WATER RESEARCH 2024; 262:122090.

Abstract
Ammonia monooxygenase (AMO)-mediated cometabolism of organic pollutants has been widely observed in biological nitrogen removal process. However, its molecular mechanism remains unclear, hindering its practical application. Furthermore, conventional nitrification systems encounter significant challenges such as air pollution and the loss of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria, when dealing with wastewater containing volatile organic pollutants. This study developed a nitrifying membrane-aerated biofilm reactor (MABR) to enhance the biodegradation of volatile 4-chlorophenol (4-CP). Results showed that 4-CP was primarily removed via Nitrosomonas nitrosa-mediated cometabolism in the presence of NH4+-N, supported by the increased nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content, AMO activity and the related genes abundance. Hydroquinone, detected for the first time and produced via oxidative dechlorination, as well as 4-chlorocatechol was primary transformation products of 4-CP. Nitrosomonas nitrosa AMO structural model was constructed for the first time using homology modeling. Molecular dynamics simulation suggested that the ortho-carbon in the benzene ring of 4-CP was more prone to metabolismcompared to the ipso-carbon. Density functional theory calculation revealed that 4-CP was metabolized by AMO via H-abstraction-OH-rebound reaction, with a significantly higher rebound barrier at the ipso-carbon (16.37 kcal·mol-1) as compared to the ortho-carbon (6.7 kcal·mol-1). This study fills the knowledge gap on the molecular mechanism of AMO-mediated cometabolism of organic pollutants, providing practical and theoretical foundations for improving volatile organic pollutants removal through nitrifying MABR.

Yuan M, Chen G, Xiao Y, Qu Y, Ren Y. The mechanisms of yeast extracellular metabolites in stimulating microbial degradation of trichloroethylene: Physiological characteristics and omics analysis. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 255:119193. [PMID: 38777296 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.119193] [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: 03/21/2024] [Revised: 05/16/2024] [Accepted: 05/20/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
The biodegradation of Trichloroethylene (TCE) is limited by low microbial metabolic capacity but can be enhanced through biostimulation strategies. This study explored the physiological effects and potential molecular mechanisms of the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica extracellular metabolites (YEMs) on the degradation of TCE by Acinetobacter LT1. Results indicated that YEMs stimulated the efficiency of strain LT1 by 50.28%. At the physiological level, YEMs exhibited protective effects on cell morphology, reduced oxidative stress, lessened membrane damage, and enhanced energy production and conversion. Analysis of omics results revealed that the regulation of various metabolic pathways by YEMs improved the degradation of TCE. Furthermore, RT-qPCR showed that the genes encoding YhhW protein in TCE stress and YEMs stimulation groups were 1.72 and 3.22 times the control group, respectively. Molecular docking results showed that the conformation of YhhW after binding to TCE changed into a more active form, which enhanced enzyme activity. Therefore, it is speculated that YhhW is the primary degradative enzyme involved in the process of YEMs stimulating strain LT1 to degrade TCE. These results reveal how YEMs induce strain LT1 to enhance TCE degradation.

WATER RESEARCH 2024; 265:122217. [PMID: 39128335 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2024.122217] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2024] [Revised: 07/18/2024] [Accepted: 08/03/2024] [Indexed: 08/13/2024]
Abstract
Phenols are the widely detected contaminants in the aquatic environment. Pyrogenic carbon (PyC) can mediate phenols degradation, but the specific properties of PyC or phenols influencing this reaction remain unknown. The present study investigated the kinetic process and mechanism of removal of various phenols by different PyC in aqueous phase system. To avoid the impact of the accumulated degradation byproducts on the overall reaction, we conducted a short-term experiment, quantified adsorption and degradation, and obtained reaction rate constants using a two-compartment first-order kinetics model. The adsorption rate constants (ka) of phenols by PyC were 10-220 times higher than degradation rate constants (kd), and they were positively correlated. Interestingly, no correlation was found between kd and common PyC properties, including functional groups, electron transfer capacities, and surface properties. Phenols were primarily attacked by •OH in the adsorbed phase. But neither the instantly trapped •OH, nor the accumulated •OH could explain phenol degradation. Chemical redox titration revealed that the electron transfer parameters, such as the electron donating rate constant (kED) of PyC, correlated well with kd (r>0.87, P < 0.05) of phenols. Analysis of 13 phenols showed that Egap and ELUMO negatively correlated with their kd, confirming the importance of the electronic properties of phenols to their degradation kinetics. This study highlights the importance of PyC electron transfer kinetics parameters for phenols degradation and manipulation of PyC electron transfer rate may accelerate organic pollutant removal, which contributes to a deeper understanding of the environmental behavior and application of PyC systems.

Contaminant removal performance and lipid productivity of a cyanobacteria-bacteria consortium containing exogenous phytohormones during the treatment of antibiotic-polluted wastewater. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 361:142473.

Abstract
In this study, a cyanobacteria-bacteria consortium containing native wastewater bacteria and immobilized Synechococcus sp. was constructed. The cyanobacterial cellular responses (including growth, biomass and lipid productivity) and contaminant removal ability (for TN, TP, COD and antibiotics) in the consortium were evaluated during the advanced treatment of wastewater containing 10-50 μg/L of mixed antibiotics (amoxicillin, tetracycline, erythromycin, sulfadiazine and ciprofloxacin) with the addition of a certain phytohormone (indole-3-acetic acid, gibberellin A3 or 6-benzylaminopurine) at trace level within a period of four days. Each phytohormone promoted the growth of Synechococcus sp. and increased the tolerance of Synechococcus sp. to mixed antibiotics. Indole-3-acetic acid coupled to moderate antibiotic stress could elevate lipid productivity and lipid content of Synechococcus sp. to 33.50 mg/L/day and 43.75%, respectively. Phytohormones increased the pollutant removal performance of the cyanobacteria-bacteria consortium through the stimulation of cyanobacterial growth and the regulation of cyanobacteria-bacteria interaction, which increased the abundances of microalgae-associated bacteria including Flavobacterium, Allorhizobium-Neorhizobium-Pararhizobium-Rhizobium, Bosea, Sphingomonas and Emticicia. Up to 80.83%, 98.06%, 83.26%, 99.84%, 99.50%, 89.41%, 65.61% and 60.65% of TN, TP, COD, amoxicillin, tetracycline, erythromycin, sulfadiazine and ciprofloxacin were removed by the consortium with the addition of phytohormones. In general, indole-3-acetic acid was the optimal phytohormone for enhancing lipid production and contaminant removal performance of the cyanobacteria-bacteria consortium.

Abstract
Hydrogen production through the metabolic bypass of microalgae photosynthesis is an environmentally friendly method. This review examines the genetic differences in hydrogen production between prokaryotic and eukaryotic microalgae. Additionally, the pathways for enhancing microalgae-based photosynthetic hydrogen generation are summarized. The main strategies for enhancing microalgal hydrogen production involve inhibiting the oxygen-generating process of photosynthesis and promoting the oxygen tolerance of hydrogenase. Future research is needed to explore the regulation of physiological metabolism through quorum sensing in microalgae to enhance photosynthetic hydrogen production. Moreover, effective evaluation of carbon emissions and sequestration across the entire photosynthetic hydrogen production process is crucial for determining the sustainability of microalgae-based production approaches through comprehensive lifecycle assessment. This review elucidates the prospects and challenges associated with photosynthetic hydrogen production by microalgae.

Fluidized bed photobioreactor based on diatomite powder and high light intensity improved microalgae harvesting, nutrient removal and lipid accumulation: Performance and microscopic mechanism.

Abstract
Cultivation of microalgae using anaerobic digestate is a gain-win strategy for algal biomass production and achieving environmental benefits. However, the low biomass concentration and high harvest cost of the conventional suspended microalgae culture system are troublesome issues. In this study, a novel fluidized bed photobioreactor (FBPBR) based on diatomite powder was constructed for cultivating Scenedesmus quadricauda and treating diluted anaerobic digestate. The optimized diatomite carrier dosage of 750 mg/L increased microalgal biomass concentration to 1.58 g/L compared to suspended microalgae without carrier (0.99 g/L). When the light intensity was increased from 100 to 200 μmol/m2/s, the microalgal biomass in the FBPBR increased to 1.84 g/L and the settling efficiency increased to 93.58 %. This was due to the 1.60-fold enhancement of extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) secretion and changes in EPS properties. The increase in hydrophobic functional groups of EPS under high light intensity, coupled with the reconstitution of protein secondary structure, facilitated the initial attachment of algae to diatomite and the thickening of microalgal biofilm. Moreover, transcriptomic analysis demonstrated that diatomite promoted antioxidant defense and photosynthesis in S. quadricauda cells, alleviating the adverse effect of anaerobic digestate stress. The diatomite addition and elevated light intensity contributed to the highest lipid content (60.37 %), which was owing to the upregulated genes encoding fatty acid and triacylglycerol synthesis under the stress of localized nutrient starvation in the inner layer of microalgae biofilms. Furthermore, the regulation of phosphorus metabolism and NH4+-N assimilation improved nutrient removal (93.24 % and 96.86 % for NH4+-N and TP removal). This work will provide guidance for the development of FBPBR based on diatomite powder.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass is abundant on Earth, and there are multiple acidic pretreatment options to separate the cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin fraction. By doing so, the fermentation inhibitors 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and furfural (FF) are produced in varying concentrations depending on the hydrolyzed substrate. In this study, the impact of these furanic compounds on Chlorella vulgaris growth and photosynthetic activity was analyzed. Both compounds led to a prolonged lag phase in Chlorella vulgaris growth. While the photosynthetic yield Y(II) was not significantly influenced in cultivations containing HMF, FF significantly reduced Y(II). The conversion of 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural and furfural to 5-Hydroxymethyl-2-Furoic Acid and 2-Furoic Acid was observed. In total, 100% of HMF and FF was converted in photoautotrophic and mixotrophic Chlorella vulgaris cultivations. The results demonstrate that Chlorella vulgaris is, as of now, the first known microalgal species converting furanic compounds.

Abstract
Halogenated aromatic compounds possess bidirectional effects on denitrifying bio-electron behavior, providing electrons and potentially interfering with electron consumption. This study selected the typical 4-chlorophenol (4-CP, 0-100 mg/L) to explore its impact mechanism on glucose-supported denitrification. When COD(glucose)/COD(4-CP)=28.70-3.59, glucose metabolism remained the dominant electron supply process, although its removal efficiency decreased to 73.84-49.66 %. When COD(glucose)/COD(4-CP)=2.39-1.43, 4-CP changed microbial carbon metabolism priority by inhibiting the abundance of glucose metabolizing enzymes, gradually replacing glucose as the dominant electron donor. Moreover, 5-100 mg/L 4-CP reduced adenosine triphosphate (ATP) by 15.52-24.67 % and increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) by 31.13-63.47 %, causing severe lipid peroxidation, thus inhibiting the utilization efficiency of glucose. Activated by glucose, 4-CP dechlorination had stronger electron consumption ability than NO2--N reduction (NO3--N > 4-CP > NO2--N), combined with the decreased nirS and nirK genes abundance, resulting in NO2--N accumulation. Compared with the blank group (0 mg/L 4-CP), 5-40 mg/L and 60-100 mg/L 4-CP reduced the secretion of cytochrome c and flavin adenine dinucleotides (FAD), respectively, further decreasing the electron transfer activity of denitrification system. Micropruina, a genus that participated in denitrification based on glucose, was gradually replaced by Candidatus_Microthrix, a genus that possessed 4-CP degradation and denitrification functions after introducing 60-100 mg/L 4-CP.

Abstract
In this study, the effect of external agricultural phytohormones (mixed phytohormones) addition (1.0, 5.0, 10.0, and 20.0 mg L-1) on the growth performance, lipid productivity, and sedimentation efficiency of Chlorella pyrenoidosa cultivated in saline wastewater was investigated. Among the different concentrations evaluated, the highest biomass (1.00 g L-1) and lipid productivity (11.11 mg L-1 d-1) of microalgae were obtained at 10.0 mg L-1 agricultural phytohormones addition. Moreover, exogenous agricultural phytohormones also improved the sedimentation performance of C. pyrenoidosa, which was conducive to the harvest of microalgae resources, and the improvement of sedimentation performance was positively correlated with the amount of agricultural phytohormones used. The promotion of extracellular polymeric substances synthesis by phytohormones in microalgal cells could be considered as the reason for its promotion of microalgal sedimentation. Transcriptome analysis revealed that the addition of phytohormones upregulated the expression of genes related to the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)-mediated phytohormone signaling pathway and lipid synthesis, thereby improving salinity tolerance and lipid production in C. pyrenoidosa. Overall, agricultural phytohormones provide an effective and inexpensive strategy for increasing the lipid productivity and sedimentation efficiency of microalgae cultured in saline wastewater.

WATER RESEARCH 2024; 248:120864.

Abstract
The utilization of seawater supplemented with wastewater nutrients for microalgae cultivation represents a promising and cost-effective approach that combines the benefits of wastewater treatment and microalgal resource recovery. However, the high salt content in seawater poses a significant challenge, hindering microalgal growth and reducing the removal of nitrogen and phosphorus on a large scale. The phytohormone indoleacetic acid (IAA) was used in this study to enhance stress resistance and lipid production of Chlorella pyrenoidosa grown in seawater-wastewater medium. Compared to the control groups involving regular wastewater and seawater-containing wastewater without IAA, Chlorella pyrenoidosa cultivated in the seawater-containing wastewater supplemented with IAA exhibited remarkable outcomes. Specifically, microalgae in IAA-enhanced seawater-containing wastewater achieved the highest lipid productivity (22.67 mg L-1 d-1) along with impressive nitrogen (99.3 %) and phosphorus (97.3 %) removal rates. Moreover, their cell sedimentation ratio reached 76.6 %, indicating enhanced settling properties. Additionally, the physiological mechanism changes after exposure to seawater stress and IAA were revealed based on the changes in antioxidant enzymes, endogenous hormones, and fatty acid saturation. Furthermore, the transcriptomic analysis elucidated the molecular mechanisms underlying microalgal lipid synthesis and their response to antioxidant stress when exposed to seawater. The supplementation of IAA under seawater stress stimulated energy metabolism and the antioxidant response in microalgal cells, effectively mitigating the adverse effects of seawater stress and promoting overall algal lipid productivity. Overall, this study unveiled the potential of exogenous plant hormones, particularly IAA, in enhancing stress resistance and lipid productivity of microalgae grown in seawater-wastewater medium, which significantly contributed towards the efficient use of seawater resources for microalgae cultivation and biofuel production.

Biochemical responses of freshwater microalgae Chlorella sorokiniana to combined exposure of Zn(Ⅱ) and estrone with simultaneous pollutants removal. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2023; 348:119392. [PMID: 37879179 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2023.119392] [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: 04/11/2023] [Revised: 10/07/2023] [Accepted: 10/11/2023] [Indexed: 10/27/2023]
Abstract
With the development of livestock industry, contaminants such as divalent zinc ions (Zn (Ⅱ)) and estrone are often simultaneously detected in livestock wastewater. Nevertheless, the combined toxicity of these two pollutants on microalgae is still unclear. Moreover, microalgae have the potential for biosorption and bioaccumulation of heavy metals and organic compounds. Thus, this study investigated the joint effects of Zn (Ⅱ) and estrone on microalgae Chlorella sorokiniana, in terms of growth, photosynthetic activity and biomolecules, as well as pollutants removal by algae. Interestingly, a low Zn (Ⅱ) concentration promoted C. sorokiniana growth and photosynthetic activity, while the high concentration experienced inhibition. As the increase of estrone concentration, chlorophyll a content increased continuously to resist the environmental stress. Concurrently, the secretion of extracellular polysaccharides and proteins by algae increased with exposure to Zn (Ⅱ) and estrone, reducing toxicity of pollutants to microalgae. Reactive oxygen species and superoxide dismutase activity increased as the increase of pollutant concentration after 96 h cultivation, but high pollutant concentrations resulted in damage of cells, as proved by increased MDA content. Additionally, C. sorokiniana displayed remarkable removal efficiency for Zn (Ⅱ) and estrone, reaching up to 86.14% and 84.96% respectively. The study provides insights into the biochemical responses of microalgae to pollutants and highlights the potential of microalgae in pollutants removal.

Abstract
Emerging contaminants (ECs) in different ecosystems have consistently been acknowledged as a global issue due to toxicity, human health implications, and potential role in generating and disseminating antimicrobial resistance. The existing wastewater treatment system is incompetent at eliminating ECs since the effluent water contains significant concentrations of ECs, viz., antibiotics (0.03-13.0 μg L-1), paracetamol (50 μg L-1), and many others in varying concentrations. Microalgae are considered as a prospective and sustainable candidate for mitigating of ECs owing to some peculiar features. In addition, the microalgal-based processes also offer cost and energy-efficient solutions for the bioremediation of ECs than conventional treatment systems. It is pertinent that, microalgal-based processes also provides waste valorization benefits as microalgal biomass obtained after ECs treatment can be potentially applied to generate biofuels. Moreover, microalgae can effectively utilize alternative metabolic (cometabolism) routes for enhanced degradation of ECs. Additionally, the ECs removal via the microalgal biodegradation route is highly promising as it can transform the ECs into less toxic compounds. The present review comprehensively discusses different mechanisms involved in removing ECs and various factors that affect their removal. Also, the technoeconomic feasibility of microalgae than other conventional wastewater treatment methods is summarised. The review also highlighted the different molecular and genetic tools that can augment the activity and robustness of microalgae for better removal of organic contaminants. Finally, we have summarised the challenges and future research required towards microalgal-based bioremediation of emerging contaminants (ECs) as a holistic approach.

Abstract
Microalgae have the ability to remove emerging contaminants (ECs) from wastewater and to recover resources, but this is limited by oxidative damage caused by the contaminants. Recently, phytohormones have been found to improve the tolerance of microalgae under oxidative stress, to promote the removal of ECs, and to enhance the synthesis of metabolites.

Abstract
A bottleneck of microalgae-based techniques for wastewater bioremediation is activity inhibition of microalgae by toxic pollutants. The defense strategies of Chlorella sorokinana against toxic pyridine were studied. Results indicated that pyridine caused photoinhibition and reactive oxygen species overproduction in a concentration-dependent manner. The 50% inhibitory concentration of pyridine (147 mg L-1) destroyed C/N balance, disrupted multiple metabolic pathways of C. sorokinana. In response to pyridine stress, ascorbate peroxidase and catalase activities increased to scavenge reactive oxygen species under pyridine concentrations lower than 23 mg L-1. At higher pyridine concentrations, the activation of calcium signaling pathways and phytohormones represented the predominant defense response. Extracellular polymeric substances increased 3.6-fold in 147 mg L-1 group than control, which interacted with pyridine through hydrophobic and aromatic stacking to resist pyridine entering algal cells. Unraveling the intracellular and extracellular self-defense mechanisms of microalgae against pyridine stress facilitates the development of microalgal-based technology in wastewater bioremediation.

Abstract
Electrochemical treatment can be an effective approach for degrading recalcitrant organic contaminants because its anode/cathode produces powerful oxidizing/reducing conditions. Herein, through the cooperation of the cathodic reductive and anodic oxidative processes, 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) was successfully degraded in an electrochemical system. TiO2 nanotube arrays (TNTAs)/Sb-SnO2 and TNTAs/Pd were successfully prepared and served as the anode and cathode electrodes, respectively, to generate oxidative (hydroxyl radical, ·OH) and reductive (chemically adsorbed hydrogen, Hads) agents. The sequential reduction-oxidation (SRO) process provided a reasonable degradation pathway that accomplished reductive detoxification in the cathode and oxidative mineralization in the anode. The SRO mode achieved dechlorination efficiency (DE) of 86.9 ± 3.9% and TOC removal efficiency of 64.8 ± 4.2% within 3 h and under a current density of 8 mA cm-2, both of which were significantly higher than those obtained in the sequential oxidation-reduction or the simultaneous redox modes. The increment of current density and reaction time could improve 4-CP degradation performance, but a high current density would decrease the cathode stability and a longer reaction time led to the generation of ClO4-. This study has demonstrated that sequential reduction-oxidation can be an effective and tunable process for degrading recalcitrant organic contaminants.

Abstract
Cometabolism has shown great potential in increasing the engineering feasibility of microalgae-based biotechnologies for the aerobic treatment of antibiotics-polluted wastewaters. Yet, the underlying mechanisms involved in improved microalgal performance remain unknown. In this study, we incorporated transcriptomics, gene network analysis, and enzymatic activities with cometabolic pathways of tetracycline (TC) by Chlorella pyrenoidosa to identify the key driving factors. The results demonstrated that cometabolism constructed a metabolic enzymes-photosynthetic machinery to improve the electron transport chain and activities of catalytic enzymes, which resulted in subsequent 100% removal of TC. Coupling formation dynamics of the intermediates with roles of identified metabolic enzymes, degradation of TC can be induced by de/hydroxylation, de/hydrogenation, bond-cleavage, decarboxylation, and deamination. Evaluation of 18 antibiotics' removal in reclaimed water showed cometabolism decreased the total concentrations of these antibiotics from 495.54 ng L-1 to 221.80 ng L-1. Our findings not only highlight the application potential of cometabolism in increasing engineering feasibility of microalgal degradation of antibiotics from wastewaters, but also provide the unique insights into unraveling the "black-box" of cometabolisms in aerobic biodegradation.

Abstract
Large amounts of toxic excess sludge as well as high concentrations of carbon dioxide can be produced in coal-gasification industry. Microalgae has huge potential in the use of nutrients, the removal of toxic organic matter in excess sludge and CO2 fixation. At the same time, the cultivation of the microalgae and the accumulation of high-quality biomass are also the key problems of concern. In this study, the growth and biomass synthesis of Scenedesmus obliquus cultured in sludge extract under 0%-15% (v/v) CO2 were investigated. Results indicated that the highest microalgae biomass yield of 1.609 ± 0.012 g/L can be achieved under 15% CO2 on the 30th day. The maximal photochemical efficiency of PSⅡ (Fv/Fm) decreased in the first 12 h and then increased with the culture time, and the decline amplitude decreased with the increase of the CO2 concentration, indicating that CO2 slowed down the toxic inhibition of sludge extract to Scenedesmus obliquus, which was expressed as the down-regulation of p53 signaling pathway and protein A0A383WFI7. Proteomic analysis showed that under high-concentration CO2, the protein interaction network with the protein of photosystem II assembly (A0A383VSL5) as the core protein regulated the growth of Scenedesmus obliquus in terms of energy metabolism and material transportation. On the 4th day, Methyltransf_11 domain-containing protein (A0A383VH03) was up-regulated and promoted lipid synthesis, leading to the accumulation of lipids in Scenedesmus obliquus in the early stage and the increase of polysaccharides in the later stage. Collectively, this study revealed the regulation mechanism of CO2 on toxicity removal and carbon distribution of Scenedesmus obliquus.
