Abstract
Magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4-NPs) have been demonstrated to be involved in direct interspecies electron transfer between syntrophic bacteria, yet a comprehensive assessment of the ability of Fe3O4-NPs to cope with process instability and volatile fatty acids (VFAs) accumulation in scaled-up anaerobic reactors is still lacking. Here, we investigated the start-up characteristics of an expanded granular sludge bed (EGSB) with Fe3O4-NPs as an adjuvant at high organic loading rate (OLR). The results showed that the methane production rate of R1 (with Fe3O4-NPs) was approximately 1.65 folds of R0 (control), and effluent COD removal efficiency was maintained at approximately 98.32% upon 20 kg COD/(m3·d) OLR. The components of volatile fatty acids are acetate and propionate, and the rapid scavenging of propionate accumulation was the difference between R1 and the control. The INT-ETS activity of R1 was consistently higher than that of R0 and R2, and the electron transfer efficiencies increased by 68.78% and 131.44%, respectively. Meanwhile, the CV curve analysis showed that the current of R1 was 40% higher than R3 (temporary addition of Fe3O4-NPs), indicating that multiple electron transfer modes might coexist. High-throughput analysis further revealed that it was difficult to reverse the progressive deterioration of system performance with increasing OLR by simply reconfiguring bacterial community structure and abundance, demonstrating that the Fe3O4-NPs-mediated DIET pathway is a prerequisite for establishing multiple electron transfer systems. This study provides a long-term and multi-scale assessment of the gaining effect of Fe3O4-NPs in anaerobic digestion scale-up devices, and provides technical support for their practical engineering applications.

Yan Z, Han X, Wang H, Jin Y, Song X. Influence of aeration modes and DO on simultaneous nitrification and denitrification in treatment of hypersaline high-strength nitrogen wastewater using sequencing batch biofilm reactor (SBBR). JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2024; 359:121075. [PMID: 38723502 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2024.121075] [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: 02/03/2024] [Revised: 04/19/2024] [Accepted: 04/30/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024]
Abstract
Sequencing batch biofilm reactor (SBBR) has the potential to treat hypersaline high-strength nitrogen wastewater by simultaneous nitrification-denitrification (SND). Dissolved oxygen (DO) and aeration modes are major factors affecting pollutant removal. Low DO (0.35-3.5 mg/L) and alternative anoxic/aerobic (A/O) mode are commonly used for municipal wastewater treatment, however, the appropriate DO concentration and operation mode are still unknown under hypersaline environment because of the restricted oxygen transfer in denser extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) barrier and the decreased carbon source consumption during the anoxic phase. Herein, two SBBRs (R1, fully aerobic mode; R2, A/O mode) were used for the treatment of hypersaline high-strength nitrogen wastewater (200 mg/L NH4+-N, COD/N of 3 and 3% salinity). The results showed that the relatively low DO (2 mg/L) could not realize effective nitrification, while high DO (4.5 mg/L) evidently increased nitrification efficiency by enhancing oxygen transfer in denser biofilm that was stimulated by high salinity. A stable SND was reached 16 days faster with a ∼10% increase of TN removal under A/O mode. Mechanism analysis found that denser biofilm with coccus and bacillus were present in A/O mode instead of filamentous microorganisms, with the secretion of more EPS. Corynebacterium and Halomonas were the dominant genera in both SBBRs, and HN-AD process might assist partial nitrification-denitrification (PND) for highly efficient TN removal in biofilm systems. By using the appropriate operation mode and parameters, the average NH4+-N and TN removal efficiency could respectively reach 100% and 70.8% under the NLR of 0.2 kg N·m-3·d-1 (COD/N of 3), which was the highest among the published works using SND-based SBBRs in treatment of saline high-strength ammonia nitrogen (low COD/N) wastewater. This study provided new insights in biofilm under hypersaline stress and provided a solution for the treatment of hypersaline high-strength nitrogen (low COD/N) water.

Abstract
Electro-catalytic technology is a promising approach for wastewater treatment, owing to its easy operation, minimal generation of secondary pollution, small foot-print and rapid start-up. In this work, the chlorine evolution potential of the Pd-Sn modified ruthenium(Ru)-iridium(Ir) electrode was investigated for the electro-catalytic treatment of high chlorine ammonia-nitrogen wastewater. The effect of reaction conditions on the removal of ammonia-nitrogen, kinetics and apparent activation energy of ammonia-nitrogen removal were studied. The possible denitrification process of high chlorine ammonia-nitrogen wastewater was discussed. The results indicated that the chlorine evolution potential of the Pd-Sn modified Ru-Ir electrode was 1.0956 V(vs. SCE). The electro-catalytic treatment of high chlorine ammonia-nitrogen conformed to zero-order kinetic law, and the apparent activation energy of removal process was 14.089 kJ/mol. With a current was 0.5 A, the removal efficiency of ammonia-nitrogen could achieve 100% at a reaction time of 40 min. Indirect oxidation played an essential role in the electro-catalytic ammonia-nitrogen removal using the Pd-Sn modified Ru-Ir electrode. This paper demonstrated that the electro-catalytic technology was a promising approach for efficiently treating the high chlorine ammonia-nitrogen wastewater.

Abstract
The chemical oxygen demand (COD) in municipal wastewater has become an obstacle for anammox in mainstream applications. In this study, the single chamber microbial fuel cell (MFC) was installed as an influent device for a partial nitrification-sequencing batch reactor (PN-SBR) to realize integrating COD removal and partial nitrification. After 80 days of operation, the nitrite accumulation rate reached 93%, while the COD removal efficiency was 56%. The output voltage and the power density of MFC were 66.62 mV and 2.40 W/m3, respectively. The content of EPS, especially polysaccharides in the stable phase, has increased compared with the seed sludge. The most dominant genus in MFC anode biofilm and SBR granular sludge was Thauera, which has organic compounds degradation capacity and could degrade nitrate. This study revealed the microbial interaction between MFC and partial nitrification and provided a new strategy for stable ammonia and nitrite supply for mainstream anammox plants.

Abstract
Freezing-thawing events contribute to the accumulation of soil organic matter and the formation of high fertility black soil. On this base, we explore the influence of the combination of liquid artificial humic acid (LA-HA) and freezing-thawing events on strengthening carbon sequestration in soils. The measurements of the total organic carbon (TOC) and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) content illustrate that the applications of LA-HA indeed largely enhanced the persistent carbon reservoirs during freezing-thawing cycles, and the highest TOC net increment was found as up to 4000 mg/kg (0.36 wt% C with the control treatment versus 0.79 wt% C with 300 mL/kg LA-HA (3LA-HA) treatment after 10 freezing-thawing cycles). Spectral analysis reveals that LA-HA treatments accelerated the formation of additional humic substances under freezing-thawing events, i.e., the transformation of labile carbon to resistant carbon. Finally, the results of highthroughput sequencing corresponding to cbbL gene demonstrate that 3LA-HA functioned to optimizing the community structure of carbon sequestration bacteria and improving the dominant position of part bacteria with strong carbon fixation ability to reduce soil carbon loss after thawing, e.g., Mycolicibacterium gadium and Starkeya novella.

Effective co-treatment of synthetic acid mine drainage and domestic sewage using multi-unit passive treatment system supplemented with silage fermentation broth as carbon source.

Abstract
A multi-unit passive treatment system was constructed for co-treatment of synthetic acid mine drainage (AMD) and domestic sewage supplemented with silage fermentation broth as carbon source. AMD and domestic sewage mixing pretreatment (unit 1) improved influent quality with pH increase, metals removal and nutrients supplement. The generated metal-rich sludge in unit 1 retained the metals (69.95% of Fe, 97.36% of Cu, 96.53% of Cd, 72.52% of Zn, and 8.59% of Mn) of influent prior to entering subsequent bioreactors. Silage fermentation broth performed well to promote bacterial sulfate reduction in sulfate reducing bioreactor system (unit 2). Residual metals (Mn) and organic/nutrient pollutants were further polished in surface-flow aerobic wetland (unit 3), where relatively high pH (7.4-8.6), aerobic condition, potential Mn-oxidizing bacteria, limestone layer and low concentrations of Fe(II) (0.04-3.5 mg/L) favored the efficient removal of Mn. After 210-day continuous flow-through experiment, this passive treatment system demonstrated the efficient performance, increasing pH from 2.5 to 8.0 with removal of metals (99%), sulfate and organic/nutrient pollutants. Diverse sulfate reducing bacteria including complete organic oxidizers (e.g. Desulfobacter) and incomplete organic oxidizers (e.g. Desulfovibrio) promoted sulfate reduction and organic/nutrient pollutants removal. Ammonia oxidizing bacteria (e.g. Nitrosomonas) and nitrite oxidizing bacteria (e.g. unidentified_Nitrospiraceae) were the potential nitrifiers for ammonia removal. Collaboration of anaerobic denitrifiers (e.g. Denitratisoma) and potential heterotrophic nitrifying and aerobic denitrifiers (HN-AD) achieved effective nitrate removal. This multi-unit treatment system with domestic sewage and silage fermentation broth as stimulation substrates provided an attractive option for AMD treatment.

Abstract
The low methanogenic efficiency of protein wastewater during anaerobic digestion can be attributed to the hydrolysis rate-limiting caused by the complex native structure of protein. In this study, the characterization of secondary structure alterations of protein molecules under acid-base stress was investigated and the effect of structure and conformation alterations on the methanogenic efficiency of protein wastewater biotransformation was analyzed. The optimal methane yields were obtained for protein wastewater pretreated with acid and base at pH = 3 and pH = 12, which was 29.4% and 35.7% higher than that of the control group (without pretreatment), reaching 142.6 ± 4.0 mL/g protein and 149.6 ± 16.1 mL/g protein, respectively. The time economy evaluation showed that 6 h pretreatment time was scientific and reasonable whether pH = 3 or pH = 12, since the methane gain effect reached 74.4% and 82.2% longing with the anaerobic digestion proceeded to 120 h, respectively. Endogenous fluorescence characteristics illustrated that the microenvironment of protein molecules has changed regardless of acid or alkali pretreatment. The circular dichroism (CD) analysis revealed that only the content of α-helix in the secondary structure of the protein at pH = 12 decreased by 46.3%, while the contents of β-sheet, β-turn and unordered structure were 29.5 ± 0.8%, 18.9 ± 0.6% and 32.2 ± 1.3%, respectively. The increase in the composition of the unordered structure demonstrated an irreversible damage to the hydrogen bonding network in the protein. FTIR spectroscopy further confirmed that the stretching vibrations of CO in amide I led to the destruction of the hydrogen bonding network and the unfolding of the protein structure. Thus, the above work provides new insights into the anaerobic digestion of protein wastewater for methanogenic processes from the perspective of protein structure and conformational changes.

Abstract
In this paper, Pd-Sn modified Ru-Ir electrode was prepared by thermal oxidation method, and the effects of doping amount of Pd-Sn and synthesis conditions on Pd-Sn modified Ru-Ir electrode performance were studied. Linear sweep voltammetry(LSV), cyclic voltammetry(CV), and the Tafel curve were used to study the electrochemical performance of the Pd-Sn modified Ru-Ir electrode materials. The effects of the doping amount of Pd-Sn on the microstructure and valence states of Pd-Sn modified Ru-Ir electrode materials were investigated by SEM, TEM, XRD, and XPS. When the mass of Pd-Sn accounted for 1.5% of the total mass of the elements, the molar ratio of Ru-Ir was 2:1, and the molar ratio of Pd-Sn was 3:1; the LSV, CV, and the Tafel curves indicated that Pd-Sn modified Ru-Ir electrode had the lowest chlorine evolution potential (1.0640 V vs. SCE), the best CV curve coincidence, and the smallest corrosion current density (6.5 × 10-4 A/cm2), showing the best chlorine evolution performance, the best durability, and corrosion resistance; the characterization of SEM, TEM, XRD, and XPS showed that Pd-Sn was successfully doped into Ru-Ir electrode materials; the crystallinity of Pd-Sn modified Ru-Ir electrode was the highest, and the binding energy was the lowest, but the crystal form of Ru-Ir solid solution did not have changed. The optimal synthesis conditions of Pd-Sn modified Ru-Ir electrode material were as follows: Pd-Sn molar ratio was 3:1, calcination temperature was 500 ℃, calcination time was 4 h, and water was used as solvent. Pd-Sn modified Ru-Ir electrode can efficiently treat high chlorine ammonia-nitrogen wastewater, when the reaction volume was 200 mL, the initial concentration of NH3-N was 100 mg/L, the concentration of chloride ion was 5000 mg/L, the current was 0.75 A, and the reaction time was 40 min; the removal rate of ammonia nitrogen can reach 100%.Responsible editor: Weiming Zhang.

Abstract
The occurrence of the Maillard reaction and melanoidins formation during the hydrothermal treatment of food waste can reduce the yield of volatile fatty acids (VFA); however, few studies have investigated the adverse effects of the Maillard reaction. This study identified the impact of hydrothermal treatment parameters on hydrolysis and melanoidins formation and optimized the hydrothermal treatment conditions to enhance VFA production by minimizing the impact of the Maillard reaction. A response surface methodology was employed to optimize the hydrothermal treatment parameters and VFA production was evaluated. Results showed that temperature, reaction time, and pH were significant interacting factors with respect to hydrolysis and melanoidins formation while the C/N ratio and moisture content of food waste had little impact. The optimal conditions for hydrothermal treatment (temperature of 132 °C, reaction time of 27 min, and a pH of 5.6) enhanced VFA production by 22.1%. Under optimal hydrothermal treatment conditions, a higher initial C/N ratio further increased VFA production.

Zhang X, Ding J, Gao F, Zhou X, Wei J, Liang Z, Liu Z, Xiao X, Wu Z. Enhancement of nitrogen removal in hybrid wastewater treatment system using ferric citrate modified basalt fiber biocarrier. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2021; 28:10.1007/s11356-021-12941-7.

Abstract
Developing biofilm carriers is of great significance for efficient wastewater treatment. In this work, ferric citrate was used to modify inorganic basalt fiber (BF) biocarrier, thus improving its surface properties and the nitrogen removal in hybrid wastewater treatment system. The results showed that the iron element on modified basalt fiber (Fe-MBF) existed in the forms of ferric citrate, Fe(OH)3, Fe2O3, and FeO. The ferric deposition increased the surface roughness, hydrophilicity and reduced the electronegativity of BF. The water contact angle of BF and Fe-MBF was 117.46° and 64.85°, respectively. The surface zeta potential of BF was -17.64 mV, but shifted positively (-8.67 mV) after deposition modification. The microorganism adhesion tests showed that the attached biomass and extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) content on Fe-MBF biocarrier significantly increased and the attached bacteria had also high viability. The Fe-MBF biocarrier showed good nitrogen removal performance in the hybrid bioreactor, with total nitrogen removal efficiency up to 95.35±0.82%, increasing by about 16% compared to that with unmodified BF biocarrier. This work also provided a green modification strategy to enhance biofilm carrier in wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Advanced nitrogen and phosphorus removal in a single-stage suspending-sludge system was achieved by employing a novel Anaerobic/Oxic/Anoxic (AOA) strategy over 200 days. Satisfactory total inorganic nitrogen (TIN) removal efficiency of 90.4% was achieved and effluent phosphorus was below 0.5 mg/L when treating domestic wastewater with the chemical oxygen demand (COD)/TIN as low as 2.98 ± 1.26. Stable nitritation was maintained with the ammonia residual and low dissolved oxygen of 0.2-0.5 mg/L at aerobic stage following by a post anoxic stage. The much higher activity of ammonia oxidation bacteria (12.99 mgN/gVSS/h) was achieved than the nitrite oxidation bacteria (0.09 mgN/gVSS/h). Notably, improved anammox performance was obtained without initial inoculation, contributing 47.4% to TIN removal. The abundance of Nitrosomonas increased from 0.12% to 0.95% (P < 0.001) and self-enrichment of anammox bacteria Ca. Brocadia was confirmed. It provided new insight into the advanced nutrient removal with comprehensible regulation and less aeration requirement.

Complexing characteristics between Cu(Ⅱ) ions and dissolved organic matter in combined sewer overflows: Implications for the removal of heavy metals by enhanced coagulation. CHEMOSPHERE 2021; 265:129023. [PMID: 33246708 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2020.129023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2020] [Revised: 11/07/2020] [Accepted: 11/14/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
Enhanced coagulation has been widely used in storm tanks to remove heavy metal ions (HMs) from combined sewer overflows (CSOs), but faces challenges on removing the HMs bound to dissolved organic matter (DOM) with small molecular weight (MW). DOM ubiquitously existing in CSOs generally contains a large distribution range of MW, which can significantly impact the MW distribution of HMs by complexing reaction, thereby adding uncertainties for the removal efficiency of coagulation. Therefore, realizing the potential MW distribution of the HMs bound to CSO-DOM is greatly important for cost-effectively removing HMs from CSOs in the coagulation process. This paper presents a comprehensive approach of ultrafiltration, fluorescence quenching titration, excitation-emission matrix parallel factor analysis, complexation model, and two-dimensional correlation fluorescence spectroscopy for exploring the MW-based complexing characteristics between Cu(II) ions and CSO-DOM components. Results show that: (1) Cu(II) ions that bound to the CSO-DOM were mainly distributed in the MW range of <5 kDa, which makes them very difficult to be removed from CSOs by coagulation technique. (2) Concentration effect and molecular composition exerted great impacts on the MW distribution of the Cu(II) ions bound to CSO-DOM. (3) The humic-like component of terrestrial origin with the MW range of 100 kDa∼0.45 μm possessed high binding stability, capacity, and priority with Cu(II) ions, and they could be used at a high concentration to promote the removal efficiency of coagulation for Cu(Ⅱ) ions of CSOs by competitive complexation and inter-molecular bridging.

Abstract
In biological wastewater treatment systems, extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) are continuously excreted as a response to environmental changes and substrate conditions. It could severely affect the treatment efficacy such as membrane fouling, dewaterability and the formation of carcinogenic disinfection by-products (DBPs). The heterogeneous dissolved organic matter (DOM) with varying size and chemical nature constitute a primary proportion of EPS. In the last few decades, fluorescence spectroscopy has received increasing attention for characterizing these organic substances due to the attractive features of this low-cost spectroscopic approach, including easy sample handling, rapid, non-destructive and highly sensitive nature. In this review, we summarize the application of fluorescence spectroscopy for characterizing EPS and provide the potential implications for online monitoring of water quality along with its limitations. We also link the dynamics of fluorescent dissolved organic matter (FDOM) in EPS with operational and environmental changes in wastewater treatment systems as well as their associations with metal binding, membrane fouling, adsorption, toxicity, and dewaterability. The multiple modes of exploration of fluorescence spectra, such as synchronous spectra with or without coupling with two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2D-COS), excitation-emission matrix (EEM) deconvoluted fluorescence regional integration (FRI), and parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC) are also discussed. The potential fluorescence indicators to depict the composition and bulk characteristics of EPS are also of interest. Further studies are highly recommended to expand the application of fluorescence spectroscopy paired with appropriate supplementary techniques to fully unravel the underlying mechanisms associated with EPS.

Abstract
Membrane concentrated landfill leachate (MCLL) contains large amounts of recalcitrant organic matter that cause potential hazards to the environment. Knowledge on the compositional variation of MCLL during treatment is important for a better understanding on the degradation pathway of organic pollutants. In this work, the structural change of MCLL during Fenton oxidation process was examined using spectroscopic techniques. The removal rates of COD, TOC and UV254 reached 78.9 ± 1.3%, 70.2 ± 1.4% and 90.64 ± 1.6%, respectively, under the optimal condition (i.e., dosage of H2O2 = 9.0 mL/200 mL, H2O2/Fe(II) molar ratio = 3.0, pH = 3.0, time = 40 min). Spectral analyses suggested that aromatic/CC structure and CO bonds in MCLL can be successfully destroyed by Fenton oxidation, resulting in a decrease in molecular weight. One fulvic-like and one humic-like components were identified in MCLL, both of which can be removed by Fenton treatment. In addition, two-dimensional correlation spectroscopic analyses suggested the oxidative changes of MCLL structure in the order of fulvic-like component/unsaturated conjugated bond > aromatic structure > humic-like component. The results may provide a new insight to the understanding on the structure variation of MCLL during treatment, which is beneficial for the design of cost-effective treatment strategies.

Abstract
Soluble microbial products (SMPs), as secondary pollutants, comprise a dominant percentage of residual COD in effluents from biological wastewater treatment processes. They can also be regarded as substitute electron sources if the in-situ utilization of SMPs could be achieved. In this study, the fate of SMPs in a sequencing batch reactor (SBR) treating artificial municipal sewage was investigated. Based on the regular SBR operation mode, a 3 h extension of anoxic phase was provided to promote SMP degradation. Meanwhile, the denitrification efficiencies achieved by adopting SMPs and influent organic substrates (IOSs) were compared to reveal the significant contribution of the in-situ utilization of SMP for nitrogen removal. Approximately 21.1 mg N/L of total nitrogen (TN) was removed over a single cyclic reaction, in which only 13.2 mg N/L was removed via IOS-dependent denitrification. The remaining 7.9 mg N/L of TN was realized via SMP-dependent denitrification, including 3.9 mg N/L by utilization-associated products and 4.0 mg N/L by biomass-associated products, which significantly contributed 37.4% of TN removal. The aromatic proteins, tryptophan-like proteins, polysaccharides and fulvic acids contained in SMP were the potential precursors of electron donors to support SMP-dependent denitrification process.

Abstract
Much remains unknown about compositional variations in soluble microbial products (SMP) with the shift of the substrate condition from a feast to a famine phase in biological treatment systems. This study demonstrated that the formation of SMP could be suppressed by up to 75% during the famine phase with the addition of essential nutrients. In contrast, presence of electron acceptor did not play any significant role during the stress condition, showing the similar amounts of SMP (r = 0.98, p < 0.05) formation between the bioreactors supplied with air and N2. The SMP formed in the famine phase was more bio-refractory in the famine versus the feast phase with a linear correlation shown between the production and their aromatic structures in the composition (R2 > 0.95). The fluorescence excitation-emission matrix coupled with parallel factor analysis (EEM-PARAFAC) revealed the presence of four different fluorescent components, including two protein-like (C1 and C4), fulvic-like (C2), and humic-like (C3) components, in the SMP and bEPS formed at different conditions. Both C1 and C4 showed increasing trends (R2 > 0.95) with the length of starvation in the bioreactors without essential nutrients. Nutrient availability was found to be a key factor to quench the production of large-sized biopolymers. This study provides a wealth of information on operation conditions of activated sludge treatment systems to minimize large sized SMP molecules (particularly proteins), which typically exert many environmental concerns to effluent organic matter quality.

Abstract
An advanced electrodialysis fermentation system was set up to remove ammonium during hydrogen fermentation. When the voltage was increased from 0 to 6 V, the average ammonium removal rate was improved from 8.7 to 31.1 mg/L/h at an initial ammonium concentration of 3000 mg/L. A model based on the Nernst-Plank equation and porous media properties of ion exchange membranes was successfully implemented to predict the ammonium removal performance. When such a system was fed with synthetic wastewater at an ammonium concentration of 3000 mg/L for hydrogen fermentation, a significant increase in specific hydrogen yield was observed in the experiment group at 4 V. Specific hydrogen yield was 225.0 mL/g glucose, this value is 47.9% higher than the control. Moreover, ammonium concentration in experiment group was reduced to 701.6 mg/L at 72 h when voltage was set at 4 V, which is 63.7% lower than that in 0 V experiment group.

Abstract
In the present study, the feasibility of treating high ammonia wastewater was evaluated in a combination of aerobic granular sludge nitrification reactor (AGS-SBR) and poly(butylene succinate) solid denitrification reactor (PBS-SBR). After 90 days operation, the effluent NH4+-N and total nitrogen (TN) removal efficiencies were high of 99.6% and 99.7%, respectively. According to typical cycle, N2O emission rate in AGS nitrification process was much higher than PBS denitrification process. It was found from EEM-PARAFAC that the fluorescence intensity scores (protein-like and humic like substances) of soluble microbial products (SMP) in AGS-SBR were the significant higher than in PBS-SBR. Microbial community analysis showed that Thauera was main genus in AGS-SBR and Hydrogenophaga Simplicispira and Thiomonas were dominant genus in PBS-SBR. The obtained result implied that the combined technology is feasible to remove nitrogen compounds from wastewater to meet the stringent emission standards.

[PMID: 31022618 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2019.04.119] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2018] [Revised: 03/13/2019] [Accepted: 04/15/2019] [Indexed: 05/26/2023]
Abstract
Two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2DCOS) has been used as a powerful tool for analyzing spectral features, but it has never been applied to fluorescence excitation-emission matrix (EEM) data due to the incompatible dimensions. This study first investigated EEM-COS by reducing the dimensions of the EEM (using parallel factor analysis, PARAFAC) for fitting to 2DCOS (EEM-PARAFAC-COS). The fluorescence changes of effluent organic matter (EfOM) during ozonation were studied using EEM-COS and synchronous fluorescence (SF)-2DCOS. The conventionally used SF-2DCOS proved to be biased due to the intrinsic drawback of SF, while the EEM-PARAFAC-COS gave accurate and trustworthy results. Homo-EEM-PARAFAC-COS indicated that the fluorescence protein-like and fulvic-like substances in EfOM were preferentially ozonated compared to humic-like substances. Hetero-EEM-PARAFAC-COS analyses on the EEM, FTIR, UV-vis absorbance, and size-exclusion chromatography showed that the fluorescence protein-like and fulvic-like substances in EfOM were associated with lower molecular weight (MW, ∼0.95 kDa), UV absorbance at ∼280 nm, and more electron-enriched aromatics (with amide and phenolic groups), which explained their ozonation preference, while humic-like substances were related to carboxylic groups, UV absorbance at ∼255 nm, and organics at MW of ∼4.50 kDa. This work demonstrated the great potential of EEM-PARAFAC-COS in studying fluorescence change and correlating fluorescence with other spectra.

Front Microbiol 2019; 10:772. [PMID: 31139154 PMCID: PMC6527594 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2019.00772] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2018] [Accepted: 03/26/2019] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
The processes regulating nitrification in soils are not entirely understood. Here we provide evidence that nitrification rates in soil may be affected by complexed nitrate molecules and microbial volatile organic compounds (mVOCs) produced during nitrification. Experiments were carried out to elucidate the overall nature of mVOCs and biogenic nitrates produced by nitrifiers, and their effects on nitrification and redox metabolism. Soils were incubated at three levels of biogenic nitrate. Soils containing biogenic nitrate were compared with soils containing inorganic fertilizer nitrate (KNO3) in terms of redox metabolism potential. Repeated NH4–N addition increased nitrification rates (mM NO31- produced g-1 soil d-1) from 0.49 to 0.65. Soils with higher nitrification rates stimulated (p < 0.01) abundances of 16S rRNA genes by about eight times, amoA genes of nitrifying bacteria by about 25 times, and amoA genes of nitrifying archaea by about 15 times. Soils with biogenic nitrate and KNO3 were incubated under anoxic conditions to undergo anaerobic respiration. The maximum rates of different redox metabolisms (mM electron acceptors reduced g-1 soil d-1) in soil containing biogenic nitrate followed as: NO31- reduction 4.01 ± 0.22, Fe3+ reduction 5.37 ± 0.12, SO42- reduction 9.56 ± 0.16, and CH4 production (μg g-1 soil) 0.46 ± 0.05. Biogenic nitrate inhibited denitrificaton 1.4 times more strongly compared to mineral KNO3. Raman spectra indicated that aliphatic hydrocarbons increased in soil during nitrification, and these compounds probably bind to NO3 to form biogenic nitrate. The mVOCs produced by nitrifiers enhanced (p < 0.05) nitrification rates and abundances of nitrifying bacteria. Experiments suggest that biogenic nitrate and mVOCs affect nitrification and redox metabolism in soil.

Abstract
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) exists ubiquitously in environments and plays critical roles in pollutant mitigation, transformation, and organic geochemical cycling. Understanding its properties and environmental behaviors is critically important to develop water treatment processes and environmental remediation strategies. Generalized two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2DCOS), which has numerous advantages, including enhancing spectral resolution and discerning specific order of structural change under an external perturbation, could be used as a powerful tool to interpret a wide range of spectroscopic signatures relating to DOM. A suite of spectroscopic signatures, such as UV-vis, fluorescence, infrared, and Raman spectra that can be analyzed by 2DCOS, is able to provide additional structural information hiding behind the conventional one-dimensional spectra. In this article, the most recent advances in 2DCOS applications for analyzing DOM-related environmental processes are reviewed, and the state-of-the-art novel spectroscopic techniques in 2DCOS are highlighted. Furthermore, the main limitations and requirements of current approaches for exploring DOM-related environmental processes and how these limitations and drawbacks can be addressed are explored. Finally, suggestions and new approaches are proposed to significantly advance the development of 2DCOS in analyzing the properties and behaviors of DOM in natural and engineered environments.

Abstract
Partial nitrification granular sludge was successfully cultivated in a sequencing batch reactor as a pretreatment for anaerobic ammonium oxidation (Anammox) through shortening settling time. After 250-days operation, the effluent NH4+-N and NO2--N concentrations were average at 277.5 and 280.5 mg/L with nitrite accumulation rate of 87.8%, making it as an ideal influent for Anammox. Simultaneous free ammonia (FA) and free nitrous acid (FNA) played major inhibitory roles on the activity of nitrite oxidizing bacteria (NOB). The MLSS and SVI30 of partial nitrification reactor were 14.6 g/L and 25.0 mL/g, respectively. Polysaccharide (PS) and protein (PN) amounts in extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) from granular sludge were about 1.3 and 2.8 times higher than from seed sludge. High-throughput pyrosequencing results indicated that Nitrosomonas affiliated to the ammonia oxidizing bacteria (AOB) was the predominant group with a proportion of 24.1% in the partial nitrification system.

Three-Dimensional Excitation and Emission Fluorescence-Based Method for Evaluation of Maillard Reaction Products in Food Waste Treatment. J CHEM-NY 2018.

Abstract
Hydrothermal treatment (HT) of food waste (FW) can form Maillard reaction products (MRPs), the biorefractory organic matter due to the occurrence of Maillard reaction. However, the integrating qualitative and quantitative approach to assess MRPs is scarce. The goal of this study was to develop a method to characterize and quantify MRPs created by HT of FW. MRPs were identified by molecular weight fractionation, indirect spectrometric indicators, and three-dimensional excitation-emission fluorescence (3DEEM) analysis. The 3DEEM method combined with fluorescence regional integration (FRI) and parallel factor (PARAFAC) analyses was able to differentiate clearly between MRPs and other dissolved organic compounds compared to other approaches. The volume of fluorescence Φ from FRI and maximum fluorescence intensity Fmax from PARAFAC were found to be suitable quantitative parameters for determination of MRPs in the hydrothermal FW system. These two parameters were validated with samples from hydrothermal FW under various operating temperatures and pH.

Abstract
A novel heterotrophic nitrification-aerobic denitrification bacterium, identified as Janthinobacterium sp. M-11, was isolated from the Songhua River. When the initial ammonium concentration was 5 mg·L-1, 98% of ammonium was removed under cold condition (2 °C) with the C/N ratio of 5 at initial pH 7 and aerobic condition, which demonstrated the significant ammonium removal capacity of M-11 with low nutrient consumption at cold temperature. Denitrification processes under aerobic and anaerobic conditions were also investigated. 89% of nitrite and 89% of nitrate were removed under aerobic condition. Under anaerobic condition, 93% of nitrite and 98% of nitrate were removed. Interestingly, a high amount of nitrite accumulation was observed in the mid-stage of anaerobic denitrification for nitrate. This special phenomenon was probably because of the existence of narG gene amplified in the strain M-11, which would encode membrane-bound nitrate reductase and accelerate the nitrate conversion rate of M-11 under anaerobic condition.
