Solid-liquid redistribution and degradation of antibiotics during hydrothermal treatment of sewage sludge: Interaction between biopolymers and antibiotics. WATER RESEARCH 2024; 258:121759. [PMID: 38754299 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2024.121759] [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: 02/02/2024] [Revised: 04/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/08/2024] [Indexed: 05/18/2024]
Abstract
Waste activated sludge serves an important reservoir for antibiotics within wastewater treatment plants, and understanding the occurrence and evolution of antibiotics during sludge treatment is crucial to mitigate the potential risks of subsequent resource utilization of sludge. This study explores the degradation and transformation mechanisms of three typical antibiotics, oxytetracycline (OTC), ofloxacin (OFL), and azithromycin (AZI) during sludge hydrothermal treatment (HT), and investigates the influence of biopolymers transformation on the fate of these antibiotics. The findings indicate that HT induces a shift of antibiotics from solid-phase adsorption to liquid-phase dissolution in the initial temperature range of 25-90 °C, underscoring this phase's critical role in preparing antibiotics for subsequent degradation phases. Proteins (PN) and humic acids emerge as crucial for antibiotic binding, facilitating their redistribution within sludge. Specifically, the binding capacity sequence of biopolymers to antibiotics is as follows: OFL>OTC>AZI, highlighting that OFL-biopolymers display stronger electrostatic attraction, more available adsorption sites, and more stable binding strength. Furthermore, antibiotic degradation mainly occurs above 90 °C, with AZI being the most temperature-sensitive, degrading 92.97% at 180 °C, followed by OTC (91.26%) and OFL (52.51%). Concurrently, the degradation products of biopolymers compete for active sites to form novel amino acid-antibiotic conjugates, which inhibits the further degradation of antibiotics. These findings illuminate the effects of biopolymers evolution on intricate dynamics of antibiotics fate in sludge HT and are helpful to optimize the sludge HT process for effective antibiotics abatement.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2023; 326:121507. [PMID: 36972812 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2023.121507] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2023] [Revised: 03/10/2023] [Accepted: 03/22/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Aerobic denitrification is being investigated as a novel biological nitrogen removal process, yet the knowledge on aerobic denitrification is limited to pure culture isolations and its occurrence in bioreactors remains unclear. This study investigated the feasibility and capacity of applying aerobic denitrification in membrane aerated biofilm reactor (MABR) for biological treatment of quinoline-laden wastewater. Stable and efficient removals of quinoline (91.5 ± 5.2%) and nitrate (NO3-) (86.5 ± 9.3%) were obtained under different operational conditions. Enhanced formation and function of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) were observed at increasing quinoline loadings. MABR biofilm was highly enriched with aerobic quinoline-degrading bacteria, with a predominance of Rhodococcus (26.9 ± 3.7%) and secondary abundance of Pseudomonas (1.7 ± 1.2%) and Comamonas (0.94 ± 0.9%). Metagenomic analysis indicated that Rhodococcus contributed significantly to both aromatic degradation (24.5 ± 21.3%) and NO3- reduction (4.5 ± 3.9%), indicating its key role in aerobic denitrifying quinoline biodegradation. At increasing quinoline loadings, abundances of aerobic quinoline degradation gene oxoO and denitrifying genes of napA, nirS and nirK increased; there was a significant positive correlation of oxoO with nirS and nirK (p < 0.05). Aerobic quinoline degradation was likely initiated by hydroxylation, encoded by oxoO, followed by stepwise oxidations through 5,6-dihydroxy-1H-2-oxoquinoline or 8-hydroxycoumarin pathway. The results advance our understanding of quinoline degradation during biological nitrogen removal, and highlight the potential implementation of aerobic denitrification driven quinoline biodegradation in MABR for simultaneous removal of nitrogen and recalcitrant organic carbon from coking, coal gasification and pharmaceutical wastewaters.

Abstract
Tetragenococcus halophilus, a halophilic lactic acid bacterium (LAB), plays an important role in the production of high-salt fermented foods. Generally, formation of biofilm benefits the fitness of cells when faced with competitive and increasingly hostile fermented environments. In this work, the biofilm-forming capacity of T. halophilus was investigated. The results showed that the optimal conditions for biofilm formation by T. halophilus were at 3–9% salt content, 0–6% ethanol content, pH 7.0, 30°C, and on the surface of stainless steel. Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) analysis presented a dense and flat biofilm with a thickness of about 24 μm, and higher amounts of live cells were located near the surface of biofilm and more dead cells located at the bottom. Proteins, polysaccharides, extracellular-DNA (eDNA), and humic-like substances were all proved to take part in biofilm formation. Higher basic surface charge, greater hydrophilicity, and lower intracellular lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activities were detected in T. halophilus grown in biofilms. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) imaging revealed that biofilm cultures of T. halophilus had stronger surface adhesion forces than planktonic cells. Cells in biofilm exhibited higher cell viability under acid stress, ethanol stress, heat stress, and oxidative stress. In addition, T. halophilus biofilms exhibited aggregation activity and anti-biofilm activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella Typhimurium. Results presented in the study may contribute to enhancing stress tolerance of T. halophilus and utilize their antagonistic activities against foodborne pathogens during the production of fermented foods.

Abstract
Antibiotics are widely applied to prevent and treat diseases occurred in mariculture. The often-open nature of mariculture production systems has led to antibiotic residue accumulation in the culturing and adjacent environments, which can adversely affect aquatic ecosystems, and even human. This review summarizes the occurrence, environmental behavior, and ecological effects of antibiotics in mariculture systems based on peer-reviewed papers. Forty-five different antibiotics (categorized into ten groups) have been detected in mariculture systems around the world, which is far greater than the number officially allowed. Indiscriminate use of antibiotics is relatively high among major producing countries in Asia, which highlights the need for stricter enforcement of regulations and policies and effective antibiotic removal methods. Compared with other environmental systems, some environmental characteristics of mariculture systems, such as high salinity and dissolved organic matter (DOM) content, can affect the migration and transformation processes of antibiotics. Residues of antibiotics favor the proliferation of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). Antibiotics and ARGs alter microbial communities and biogeochemical cycles, as well as posing threats to marine organisms and human health. This review may provide a valuable summary of the effects of antibiotics on mariculture systems.

Abstract
EPS can affect the migration of antibiotics in biofilm reactors, however the roles of biofilm EPS on the fate of antibiotics and the protective mechanisms to bacterial community remain unknown. We investigated the transport of three representative antibiotics in the biofilm suspension from a moving bed biofilm reactor. Spectral analysis suggested that proteins dominated the interactions between EPS and antibiotics. The adsorbed amounts of antibiotics onto EPS accounted for 14.5%, 88.2% and 13.1% of total concentration for sulfamethizole, tetracycline and norfloxacin, respectively at the biodegradation stage. The respiratory rates and representative enzymatic activities all experienced declines for biofilm without EPS in exposure to antibiotics. Gene sequencing results indicated that the bacterial community in biofilm without EPS was more vulnerable to antibiotics shocks. Our results demonstrated the protective roles of biofilm EPS in resisting antibiotics stresses, which provides important implications for understanding the bioremediation of antibiotics in biofilm systems.

Abstract
The effects of florfenicol (FF) on the performance, microbial activity and microbial community of a sequencing batch biofilm reactor (SBBR) were evaluated in treating mariculture wastewater. The chemical oxygen demand (COD) and nitrogen removal were inhibited at high FF concentrations. The specific oxygen utilization rate (SOUR), specific ammonium oxidation rate (SAOR), specific nitrite oxidation rate (SNOR) and specific nitrate reduction rate (SNRR) were decreased with an increase in the FF concentration from 0 to 35 mg/L. The chemical compositions of loosely bound extracellular polymeric substances (LB-EPS) and tightly bound EPS (TB-EPS) could be affected with an increase in the FF concentration. The high-throughput sequencing indicated some obvious variations in the microbial community at different FF concentrations. The relative abundance of Nitrosomonas and Nitrospira showed a decreasing tendency with an increase in the FF concentration, suggesting that FF could affect the nitrification process of SBBR. Some genera capable of reducing nitrate to nitrogen gas could be inhibited by the addition of FF in the influent, such as Azospirillum and Hyphomicrobium.

Performance evaluation and microbial community of a sequencing batch biofilm reactor (SBBR) treating mariculture wastewater at different chlortetracycline concentrations. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2016; 182:496-504.

Abstract
The effects of chlortetracycline (CTC) on the performance, microbial activity, extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) and microbial community of a sequencing batch biofilm reactor (SBBR) were investigated in treating mariculture wastewater. Low CTC concentration (less than 6 mg/L) had no obvious effect on the SBBR performance, whereas high CTC concentration could inhibit the chemical oxygen demand (COD) and nitrogen removal of the SBBR. The microbial activity of the biofilm in the SBBR decreased with the increase of CTC concentration from 0 to 35 mg/L. The protein (PN) contents were always higher than the PS contents in both loosely bound EPS (LB-EPS) and tightly bound EPS (TB-EPS) at different CTC concentrations. The chemical compositions of LB-EPS and TB-EPS had obvious variations with the increase of CTC concentration from 0 to 35 mg/L. The high-throughput sequencing revealed the effects of CTC on the microbial communities of the biofilm at phylum, class and genus level. The relative abundances of some genera displayed a decreasing tendency with the increase of CTC concentration from 0 to 35 mg/L, such as Nitrospira, Paracoccus, Hyphomicrobium, Azospirillum. However, the relative abundances of the genera Flavobacterium, Aequorivita, Buchnera, Azonexus and Thioalbus increased with the increase of CTC concentration.
