Abstract
Even if Archaea deliver important ecosystem services and are major players in global biogeochemical cycles, they remain poorly understood in freshwater ecosystems. To our knowledge, no studies specifically address the direct impact of xenobiotics on the riverine archaeome. Using environmental DNA metabarcoding of the 16S ribosomal gene, we previously demonstrated bacterial communities significant shifts linked to pollutant mixtures during an extreme flood in a typical Mediterranean coastal watercourse. Here, using the same methodology, we sought to determine whether archaeal community shifts coincided with the delivery of environmental stressors during the same flood. Further, we wanted to determine how archaea taxa compared at different seasons. In contrast to the bacteriome, the archaeome showed a specific community in summer compared to winter and autumn. We also identified a significant relationship between in situ archaeome shifts and changes in physicochemical parameters along the flood, but a less marked link to those parameters correlated to river hydrodynamics than bacteria. New urban-specific archaeal taxa significantly related to multiple stressors were identified. Through statistical modeling of both domains, our results demonstrate that Archaea, seldom considered as bioindicators of water quality, have the potential to improve monitoring methods of watersheds.

Pan J, Huo T, Yang H, Li Z, Chen L, Niu Z, Ni S, Liu S. Metabolic patterns reveal enhanced anammox activity at low nitrogen conditions in the integrated I-ABR. WATER ENVIRONMENT RESEARCH : A RESEARCH PUBLICATION OF THE WATER ENVIRONMENT FEDERATION 2021; 93:1455-1465. [PMID: 33434312 DOI: 10.1002/wer.1511] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/15/2020] [Revised: 12/08/2020] [Accepted: 12/26/2020] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Substrate concentrations greatly influence bacterial growth and metabolism. However, optimal nitrogen concentrations for anammox bacteria in nitrogen-limited environments remain unclear. Here, we observed enhanced nitrogen metabolism and anabolism of anammox bacteria at low nitrogen conditions. Efficient nitrogen removal was achieved at ammonium and nitrite influent concentration of 30 mg/L under HRT of 1 hr, with an average nitrogen removal rate (NRR) of 0.73 kg N/(m3 ·day) in I-ABR composed of four compartments. The highest anammox activity of 6.25 mmol N/ (gVSS·hr) was observed in the fourth compartment (C4) with the lowest substrate levels (ammonium and nitrite of 11.6 mg/L and 7 mg/L). This could be resulted from the highest expression level of genes involved in nitrogen metabolism in C4, which was 1.49-1.67 times higher than that in other compartments. Besides, the second compartment (C2) exhibited the most active anabolism at ammonium and nitrite of 17 mg/L and 13 mg/L, respectively, which contributed to the most active amino acid synthesis and thus the highest EPS (1.35 times higher) in C2. This enhanced amino acid auxotrophy between anammox bacteria with heterotrophs, and consequently, heterotrophs thrived and competed for nitrite. These results hint at the potential application of anammox process in micro-polluted water. PRACTITIONER POINTS: High nitrogen removal and efficient biomass retention at low nitrogen concentrations under short HRT was achieved in I-ABR. Optimal concentrations for anammox nitrogen removal and anabolism were discussed under low nitrogen concentrations. More active anabolism contributed to enhanced amino acid synthesis and thus higher EPS contents. Low substrate levels led to enhanced expression of genes involved in nitrogen metabolism and thus high anammox activity.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
In this study, the biodegradation of N-acetyl-para-aminophenol also known as acetaminophen (APAP, paracetamol) was studied by bacterial strain Bacillus drentensis strain S1 (accession no. KY623719) isolated from sewage sample.
Results
The Bacillus drentensis strain S1 was isolated from the sewage sample using the enrichment culture method. As per our knowledge this is the first Bacillus drentensis strain reported for the degradation of APAP. In this study a 20-L batch reactor was employed for degradation of APAP. The maximum specific growth rate (μmax) was observed at 400 mg/L concentration of APAP. The pilot-scale anaerobic batch reactor of was stable and self-buffered. The degradation in pilot-scale reactor was slow as compared to batch experiments due to fluctuation in pH and exhaustion of nutrients. Design-Expert® software was used for optimization of conditions for APAP degradation; such as temperature (40 °C), pH (7.0), concentration of APAP (300 g/L) and agitation speed (165 rpm). The FTIR and GC–MS were used to identify the degradation metabolites. The intermediates of degradation like 2-isopropyl-5-methylcyclohexanone and phenothiazine were observed, based on these results the metabolic pathway has been predicted.
Conclusions
The optimization, kinetic, batch study and pilot study indicates the potential of Bacillus drentensis strain S1 for degradation of acetaminophen. The experimental design, optimization and statistical analysis were performed by Design Expert® software. The optimal growth condition for Bacillus drentensis strain S1 was found to be at temperature 40 °C, pH 7, acetaminophen at concentration of 300 (mg/L) and agitation speed 165 rpm. The GC–MS and FTIR was used for identification of metabolites produced during acetaminophen degradation and the partial metabolic pathway for degradation of acetaminophen was also proposed .

Abstract
The main objective of this work was to reduce the inhibitory effects of high contents of organics, ammonia, and heavy metals in an anaerobic buffled reactor (ABR), and to prevent the sludge wash-out using zeolites as media. In this work, a pilot scale of ABR with 8 compartments and a working volume of 14.4 L was used, and the last four ABR compartments were filled with a zeolite. The bioreactor was operated at HRTs of 3, 4, and 5 days, zeolite filling ratios of 10, 20, and 30%, and influent chemical oxygen demand (COD) concentrations of 10,000, 20,000, and 30,000 mg/L. The results obtained showed that the maximum removal efficiencies of COD and BOD5 reached 78 and 68%, respectively. The maximum removal was observed at a HRT of 5 days, a 30% medium filling ratio, and a COD of 10,000 mg/L. Increasing the filling ratio in the reactor increased the removal efficiencies of COD and BOD5 but increasing the concentration of the influent COD and decreasing HRT reduced the removal efficiency of the reactor. The initial BOD5/COD ratio was equal to 0.36, which increased by 46% when the medium filling ratio was elevated to 30%. The maximum biogas yield was 0.23 L/g of CODRemoved, and the specific methanogenic activity test verified the toxicity effect of the leachate on the gas-producer organisms. The results of scanning electronic microscopy and EDS showed that the zeolite medium immobilized the microorganisms and a biofilm was formed. Also the zeolite, as a well-known ion exchanger, decreased the concentrations of the major inhibitors (ammonia and heavy metals) and improved the reactor efficiency.

Abstract
Secondary effluent from paper mill was characterized by poor biodegradability and containing recalcitrant compounds. In this study, four bioreactors, including a sequencing batch biofilm reactor (SBBR), a stirred-tank reactor (STR) and two submerged aeration reactors (SAR) were used to treat secondary effluent from a recycled paper mill respectively. The results indicated that chemical oxygen demand (COD) was increased by SAR2 treatment and COD removal efficiency for SBBR, SAR1 and STR was 39.7%, 15.7% and 30.9% respectively. It is suggested that recalcitrant compounds were removed by SBBR, SAR1 and STR respectively. Total nitrogen (TN) and total phosphorus (TP) of wastewater were increased by treatments of each bioreactor, which suggested that endogenous respiration of biomass occurred during the treatment. Microbial analysis of sludge from different bioreactors suggested that the removal of recalcitrant compounds in SBBR and STR might be related to the presence of unique microorganisms in each reactor.

Abstract
Microbial content formed in bioreactors plays a significant role in the anaerobic process. Therefore, the physicochemical characteristics of microbial content in a modified anaerobic inclining-baffled reactor (MAI-BR) treating recycled paper mill effluent (RPME) were investigated using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), thermogravimetric (TG), and derivative thermogravimetric (DTG) analyses, scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), and surface area analyzer. FTIR spectra revealed that the microbial content had stronger characteristic peaks corresponding to alcohols, water, lipids carbohydrates, proteins, and mineral compounds. Calcite, muscovite, and lepidolite were the prevalent mineral phases found by XRD analysis. The elemental of these minerals like C, Ca, N, O, and Si was confirmed by XPS results. The microbial content samples from each compartment showed similar thermal behavior. SEM images showed that straight rod-shaped and Methanosaeta-like microorganisms were predominant, whereas C, O, and Ca were noticed by EDS on the surface of granules. The BET surface areas and pores of granules are found to decline throughout the reactor's compartment, where Compartment 1 had the largest values. Thus, the findings of this study establish further understanding of the physicochemical properties of microbial content formed in MAI-BR during the RPME treatment.

Abstract
The performance of modified anaerobic inclining-baffled reactor (MAI-BR) treating recycled paper mill effluent (RPME) was investigated by varying the influent chemical oxygen demand (CODin) concentration from 1000 to 4000 mg/L, and the hydraulic retention time (HRT) from 3 to 1 day, corresponding to an organic loading rate increase from 0.33 to 4 g COD/L day. Throughout 126 days of operation, a maximum removal efficiency of up to 96% of chemical oxygen demand (COD) and 99% of biological oxygen demand, methane (CH4) yield of 0.259 L CH4/g COD, and a stable effluent pH of 6.5 were achieved. Furthermore, the compartmental performance showed that most of the organic substrates were removed in the initial two compartments, resulting in low pH and alkalinity levels and a high concentration of volatile fatty acids. Overall, the results showed that the MAI-BR successfully treated RPME, and the performance was affected by the variation of HRT more than the CODin.
