The removal effect of catalyst on CIP in different actual water environment was explored. In addition, the fluorescence spectrum test also verified the effective removal of ciprofloxacin. V-Co-Ti ternary system provides a wealth of active sites for CIP removal. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and lear sweep voltammetry (LSV) tests showed the existence of the electron transfer pathway. The results of density functional theory (DFT) calculation show that VCo-MOF@Ti3C2Tx has excellent adsorption and activation ability for PMS. At the same time, the hydrophilicity of the catalyst makes PMS more inclined to react with water molecules, which promotes the formation of a unique superoxide radical path.

Simultaneous removal of carbamazepine and Cd(II) in groundwater by integration of peroxydisulfate oxidation and sulfidogenic process: The bridging role of SO 42. CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 311:137069.

Abstract
Heat-activated PDS oxidation (HAPO) has been widely used for in-situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) of micropollutants in groundwater, whereas the aesthetic demerit of additional SO42- production is largely overlooked. In this study, the sulfidogenic process is used to offset the aesthetic demerit, and the production of SO42- is then employed to recycle heavy metals. The innovative integration technology with PDS oxidation and sulfidogenic process via the bridging role of SO42- was reported to remove micropollutants and heavy metals in groundwater simultaneously. HAPO could completely degrade CBZ, producing 400 mg/L SO42- with the addition of 0.50 g/L PDS. Sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) utilize SO42- generated from HAPO as the electron acceptor in the sulfidogenic process, removing and recycling Cd(II) via the precipitation of CdS. The SRB tolerance experiment revealed the viability of PDS oxidation coupled with the sulfidogenic process via the bridging role of SO42-. Overall, the integration technology is a green and promising technology for simultaneous micropollutants removal and heavy metals recycling in groundwater.

Abstract
In the existing research, most of the heterogeneous catalysts applied in the activation of persulfate to degrade organic pollutants were synthesized from chemical reagents in the laboratory. In this paper, we have obtained a spent iron ore (IO) residue directly collecting from the iron ore plants, and efficiently activating peroxydisulfate (PS) to produce reactive free radicals. The experimental results demonstrated that the IO could effectively activate PS to degrade tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH), with TCH removal rate reaching up to 85.6% within 2 h at room temperature. The TCH removal rate was increased with increasing iron ore dosage, while the more acidic pH condition would be favorable to TCH removal process. The material characterization results demonstrated that the dominant components of IO were Fe3O4 and FeOOH. The transformation from Fe(II) to Fe(III) at the surface IO was observed after TCH degradation. What's more, the quenching experiment and EPR detection results confirmed that the sulfate radical (SO4•-) and hydroxyl radicals (•OH) would be acting as the main free radicals for TCH degradation. This study could not only explore a novel way to recycle the discarded iron ore, but also further expand its application in an effective activation of PS in an aqueous solution.

Abstract
Groundwater pollution poses a serious threat to the main source of clean water globally. Nanoparticles have the potential for remediation of polluted aquifers; however, environmental safety concerns associated with in situ deployments of such technology include potential detrimental effects on microorganisms in terms of toxicity and functional disruptions. In this work, we evaluated a new and ecofriendly approach using carbon dots (CDs) as Fenton-like catalysts to catalyse the degradation of dye-containing groundwater samples. This investigation aimed at evaluating the efficacy of a novel remediation technology in terms of dye degradation and toxicity reduction while assessing its impacts on aquatic microorganisms. Uncontaminated Australian groundwater samples were spiked with methylene blue and incubated in the dark, at 18 °C, under slow agitation, using CDs at 0.5 mg mL-1 and H2O2 at 73.5 mM for 25 h. The dye degradation rate was determined as well as the toxicity of the treated solutions using the Microtox® bioassay. Further, to determine the changes in the groundwater microbial community, 16 S rRNA sequencing was used and evenness and diversity indices were analysed using Pielou's evenness and Simpson index, respectively. This study revealed that dye-containing groundwater were effectively treated by CDs showing a degradation rate of 78-82% and a significant 4-fold reduction in the toxicity. Characterisation of the groundwater microbiota revealed a predominance of at least 60% Proteobacteria phylum in all samples where diversity and evenness were maintained throughout the remediation process. The results showed that CDs could be an efficient approach to treat polluted groundwater and potentially have minimum impact on the environmental microbiome.

Abstract
In this study, sodium tetraborate (Na2B4O7) was introduced to enhance the degradation of acetaminophen (ACT) in heat-activated peroxymonosulfate (PMS) process. The elimination of ACT in Na2B4O7/heat/PMS process followed the pseudo-first order kinetics. The corresponding kobs value with 10 mM Na2B4O7 was 33.1 times higher than that in heat/PMS process. 1O2 and HO· were identified as primary reactive species via quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance technology. B(OH)4-, the hydrolysis product of Na2B4O7, reacted with PMS to generate HOOB(OH)3-. 1O2 was generated by the self-decomposition of PMS using B(OH)4- as catalyst, while HO· was produced via the breakage of peroxide bond of PMS and HOOB(OH)3-under high temperature. ACT was degraded by reactive species via the pathways of -NH- bond breakage, -OH replacement, -NH2 oxidation and benzene ring cleavage. Nine transformation intermediates were detected by LC/Q-TOF/MS, and the toxicity of reaction solution decreased significantly with the elimination of ACT. Increasing Na2B4O7 dosage, PMS concentration, initial pH and reaction temperature were conducive to ACT elimination. Humic acid, Cl- and CO32- inhibited the degradation of ACT heavily, while SO42- and NO3- had the negligible effects. Moreover, B(OH)4- could react with free chlorine to the inert B(OH)3OCl- and further significantly suppress the formation of chlorinated by-products for the treatment of Cl--containing water in Na2B4O7/heat/PMS process. This study provided an effective way to enhance the oxidation capacity of heat/PMS process and suppress the formation of chlorinated by-products in chloride-containing water, and the findings had important implications for using borate buffer in the studies of PMS-based advanced oxidation processes.

Abstract
Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are promising technologies for partial or complete mineralization of contaminants of emerging concern by highly reactive hydroxyl, hydroperoxyl, superoxide, and sulphate radicals. Detailed investigations and reviews have been reported for conventional AOP systems that have been installed in full-scale wastewater treatment plants. However, recent efforts have focused on the peroxymonosulphate, persulphate, catalytic ozonation, ultrasonication and hydrodynamic cavitation, gamma radiation, electrochemical oxidation, modified Fenton, and plasma-assisted AOPs. This critical review presents the detailed mechanisms of emerging AOP technologies, their performance for treatment of contaminants of emerging concern, the relative advantages and disadvantages of each technology, and the remaining challenges to scale-up and implementation. Among the evaluated technologies, the modified electrochemical oxidation, gamma radiation, and plasma-assisted systems demonstrated the greatest potential for successful and sustainable implementation in wastewater treatment due to their environmental safety, compatibility, and efficient transformation of contaminants of emerging concern by a variety of reactive species. The other emerging AOP systems were also promising, but additional scale-up trials and a deeper understanding of their reaction kinetics in complex wastewater matrices are necessary to determine the technical and economic feasibility of full-scale processes.

[PMID: 35745454 PMCID: PMC9229011 DOI: 10.3390/nano12122116] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2022] [Revised: 06/16/2022] [Accepted: 06/18/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
UV-based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) (UV/H2O2 and UV/S2O82-) with a titanium(IV)-doped carbon dot, TiP-CD, as a catalyst were developed for the decomposition of Remazol Brilliant Blue R (Reactive Blue 19), an anthraquinone textile dye (at T = 25 °C and pH = 7). The Ti-CD, with marked catalytic UV properties, was successfully synthesized by the one-pot hydrothermal procedure, using L-cysteine as carbon precursor, ethylenediamine as nitrogen source, PEG (polyethylene glycol) as a capping agent, and titanium(IV) isopropoxide (precursor of TiO2 doping). Contrary to azo dyes (methyl orange, orange II sodium salt, and reactive black 5), which achieved complete degradation in a time interval less than 30 min in the developed AOP systems (UV/H2O2, UV/S2O82-, and UV/TiO2), the RBB-R showed relatively low degradation rates and low discoloration rate constants. In the presence of the catalyzer, the reaction rate significantly increased, and the pseudo-first-order rate constants for the RBB-R discoloration were UV/3.0 mM H2O2/TIP-CD-0.0330 min-1 and UV/1.02 mM S2O82-/TIP-CD-0.0345 min-1.

Abstract
Due to their numerous effects on human health and the natural environment, water contamination with heavy metals and metalloids, caused by their extensive use in various technologies and industrial applications, continues to be a huge ecological issue that needs to be urgently tackled. Additionally, within the circular economy management framework, the recovery and recycling of metals-based waste as high value-added products (VAPs) is of great interest, owing to their high cost and the continuous depletion of their reserves and natural sources. This paper reviews the state-of-the-art technologies developed for the removal and recovery of metal pollutants from wastewater by providing an in-depth understanding of their remediation mechanisms, while analyzing and critically discussing the recent key advances regarding these treatment methods, their practical implementation and integration, as well as evaluating their advantages and remaining limitations. Herein, various treatment techniques are covered, including adsorption, reduction/oxidation, ion exchange, membrane separation technologies, solvents extraction, chemical precipitation/co-precipitation, coagulation-flocculation, flotation, and bioremediation. A particular emphasis is placed on full recovery of the captured metal pollutants in various reusable forms as metal-based VAPs, mainly as solid precipitates, which is a powerful tool that offers substantial enhancement of the remediation processes' sustainability and cost-effectiveness. At the end, we have identified some prospective research directions for future work on this topic, while presenting some recommendations that can promote sustainability and economic feasibility of the existing treatment technologies.

Abstract
In the study, an efficient '1 + 1 > 2' synergistic coupling system driven by visible light consisting of mesoporous g-C3N4 (MCN) and persulfate (PS)was constructed. The free radical transformation, electron transfer and non-covalent interaction between the MCN layer and PS in the system were explored via experiments and DFT calculations. The similarity for the fate of the seven β-lactam antibiotics with typical structures in the oxidation system was studied systematically in depth. First, the consistencies and differences of the seven antibiotics were summarized from three aspects: three-dimensional structures, electron cloud distributions, and the vulnerable sites. Notably, the selective differential degradation of β-lactam antibiotics in the MCN/PS system was speculated to be related with the molecular ionization potential (MIP), as a key index to describe the difficulty of oxidation. The distribution relationship between MIP and the oxidation kinetic constant (K) was explored and showed the following trend: a higher MIP indicates a weaker ability to provide electrons, and this leads to a greater resistance to oxidative degradation. In total, four main oxidation pathways of β-lactam antibiotics were systematically summarized combining HPLC-QTOF-MS and the simplified Fukui function calculation. The toxicity assessment of intermediate products provided by the T.E.S.T software of USEPA also shows a decreasing trend in the oxidation process. In the end, the superior practicability and stability of the MCN/PS system was verified by complex environment simulation and cyclic test. This research clarified the selective differential degradation mechanism of β-lactam antibiotics and provided a possible idea for the effective removal of refractory organic pollutants in water.

Abstract
The feasibility of pyrite as catalysts in the persulfate oxidation and electron donor for subsequent bacterial denitrification was investigated. The results demonstrated that pyrite-activated persulfate oxidation could efficiently degrade the organic matter in the effluent of biological landfill leachate treatment system, and COD removal efficiency of about 45% was achieved at the optimum parameters: pH = 6, pyrite dosage = 9.28 mM, dimensionless oxidant dose = 0.25. Among the dissolved organic matter, hydrophobic dissolved organic carbon (HO DOC), humic acids and building blocks were the main components. After the pyrite-activated persulfate oxidation, humic acids and HO DOC were primarily degraded, followed by building blocks, while low molecular weight neutrals were probably the degradation products. In the subsequent biological process, nitrate reduction was satisfactorily accomplished with autotrophic denitrification as the main pathway. When the influent nitrate concentration was about 180 mg L-1, the effluent nitrate concentration was stable below 20 mg L-1 with the nitrogen removal rate of about 108 mg L-1 d-1. To sum up, the pyrite-activated persulfate oxidation and the following biological denitrification was a feasible application in the effluent of biological landfill leachate treatment system.

Abstract
Multivariate metal-organic frameworks (MTV-MOFs) are expected as catalyst to apply to the advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) based on sulfate radical (SO4·-) to treat wastewater containing organic pollutants. Mixing metals de novo method was combined with stringent solvothermal conditions to synthesize macaroon-like NbCo-MOF catalyst. NbCo-MOF catalyst prepared with different atom ratios and growth time presented various morphology, structure, performance, and distinctive MTV-MOFs growth law which were confirmed by SEM, TEM, EDS, XRD, FTIR, raman spectra and UV-vis spectra. Besides, optimum peroxymonosulfate (PMS) catalytic activation conditions were studied. Furthermore, the effects of anions (Cl-, NO3-, HCO3-, and C2O42-) on NbCo-MOF catalytic activation were explored which were proved very limited. Particularly, the Co2+/Co3+ cycle combining with the Nb4+/Nb5+ cycle for PMS activation were verified by XPS. EPR and quenching experiment results indicated exists non-radical pathway (1O2), but radical pathways are dominant (SO4·- O2·-, and ·OH). Moreover, the TC removal rate exhibited no significant reduce after three times run. Furthermore, NbCo-MOF exhibited excellent decomposing ability towards methylene blue, tylosin tartrate, rhodamine B, and tetracycline with the removal rate reaching to 100%, 98.4%, 99.7%, and 99.7% in 30 min respectively and also maintained good performance in actual water environment.

Abstract
Extracellular electron transfer (EET) plays an important role in bio-reduction of environmental pollutants. Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), a kind of biogenic macromolecule, contain functional groups responsible for acceleration of EET. In this study, azo dye-methyl orange (MO) was chosen as a model pollutant, and a Fe3O4 and EPS nanocomposite (Fe3O4@EPS) was prepared to evaluate its promotion on the bio-reduction of MO. The flower-like core-shell configuration of Fe3O4@EPS with a 12 nm of light layer of EPS was confirmed by TEM. The redox ability of EPS was well reserved on Fe3O4@EPS by FTIR and electrochemical test. The application of Fe3O4@EPS on sustained acceleration of MO decolorization were confirmed by batch experiments and anaerobic sequenced batch reactors. Due to biocompatibility of the biogenic shell, the as-prepared Fe3O4@EPS exhibited low toxic to microorganisms by the Live/dead cell test. Moreover, negligible leaching of EPS under high concentration of various anions and less than 10% of EPS was released under extreme acidic and basic pH condition. The results of study provided a new preparation method of biological intimate and environmentally friendly redox mediators and suggested a feasible way for its use on bio-reduction of pollutants.

Abstract
It is well known that chloride ions could affect the oxidation kinetics and mechanism of contaminant based on SO4•- in the wastewater. Here, the degradation of an organic acid, fumaric acid (FA), was investigated in the presence of chloride (0-300 mM) by the Fe(II)/peroxymonosulfate (Fe(II)/PMS) system. A negative impact of chloride was observed on the rates of FA degradation. The degree of inhibitory effect was higher in Fe(II)/PMS addition order. Some chlorinated byproducts were identified during the FA oxidation process in the presence of Cl- by the ultraperformance liquid chromatography and quadrupole-time of flight mass spectrometer (UPLC-QTOF-MS). With the increasing content of Cl-, an accumulation of adsorbable organic halogen (AOX), an increase in acute toxicity, and an inhibition of mineralization were observed. According to the results of kinetic modeling, the production and transformation of oxidative species were dependent on Cl- dosage and reaction time. SO4•- was supposed to be the main radical for FA degradation with Cl- concentration below 5 mM, whereas Cl2•- was primarily responsible for the depletion of FA at [Cl-] > 5 mM. A possible degradation pathway of FA was discussed. This study reveals the potential environmental risk of organic acid and is necessary to explore useful strategies for ameliorating the treatment of chloride-rich wastewater.

Abstract
Mine-polluted wastewater with mercury (Hg) poses severe environmental pollution since Hg(II) can be converted to highly neurotoxic methylmercury (MeHg) under anaerobic conditions. Previous studies on Hg methylation have focused on aquatic sediments, but few have investigated the MeHg formation in water layers containing algae. In this study, we investigated the dynamic effect of algae on Hg methylation throughout the lifetime of algae. We found that Chlorella pyrenoidosa was a non-methylating alga and exhibited good tolerance to Hg stress (1-20 μg/L); thus Hg(II) could not inhibit the process of eutrophication. However, the presence of C. pyrenoidosa significantly enhanced the Hg methylation by Geobacter sulfurreducens PCA. Compared to the control sample without algae, the MeHg production rate of algae-bacteria samples remarkably exacerbated by 62.3-188.3% with the algal growth period at cell densities of 1.5 × 106-25 × 106 cells/mL. The increase of algal organic matter and thiols with the algal growth period resulted in the exacerbation of MeHg production. The Hg methylation was also enhanced with the presence of dead algae, of which the enhancement was ~62.4% lower than that with the presence of live algae. Accordingly, the potential mechanism of Hg methylation in a freshwater algae-bacteria symbiotic system throughout the algal lifetime was proposed.

Abstract
Xenobiotics are generally known as man-made refractory organic pollutants widely distributed in various environments. For exploring the bioremediation possibility of xenobiotics, two novel xenobiotics-degrading strains affiliated with Azonexaceae were isolated. We report here the phylogenetics, genome, and geo-distribution of a novel and ubiquitous Azonexaceae species that primarily joins in the cometabolic process of some xenobiotics in natural communities. Strains s22 and t15 could be proposed as a novel species within Dechloromonas based on genomic and multi-phylogenetic analysis. Pan-genome analysis showed that the 63 core genes in Dechloromonas include genes for dozens of metabolisms such as nitrogen fixation protein (nifU), nitrogen regulatory protein (glnK), dCTP deaminase, C4-dicarboxylate transporter, and fructose-bisphosphate aldolase. Strains s22 and t15 have the ability to metabolize nitrogen, including nitrogen fixation, NirS-dependent denitrification, and dissimilatory nitrate reduction. Moreover, the novel species possesses the EnvZ-OmpR two-component system for controlling osmotic stress and QseC-QseB system for quorum sensing to rapidly sense environmental changes. It is intriguing that this new species has a series of genes for the biodegradation of some xenobiotics such as azathioprine, 6-Mercaptopurine, trinitrotoluene, chloroalkane, and chloroalkene. Specifically, glutathione S-transferase (GST) and 4-oxalocrotonate tautomerase (praC) in this novel species play important roles in the detoxification metabolism of some xenobiotics like dioxin, trichloroethene, chloroacetyl chloride, benzo[a]pyrene, and aflatoxin B1. Using data from GenBank, DDBJ and EMBL databases, we also demonstrated that members of this novel species were found globally in plants (e.g. rice), guts (e.g. insect), pristine and contaminated regions. Given these data, Dechloromonas sp. strains s22 and t15 take part in the biodegradation of some xenobiotics through key enzymes.

Abstract
With the continuous development of industrialization, a growing number of refractory organic pollutants are released into the environment. These contaminants could cause serious risks to the human health and wildlife, therefore their degradation and mineralization is very critical and urgent. Recently sulfate radical-based advanced oxidation technology has been widely applied to organic pollutants treatment due to its high efficiency and eco-friendly nature. This review comprehensively summarizes different methods for persulfate (PS) and peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation including ultraviolet light, ultrasonic, electrochemical, heat, radiation and alkali. The reactive oxygen species identification and mechanisms of PS/PMS activation by different approaches are discussed. In addition, this paper summarized the toxicity of degradation intermediates through bioassays and Ecological Structure Activity Relationships (ECOSAR) program prediction and the formation of toxic bromated disinfection byproducts (Br-DBPs) and carcinogenic bromate (BrO3-) in the presence of Br-. The detoxification and mineralization of target pollutants induced by different reactive oxygen species are also analyzed. Finally, perspectives of potential future research and applications on sulfate radical-based advanced oxidation technology in the treatment of organic pollutants are proposed.

WATER RESEARCH 2020; 186:116326. [PMID: 32854031 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2020.116326] [Citation(s) in RCA: 61] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2020] [Revised: 08/18/2020] [Accepted: 08/19/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
Copper ion (Cu(II)) in water or wastewater has been reported to trigger peroxymonosulfate (PMS) oxidation of organic contaminants (OCs). However, this process can only work in alkaline condition, which limits its potential application. In this study, we found that the introduction of natural polyphenols in the Cu(II)/PMS process can significantly promote the degradation of tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA), one of the most widely used brominated flame retardants, in the pH range of 4.3-9.0. With gallic acid (GA) as a representative natural polyphenol, the degradation of TBBPA by GA/Cu(II)/PMS process reached 84.6% in 10 min at initial pH of 4.3 (without pH adjustment), which was 2.2 times higher than that by Cu(II)/PMS process. Multiple reactive oxidants, including Cu(III), hydroxyl radical (HO•) and singlet oxygen, were generated in this process among which Cu(III) and HO• contributed to TBBPA degradation with Cu(III) playing the dominant role. GA accelerated the reduction of Cu(II) to Cu(I) due to the strong chelation and electron-donating capacity of ortho-hydroxyl groups in GA, and then Cu(I) was quickly oxidized by PMS to Cu(III) which can be further acid-catalyzed to produce HO•. TBBPA transformation mainly proceeded through electron abstraction, oxidative debromination and ring-opening reaction pathways. The feasibility of in-situ utilizing natural organic matter (NOM, enriched with polyphenol moieties) to accelerate the degradation of TBBPA by Cu(II)/PMS process in surface water and wastewater was confirmed. The findings of this study indicate that the coupling of NOM and Cu(II), which are present in contaminated water or wastewater, can potentially improve PMS oxidation of OCs in a wide range of pH.

ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2020; 203:110931.

Abstract
Numerous studies have enriched our knowledge of the microbial community composition and metabolic versatility of contaminated soil. However, there remains a substantial gap regarding the bioassembly patterns of the indigenous microbial community distribution in contaminated deep soils. Herein, the indigenous microbial community structure diversity, function, and co-occurrence relationships in aged PAH-contaminated deep soil collected from an abandoned chemical facility were investigated using high-throughput sequencing. The results showed that the dominant phyla in all samples were responsible for PAH degradation and included Proteobacteria (20.86%-81.37%), Chloroflexi (2.03%-28.44%), Firmicutes (3.06%-31.16%), Actinobacteria (2.92%-11.91%), Acidobacteria (0.41%-12.68%), and Nitrospirae (0.81%-9.21%). Eighty biomarkers were obtained by linear discriminant analysis of effect size (LEfSe), and most of these biomarkers were PAH degraders. Functional predictions using Tax4Fun indicated that the aged contaminated soil has the potential for PAH degradation. Statistical analysis showed that in contrast with the PAH concentration, edaphic properties (nutrients and pH) were significantly correlated (r > 0.25, P < 0.01) with the bacterial community and functional composition. Co-occurrence network analysis (modularity index of 0.781) revealed non-random assembly patterns of the bacterial communities in the PAH-contaminated soils. The modules in the network were mainly involved in carbon and nitrogen cycles, organic substance degradation, and biological electron transfer processes. Microbes from the same module had strong ecological linkages. Additionally, SAR202 clade, Thermoanaerobaculum, Nitrospira, and Xanthomonadales, which were identified as keystone species, played an irreplaceable role in the network. Overall, our results suggested that environmental factors such as nutrients and pH, together with ecological function, are the main factors driving the assembly of microbial communities in aged PAH-contaminated deep soils.
