Tan L, Li J, Zeng X. Revealing the Correlation between Molecular Structure and Corrosion Inhibition Characteristics of N-Heterocycles in Terms of Substituent Groups. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 16:2148. [PMID: 36984028 PMCID: PMC10052306 DOI: 10.3390/ma16062148] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/31/2022] [Revised: 02/24/2023] [Accepted: 03/06/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Controlling metal corrosion can directly address the waste of metal and the environmental pollution and resource depletion caused by metal recycling, very significant factors for green and sustainable development. The addition of corrosion inhibitors is a relatively cost-effective means of corrosion prevention. Among these, N-heterocycles have been widely used because heteroatoms contain lone pairs of electrons that can be strongly adsorbed onto metals, protecting them in highly corrosive environments at relatively low concentrations. However, due to the large variety of N-heterocycles, their corrosion inhibition characteristics have seldom been compared; therefore, the selection of appropriate N-heterocycles in the development of anti-corrosion products for specific applications was very difficult. This review systematically analyzed the influence of different substituents on the corrosion inhibition performance of N-heterocycles, including different alkyl chain substituents, electron-donating and electron-withdrawing substituents, and halogen atoms, respectively. The correlation between the molecular structure and corrosion inhibition characteristics of N-heterocycles was comprehensively revealed, and their action mechanism was analyzed deeply. In addition, the toxicity and biodegradability of N-heterocycles was briefly discussed. This study has provided a significant guideline for the development of green, promising corrosion inhibitors for advanced manufacturing and clean energy equipment protection.

Abstract
The discharge of H2S scavenging wastewaters, containing spent and unspent scavengers (SUS), into the marine environment is a large contributor to the environmental impact of offshore oil and gas production. Hydrothermal oxidation (HTO) can be a viable method for on-site treatment of the SUS before discharge, but the effect of the process on the ecotoxicity of the effluent has not been investigated so far. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential of the HTO technology in reducing the environmental impact by linking the chemical process design with ecotoxicity reduction. For this, we combined HTO experiments on a SUS sample from an oil and gas platform in the North Sea with whole effluent ecotoxicity evaluation before and after the treatment. The HTO process was carried out under excess of oxygen, for temperatures and pressures in the range 199 to 350°C and 83 to 228 bar, respectively, and for reaction times of 5 to 360 min. Initially, the SUS sample exhibited very high ecotoxicity, which was drastically reduced by the HTO process. More specifically, the ecotoxicity towards bacteria was reduced more than 90% for all HTO conditions, while the reduction in algal toxicity was in the range 48% to 66%, 59% to 86% and 60% to 82% at reaction temperatures of 199°C, 279°C, and 350°C, respectively. Furthermore, this work shows how typical wastewater chemical analyses, such as COD and TOC, and ecotoxicity tests towards different organisms provide complementary information, which should be used in combination to optimize operating conditions of the HTO process.

Abstract
Remediation of environmental toxic pollutants has attracted extensive attention in recent years. Microbial bioremediation has been an important technology for removing toxic pollutants. However, microbial activity is also susceptible to toxicity stress in the process of intracellular detoxification, which significantly reduces microbial activity. Electroactive microorganisms (EAMs) can detoxify toxic pollutants extracellularly to a certain extent, which is related to their unique extracellular electron transfer (EET) function. In this review, the extracellular and intracellular aspects of the EAMs’ detoxification mechanisms are explored separately. Additionally, various strategies for enhancing the effect of extracellular detoxification are discussed. Finally, future research directions are proposed based on the bottlenecks encountered in the current studies. This review can contribute to the development of toxic pollutants remediation technologies based on EAMs, and provide theoretical and technical support for future practical engineering applications.

Abstract
The Fenton reaction is limited by a narrow acidic pH range, the slow reduction of Fe(III), and susceptibility of the nonselective hydroxyl radical (HO•) to scavenging by water constituents. Here, we employed the biodegradable chelating agent picolinic acid (PICA) to address these concerns. Compared to the classical Fenton reaction at pH 3.0, PICA greatly accelerated the degradation of atrazine, sulfamethazine, and various substituted phenols at pH 5.0 in a reaction with autocatalytic characteristics. Although HO• served as the principal oxidant, a high-spin, end-on hydroperoxo intermediate, tentatively identified as PICA-FeIII-OOH, also exhibited reactivity toward several test compounds. Chloride release from the oxidation of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol and the positive slope of the Hammett correlation for a series of halogenated phenols were consistent with PICA-FeIII-OOH reacting as a nucleophilic oxidant. Compared to HO•, PICA-FeIII-OOH is less sensitive to potential scavengers in environmental water samples. Kinetic analysis reveals that PICA facilitates Fe(III)/Fe(II) transformation by accelerating Fe(III) reduction by H2O2. Autocatalysis is ascribed to the buildup of Fe(II) from the reduction of Fe(III) by H2O2 as well as PICA oxidation products. PICA assistance in the Fenton reaction may be beneficial to wastewater treatment because it favors iron cycling, extends the pH range, and balances oxidation universality with selectivity.

Abstract
To overcome the high biotoxicity and poor biodegradability of pyridine and its derivatives, a pre-electrochemical treatment combined with fixed bed biofilm reactor (EC-FBBR) was designed for multi-component stream including pyridine (Pyr), 3-cyanopyridine (3-CNPyr), and 3-chloropyridine (3-ClPyr). The EC-FBBR system could simultaneously degrade these pollutants with a mineralization efficiency of 90%, especially for the persistent 3-ClPyr. Specifically, the EC could partially degrade all pollutants, and allow them to be completely destructed in FBBR. With EC off, Rhodococcus (35.5%) became the most abundant genus in biofilm, probably due to its high tolerance to 3-ClPyr. With EC on, 3-ClPyr was reduced to an acceptable level, thus Paracoccus (21.1%) outcompeted among interspecies competition with Rhodococcus and became the dominant genus. Paracoccus was considered to participate in the subsequent degradation for the residual 3-ClPyr, and led to the complete destruction for all pollutants. This study proposed promising combination for effective treatment of multi-component pyridine wastewater.

Abstract
The biogas production technology has improved over the last years for the aim of reducing the costs of the process, increasing the biogas yields, and minimizing the greenhouse gas emissions. To obtain a stable and efficient biogas production, there are several design considerations and operational parameters to be taken into account. Besides, adapting the process to unanticipated conditions can be achieved by adequate monitoring of various operational parameters. This paper reviews the research that has been conducted over the last years. This review paper summarizes the developments in biogas design and operation, while highlighting the main factors that affect the efficiency of the anaerobic digestion process. The study’s outcomes revealed that the optimum operational values of the main parameters may vary from one biogas plant to another. Additionally, the negative conditions that should be avoided while operating a biogas plant were identified.

Abstract
Burkholderia sp. ZD1, aerobically utilizes 2-picolinic acid as a source of carbon, nitrogen and energy, was isolated. ZD1 completely degraded 2-picolinic acid when the initial concentrations ranged from 25 to 300mg/L. Specific growth rate (μ) and specific consumption rate (q) increased continually in the concentration range of 25-100mg/L, and then declined. Based on the Haldane model and Andrew's model, μmax and qmax were calculated as 3.9 and 16.5h-1, respectively. Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR-MS) was used to determine the main intermediates in the degradation pathway. Moreover, attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) was innovatively used to deduce the ring cleavage mechanism of N-heterocycle of 2-picolinic acid. To our knowledge, this is the first report on not only the utilization of 2-picolinic acid by a Burkholderia sp., but also applying FT-ICR-MS and ATR-FTIR for exploring the biodegradation pathway of organic compounds.

Abstract
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are a key constituent of excess sludge produced by Aerobic Sewage Sludge Treatment plants. The accumulation of significant amount of PHA inside aerobic microbial cells occurs when a surplus of an easily degradable carbon source (e.g., volatile fatty acids, VFA) is found in combination with other nutrients limitation. Herein, hydrothermal treatment (HT) of PHA-containing sludge at 300 and 375 °C was demonstrated to be effective in converting most (>70% w/w) of the bacterial PHA stored inside microbial cells into alkene/CO2 gas mixtures. Simultaneously, most of non-PHA biomass was converted into water-soluble compounds (50% carbon yield) that were acidogenic fermented to produce volatile fatty acids, ideal substrate to feed aerobic bacteria and produce more PHA. According to results here presented, HT of excess sludge with moderate (13%) PHA content can produce about 50 kg of alkenes per tonne of suspended solids treated, with a significant reduction of sludge mass (80% reduction of wet sludge volume) and consequent disposal cost.

Abstract
Hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) is a promising process for converting wet biomass and organic wastes into bio-crude oil. It also produces an aqueous product referred to as post-hydrothermal liquefaction wastewater (PHWW) containing up to 40% of the original feedstock carbon, which reduces the overall energy efficiency of the HTL process. This study investigated the feasibility of using anaerobic digestion (AD) to treat PHWW, with the aid of activated carbon. Results showed that successful AD occurred at relatively low concentrations of PHWW (≤ 6.7%), producing a biogas yield of 0.5 ml/mg CODremoved, and ∼53% energy recovery efficiency. Higher concentrations of PHWW (≥13.3%) had an inhibitory effect on the AD process, as indicated by delayed, slower, or no biogas production. Activated carbon was shown to effectively mitigate this inhibitory effect by enhancing biogas production and allowing digestion to proceed at higher PHWW concentrations (up to 33.3%), likely due to sequestering toxic organic compounds. The addition of activated carbon also increased the net energy recovery efficiency of AD with a relatively high concentration of PHWW (33.3%), taking into account the energy for producing activated carbon. These results suggest that AD is a feasible approach to treat PHWW, and to improve the energy efficiency of the HTL processes.

Abstract
Background The agrichemical 4-aminopyridine is used as a bird repellent in crop fields and has an epileptogenic action in a variety of animals, including man and mouse. 4-Aminopyridine is biodegraded in the environment through an unknown mechanism. Results A 4-aminopyridine-degrading enrichment culture utilized 4-aminopyridine as a carbon, nitrogen, and energy source, generating 4-amino-3-hydroxypyridine, 3,4-dihydroxypyridine, and formate as intermediates. 4-Amino-3-hydroxypyridine could not be further metabolized and probably accumulated as a dead-end product in the culture. Biodegradability tests and partial sequence analysis of the enrichment culture indicated that 4-aminopyridine was mainly degraded via 3,4-dihydroxypyridine and that the metabolite is probably cleaved by 3-hydroxy-4-pyridone dioxygenase. Seven culturable predominant bacterial strains (strains 4AP-A to 4AP-G) were isolated on nutrient agar plates. Changes in the bacterial populations of 4-aminopyridine, 3,4-dihydroxypyridine, or formate/ammonium chloride enrichment cultures were monitored by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) profiling of PCR-amplified 16S rRNA gene fragments. Sequence analysis of the 16S rRNA gene fragments derived from predominant DGGE bands indicated that Pseudomonas nitroreducens 4AP-A and Enterobacter sp. 4AP-G were predominant in the three tested enrichment cultures and that the unculturable strains Hyphomicrobium sp. 4AP-Y and Elizabethkingia sp. 4AP-Z were predominant in 4-aminopyridine and formate/ammonium chloride enrichment cultures and in the 3,4-dihydroxypyridine enrichment culture, respectively. Among the culturable strains, strain 4AP-A could utilize 3,4-dihydroxypyridine as a growth substrate. Although we could not isolate strain 4AP-Y on several media, PCR-DGGE analysis and microscopy indicated that the unique bi-polar filamentous bacterial cells gradually became more dominant with increasing 4-aminopyridine concentration in the medium. Conclusions Hyphomicrobium sp. 4AP-Y, P. nitroreducens 4AP-A, and Elizabethkingia sp. 4AP-Z probably play important roles in 4-aminopyridine degradation in crop fields. In the enrichment culture, 3,4-dihydroxypyridine and its metabolites including formate might be shared as growth substrates and maintain the enrichment culture, including these indispensable strains.

Abstract
The degradation of 2-chloropyridine (2-CPY) and its degradation primary product 2-hydroxypyridine (2-HPY) was studied by means of ultraviolet (UV) irradiation at 254nm. Photolytic and photocatalytic experiments were conducted on 2-CPY and 2-HPY aqueous solutions in a batch reactor with internal recycle in laminar and turbulent conditions at 50 degrees C in a closed but not airtight system with and without additional aeration, at solution ambient pH and at controlled pH conditions, with use and in the absence of radical scavenger. The solution volume was 0.4L and initial substrate concentrations were approximately 2.6mmol/L (0.25-0.3g/L depending on the substrate). Where applicable 1g/L TiO(2) (P-25) was used, suspended in the liquid in a form of turbulent slurry or using a glass tube around the UV-lamp on which a fixed TiO(2) catalytic layer had been deposited. At the aforementioned conditions 2-CPY readily degrades photolytically, the catalytic path having very little influence. In all cases 2-CPY produces 2-HPY which further degrades to other products. Aeration, pH and the presence of catalyst and/or radical scavengers do not affect the rate of decomposition of 2-CPY, but have a strong influence on the further decomposition of the produced 2-HPY. 2-HPY decomposition proceeds both catalytically and photolytically following oxygen dependent and oxygen independent pathways.

Abstract
A series of 2-, 3- and 4-substituted pyridines was metabolised using the mutant soil bacterium Pseudomonas putida UV4 which contains a toluene dioxygenase (TDO) enzyme. The regioselectivity of the biotransformation in each case was determined by the position of the substituent. 4-Alkylpyridines were hydroxylated exclusively on the ring to give the corresponding 4-substituted 3-hydroxypyridines, while 3-alkylpyridines were hydroxylated stereoselectively on C-1 of the alkyl group with no evidence of ring hydroxylation. 2-Alkylpyridines gave both ring and side-chain hydroxylation products. Choro- and bromo-substituted pyridines, and pyridine itself, while being poor substrates for P. putida UV4, were converted to some extent to the corresponding 3-hydroxypyridines. These unoptimised biotransformations are rare examples of the direct enzyme-catalysed oxidation of pyridine rings and provide a novel synthetic method for the preparation of substituted pyridinols. Evidence for the involvement of the same TDO enzyme in both ring and side-chain hydroxylation pathways was obtained using a recombinant strain of Escherichia coli (pKST11) containing a cloned gene for TDO. The observed stereoselectivity of the side-chain hydroxylation process in P. putida UV4 was complicated by the action of an alcohol dehydrogenase enzyme in the organism which slowly leads to epimerisation of the initial (R)-alcohol bioproducts by dehydrogenation to the corresponding ketones followed by stereoselective reduction to the (S)-alcohols.
