[PMID: 38813235 PMCID: PMC11133930 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e31358] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2023] [Revised: 05/10/2024] [Accepted: 05/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/31/2024] Open
Abstract
The present study focused on the investigation of the performance of a Moving Bed Bioreactor coupled with a Membrane Bioreactor (MBBR-MBR) on a small scale for textile wastewater treatment. The parameters examined in this study included the removal efficiency of chemical oxygen demand (COD), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), total suspended solids (TSS), turbidity, color, and heavy metals (HM). The two reactors were operated consecutively and maintained aerobic conditions. The idea is to reduce the pollutant load significantly through the activity of microorganism attached to the biofilm covered carriers in MBBR and successive membrane filtration. The system demonstrated a favorable outcome even in a smaller hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 1 day, which presents a significant advantage in terms of cost and space saving. The removal effectiveness of COD attained a maximum of 92 %, BOD reached a maximum of 95 %, and the color removal performance obtained a removal efficiency of 87 %. Furthermore, the treatment showed remarkable efficiency in removing up to 100 % of TSS and 96 % of turbidity. Additionally, an evaluation was conducted on the elimination of heavy metals, including Zinc (Zn), Lead (Pb), Chromium (Cr), and Iron (Fe). The efficacy of removing these HMs was found to exceed 85 %. All these favorable outcomes contribute to the improvement of effluent quality, mitigation of contamination hazards, and fouling reduction.

Abstract
Three extremophile bacterial strains (BBCOL-009, BBCOL-014 and BBCOL-015), capable of degrading high concentrations of perchlorate at a range of pH (6.5 to 10.0), were isolated from Colombian Caribbean Coast sediments. Morphological features included Gram negative strain bacilli with sizes averaged of 1.75 × 0.95, 2.32 × 0.65 and 3.08 × 0.70 μm, respectively. The reported strains tolerate a wide range of pH (6.5 to 10.0); concentrations of NaCl (3.5 to 7.5% w/v) and KClO4- (250 to 10000 mg/L), reduction of KClO4- from 10 to 25%. LB broth with NaCl (3.5-30% w/v) and KClO4- (250-10000 mg/L) were used in independent trials to evaluate susceptibility to salinity and perchlorate, respectively. Isolates increased their biomass at 7.5 % (w/v) NaCl with optimal development at 3.5 % NaCl. Subsequently, ClO4- reduction was assessed using LB medium with 3.5% NaCl and 10000 mg/L ClO4-. BBCOL-009, BBCOL-014 and BBCOL-015 achieved 10%, 17%, and 25% reduction of ClO4-, respectively. The 16 S rRNA gene sequence grouped them as Bacillus flexus T6186-2, Bacillus marisflavi TF-11 (T), and Bacillus vietnamensis 15 - 1 (T) respectively, with < 97.5% homology. In addition, antimicrobial resistance to ertapenem, vancomycine, amoxicillin clavulanate, penicillin, and erythromycin was present in all the isolates, indicating their high adaptability to stressful environments. The isolated strains from marine sediments in Cartagena Bay, Colombia are suitable candidates to reduce perchlorate contamination in different environments. Although the primary focus of the study of perchlorate-reducing and resistant bacteria is in the ecological and agricultural realms, from an astrobiological perspective, perchlorate-resistant bacteria serve as models for astrobiological investigations.

Abstract
In this research, the transformation and toxicity of Reactive Red 141 and 239 biodegraded under anaerobic-aerobic conditions as well as metagenomic analysis of Reactive Red 239 degrading microbial consortia collected from Shala Hot spring were investigated. Toxicity of dyes before treatment and after treatment on three plants, fish and microorganisms were done. A halotolerant and thermo-alkaliphilic bacterial consortia decolorizing azo dyes (>98% RR 141 and > 96% RR 239 in 7 h) under optimum conditions of salt concentration (0.5%), temperature (55 °C) and pH (9), were used. Toxicity effect of untreated dyes and treated dyes in Tomato > Beetroot > Cabbage plants, while the effect was Leuconostoc mesenteroides > Lactobacillus plantarum > Escherichia coli in microorganisms. Among fishes, the toxicity effect was highest in Oreochromis niloticus followed by Cyprinus carpio and Clarias gariepinus. The three most dominant phyla that could be in charge of decolorizing RR 239 under anaerobic-aerobic systems were Bacteroidota (22.6-29.0%), Proteobacteria (13.5-29.0%), and Chloroflexi (8.8-23.5%). At class level microbial community structure determination, Bacteroidia (18.9-27.2%), Gammaproteobacteria (11.0-15.8%), Alphaproteobacteria (2.5-5.0%) and Anaerolineae (17.0-21.9%) were dominant classes. The transformation of RR 141 and RR 239 into amine compounds were proposed via high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectroscopy (HPLC/MS) and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). Overall, dye containing wastewaters treated under anaerobic-aerobic systems using thermo-alkaliphilic microbial consortia were found to be safe to agricultural (fishes and vegetables) purposes.

Abstract
The current physicochemical methods for decolorizing toxic synthetic dyes are not sustainable to halt the environmental damage as they are expensive and often produce concentrated sludge, which may lead to secondary disposal problems. Biocatalysis (microbes and/or their enzymes) is a cost-effective, versatile, energy-saving and clean alternative. The most common enzymes involved in dye degradation are laccases, azoreductases and peroxidases. Toxic dyes could be converted into less harmful byproducts through the combined action of many enzymes or the utilization of whole cells. The action of whole cells to treat dye effluents is either by biosorption or degradation (aerobic or anaerobic). Using immobilized cells or enzymes will offer advantages such as superior stability, persistence against harsh environmental conditions, reusability and longer half-lives. This review envisages the recent strategies of immobilization and bioreactor considerations with the immobilized system as the effective treatment of textile dye effluents. Packed bed reactors are the most popular heterogeneous biocatalytic reactors for dye decolorization due to their efficiency and cost-effectiveness.

Abstract
Biological treatment methods overcome many of the drawbacks of physicochemical strategies and play a significant role in removing dye contamination for environmental sustainability. Numerous microorganisms have been investigated as promising dye-degrading candidates because of their high metabolic potential. However, few can be applied on a large scale because of the extremely harsh conditions in effluents polluted with multiple dyes, such as alkaline pH, high salinity/heavy metals/dye concentration, high temperature, and oxidative stress. Therefore, extremophilic microorganisms offer enormous opportunities for practical biodegradation processes as they are naturally adapted to multi-stress conditions due to the special structure of their cell wall, capsule, S-layer proteins, extracellular polymer substances (EPS), and siderophores structural and functional properties such as poly-enzymes produced. This review provides scientific information for a broader understanding of general dyes, their toxicity, and their harmful effects. The advantages and disadvantages of physicochemical methods are also highlighted and compared to those of microbial strategies. New techniques and methodologies used in recent studies are briefly summarized and discussed. In particular, this study addresses the key adaptation mechanisms, whole-cell, enzymatic degradation, and non-enzymatic pathways in aerobic, anaerobic, and combination conditions of extremophiles in dye degradation and decolorization. Furthermore, they have special metabolic pathways and protein frameworks that contribute significantly to the complete mineralization and decolorization of the dye when all functions are turned on. The high potential efficiency of microbial degradation by unculturable and multi-enzyme-producing extremophiles remains a question that needs to be answered in practical research.

Abstract
Peroxidase (POX) is a heme-containing oxidoreductase, its voluminous immuno-diagnostic and bioremediatory intuitions have incited optimization and large scale-generation from novel microbial repertoires. Azo dyes are the most detrimental classes of synthetic dyes and they are the common ecotoxic industrial pollutants in wastewater. In addition, azo dyes are refractory to degradation owing to their chemical nature, comprising of azoic linkages, amino moieties with recalcitrant traits. Moreover, they are major carcinogenic and mutagenic on humans and animals, whereby emphasizing the need for decolorization. In the present study, a novel POX from Streptomyces coelicolor strain SPR7 was investigated for the deterioration of ecotoxic dyestuffs. The initial medium component screening for POX production was achieved using, One Factor at a Time and Placket-Burman methodologies with starch, casein and temperature as essential parameters. In auxiliary, Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was recruited and followed by model validation using Back propagation algorithm (BPA). RSM-BPA composite approach prophesied that combination of starch, casein, and temperature at optimal values 2.5%, 0.035% and 35 °C respectively, has resulted in 7 folds enhancement of POX outturn (2.52 U/mL) compared to the unoptimized media (0.36 U/mL). The concentrated enzyme decolorized 75.4% and 90% of the two azo dyes with lignin (10 mM), respectively. Hence, this investigation confirms the potentiality of mangrove actinomycete derived POX for elimination of noxious azo dyes to overcome their carcinogenic, mutagenic and teratogenic effects on humans and aquatic organisms.

Evaluating the potential of thermo-alkaliphilic microbial consortia for azo dye biodegradation under anaerobic-aerobic conditions: Optimization and microbial diversity analysis. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2022; 323:116235.

Abstract
Wastewaters in textile industry are mainly characterized by higher pH, color, salt and chemical oxygen demand (COD) values, which are environmentally undesirable. Among these textile effluent characteristics, color removal is the most challenging task. In this study, the potential of Rift Valley halotolerant and thermo-alkaliphilic microbial consortia (collected from Shala hot spring located in Ethiopia) for azo dye biodegradation under anaerobic-aerobic conditions were evaluated. Optimization and microbial diversity analysis were done using Reactive Red 141. Under optimum conditions of pH (9), temperature (55 °C), salinity (0.5%), and nutrients, microbial consortia can remove >98% color and 92.7 ± 7.3% COD under anaerobic and aerobic conditions, respectively. In addition, the consortia was capable of decolorizing initial dye concentrations of 100-1000 mg/L, and various dye types including Everzol Blue LX, RY 84, RR 239, RB 198 and RY 700. The 16S rRNA gene sequence results showed that Bacteroidetes (25.3%) > Proteobacteria (21.0%) > Chloroflexi (18.5%) > Halobacterota (6.2%) dominant phyla. Based on the findings, non-color effluent adapted Rift Valley halotolerant and thermo-alkaliphilic bacterial consortia can be a potential candidate for bioremediation of textile and other industries characterized by higher salinity, temperature and pH.

Abstract
The azo dye orange II is used extensively in the textile sector for coloring fabrics. High concentrations of it are released into aqueous environments through textile effluents. Therefore, its removal from textile wastewater and effluents is necessary. Herein, initially, we tested 11 bacterial strains for their capabilities in the degradation of orange II dye. It was revealed in the preliminary data that B. subtilis can more potently degrade the selected dye, which was thus used in the subsequent experiments. To achieve maximum decolorization, the experimental conditions were optimized whereby maximum degradation was achieved at: a 25 ppm dye concentration, pH 7, a temperature of 35 °C, a 1000 mg/L concentration of glucose, a 1000 mg/L urea concentration, a 666.66 mg/L NaCl concentration, an incubation period of 3 days, and with hydroquinone as a redox mediator at a concentration of 66.66 mg/L. The effects of the interaction of the operational factors were further confirmed using response surface methodology, which revealed that at optimum conditions of pH 6.45, a dye concentration of 17.07 mg/L, and an incubation time of 9.96 h at 45.38 °C, the maximum degradation of orange II can be obtained at a desirability coefficient of 1, estimated using the central composite design (CCD). To understand the underlying principles of degradation of the metabolites in the aliquot mixture at the optimized condition, the study steps were extracted and analyzed using GC-MS(Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry), FTIR(Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy), 1H and carbon 13 NMR(Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy). The GC-MS pattern revealed that the original dye was degraded into o-xylene and naphthalene. Naphthalene was even obtained in a pure state through silica gel column isolation and confirmed using 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopic analysis. Phytotoxicity tests on Vigna radiata were also conducted and the results confirmed that the dye metabolites were less toxic than the parent dye. These results emphasize that B. subtilis should be used as a potential strain for the bioremediation of textile effluents containing orange II and other toxic azo dyes.

Abstract
The scientific data review shows that advanced oxidation processes based on the hydroxyl or sulfate radicals are of great interest among the currently conventional water and wastewater treatment methods. Different advanced treatment processes such as photocatalysis, Fenton's reagent, ozonation, and persulfate-based processes were investigated to degrade contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) such as pesticides, personal care products, pharmaceuticals, disinfectants, dyes, and estrogenic substances. This article presents a general overview of visible light-driven advanced oxidation processes for the removal of chlorfenvinphos (organophosphorus insecticide), methylene blue (azo dye), and diclofenac (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug). The following visible light-driven treatment methods were reviewed: photocatalysis, sulfate radical oxidation, and photoelectrocatalysis. Visible light, among other sources of energy, is a renewable energy source and an excellent substitute for ultraviolet radiation used in advanced oxidation processes. It creates a high application potential for solar-assisted advanced oxidation processes in water and wastewater technology. Despite numerous publications of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), more extensive research is needed to investigate the mechanisms of contaminant degradation in the presence of visible light. Therefore, this paper provides an important source of information on the degradation mechanism of emerging contaminants. An important aspect in the work is the analysis of process parameters affecting the degradation process. The initial concentration of CECs, pH, reaction time, and catalyst dosage are discussed and analyzed. Based on a comprehensive survey of previous studies, opportunities for applications of AOPs are presented, highlighting the need for further efforts to address dominant barriers to knowledge acquisition.

Abstract
Organic nature of dyes and their commercially made products are widely utilized in many industries including paper, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, photography, petroleum as well as in textile manufacturing. The textile industry being the top most consumer of a large variety of dyes during various unit processes operation generates substantial amount of wastewater; hence, nominated as "Major Polluter of Potable Water". The direct discharge of such effluents into environment poses serious threats to the functioning of biotic communities of natural ecosystems. The detection of these synthetic dyes is considered as relatively easy, however, it is extremely difficult to completely eliminate them from wastewater and freshwater ecosystems. Aromatic chemical structure seems to be the main reason behind low biodegradability of these dyes. Currently, various physiochemical and biological methods are employed for their remediation. Among them, microbial degradation has attracted greater attention due to its sustainability, high efficiency, cost effectiveness, and eco-friendly nature. The current review presents recent advances in biodegradation of industrial dyes towards a sustainable and tangible technological innovative solutions as an alternative to existing conventional physicochemical treatment processes.

Abstract
A degumming approach is used in this paper with alkalophilic pectinase-producing bacteria (APPB) and two sources of water solvents to address the existing conventional water retting complexities of kenaf. The incorporation of APPB was confirmed based on their retting feasibilities and multiple cell-wall-degrading enzymatic delicacy. The combinations of APPB with seawater offered retting achievements within six-day retting in non-sterile conditions. These retting niches showed maximum (14.67 U/mL) pectinase activity with fiber separation feasibilities of 4.75 Fried test score. The yielded fiber composition analysis showed a higher cellulose composition (84.65%) and the least amount of hemicellulose, pectin, and ligneous gummy substances. The transmission electron microscopy scan of the yielded fibers showed smooth fiber surfaces, 84.20 µm fiber diameter, and 7.65 g/tex fine fiber compared with uninoculated and combinations of freshwater treatments. The FTIR spectra revealed the cellulosic discrepancies of the retting treatments by monitoring O-H and C=O stretching at ~3300 cm−1 and ~1730 cm−1 wavenumbers. These findings are compelling to yield kenaf fibers of quality considering the existing retting difficulties.

Abstract
The textile industry uses large amounts of dyes like reactive, azo, anthraquinone, and triphenylmethane to colour textiles. Dyes that are not used up during the colouration process usually end up in water bodies as waste leading to the pollution of the water bodies. This makes the industry to be one of the major contributors to water pollution in the world. Bacterial agents isolated from various sources like dye contaminated soil and textile wastewater have shown to have the ability to effectively decolourise and degrade these dye pollutants leading to improved water quality. This review discusses bacterial isolates that have been used successfully to degrade and decolourise textile dyes, their mode of dye removal as well as the factors that affect their dye degradation ability. It further looks at the latest wastewater treatment technologies that incorporate bacterial microorganisms to treat dye wastewater. Bacterial isolates offer environmentally friendly solution to dye degradation. Pure and mixed bacterial cultures can remove textile dyes in optimised conditions. Dyes are removed through biosorption or biodegradation mechanisms. Latest technologies provide more effective dye removal options.

Abstract
The emission of methylene blue (MB) from common industries causes risks to human health by making clean drinking water unavailable and hampering environmental safety. A biological approach offering a more cost-efficient and sustainable alternative solution has been studied and demonstrated to be significantly effective for the removal of MB using promising microbial isolates. Therefore, this study targeted bacterial candidates, namely Bacillus sp. React3, isolated from soil with the potential to decolorize MB. The phenogenic identification of strain React3 was performed by 16S rRNA sequencing, showing a similarity of 98.86% to Bacillus velezensis CR-502T. The ability of this bacterial strain to decolorize MB was proven through both the lignin peroxidase efficiency and accumulation in the biomass of the living cells. MB removal was determined by the reduction in the maximum absorption at a wavelength of 665 nm, which was observed to be up to 99.5% after 48 h of incubation. The optimal conditions for the MB degradation of strain React3 were pH 7, 35 °C, static, 4% inoculum, and 1000 mg/L of MB, with tryptone as a carbon source and yeast extract as a nitrogen source.

Abstract
The use of dyes dates to ancient times and has increased due to population and industrial growth, leading to the rise of synthetic dyes. These pollutants are of great environmental impact and azo dyes deserve special attention due their widespread use and challenging degradation. Among the biological solutions developed to mitigate this issue, bacteria are highlighted for being versatile organisms, which can be applied as single organism cultures, microbial consortia, in bioreactors, acting in the detoxification of azo dyes breakage by-products and have the potential to combine biodegradation with the production of products of economic interest. These characteristics go hand in hand with the ability of various strains to act under various chemical and physical parameters, such as a wide range of pH, salinity, and temperature, with good performance under industry, and environmental, relevant conditions. This review encompasses studies with promising results related to the use of bacteria in the bioremediation of environments contaminated with azo dyes in the most diverse techniques and parameters, both in environmental and laboratory samples, also addressing their mechanisms and the legislation involving these dyes around the world, showcasing the importance of bacterial bioremediation, specialty in a scenario in an ever-increasing pursuit for sustainable production.

Adsorption Characteristics and Molecular Simulation of Malachite Green onto Modified Distillers’ Grains. WATER 2022.

Abstract
Adsorbent material was prepared using distillers’ grains (DG), which is a waste product of distilleries. The DG was pre-treated with NaOH and esterification-modified with CS2, which is a commonly used anionic modifier. The structure and morphology of the adsorbent was characterized by FTIR, XRD, EDS, SEM, BET, and zeta potential. The related mechanism of adsorption of malachite green (MG) onto modified distiller’s grains (MDG) was studied by adsorption experiments and molecular simulation techniques. The experimental results showed that CS2 successfully modified the DG fiber, and simultaneously yielded the MDG with a uniform pore distribution. MDG had a considerable adsorption capacity of 367.39 mg/g and a maximum removal rate of 96.51%. After eight adsorption–desorption cycle experiments, the adsorption removal rate of MDG to MG dye remained at 82.6%. The adsorption process could be fitted well by a pseudo-second-order kinetic model (the correlation coefficient R2 > 0.998) and Freundlich isotherm adsorption equation (the correlation coefficient R2 > 0.972). Moreover, the adsorption of MG dye by MDG is a spontaneous, endothermic, and increased entropy process. The results of molecular simulation showed that the mechanism of MG molecules onto MDG was mainly chemical adsorption. The adsorption performance of MG onto MDG was better and more stable than DG. Molecular simulation also provided a theoretical guidance of MDG adsorption–desorption for the research on recycling of DG resources.

Abstract
Amaranth dye (AD) is trisodium (4E)-3-oxo-4-[(4-sulfonato-1- naphthyl) hydrazono] naphthalene-2, 7-disulfonate and anionic in nature. In the present investigation, waste biomasses such as Terminalia chebula shell (TCS), Peltophorum pterocarpum leaf (PPL) and Psidium guajava bark (PGB) are explored as biosorbents for the first time toward the removal of AD from aqueous solution in a batch method. Influence of biosorption parameters such as pH, initial concentration of AD, biosorbents (TCS, PPL, PGB) dosage, temperature and contact time was studied. Biosorption equilibrium data was analyzed using two parameter isotherms. The kinetics of the biosorption process was analyzed using different models to understand the rate-determining step. The results of the biosorption experiment and modeling investigation illustrated that the pseudo-second-order rate equation fits the experimental data and further the experimental results showed Langmuir isotherm fitted well the biosorption equilibrium data. TCS showed more efficiency toward the removal of AD than PPL and PGB. The value of enthalpy for TCS is 1.527 kJ/mol suggests that the AD removal process is endothermic. The positive value of entropy is 6.429 J/mol K indicates that the particle is randomly disordered and negative values of standard Gibbs free energy (ΔG°) suggested that the biosorption process is spontaneous.Novelty statementBiomasses of Terminalia chebula shell (TCS), Peltophorum pterocarpum leaf (PPL) and Psidium guajava bark (PGB) reported as first time explored biosorbent for amaranth dye (AD) removal from aqueous solution.Optimal biosorption parameter for AD removal determined.Experimental data examined using isotherm, kinetic and thermodynamic analysis.

Abstract
In the present study, Chryseobacterium geocarposphaerae DD3 isolated from textile industry dye effluent in West Bengal, India, displayed significant tolerance to sulfonated di-azo dye Congo red (CR), up to 500 ppm. The optimum decolourisation revealed that C. geocarposphaerae DD3 was capable of 96.52% decolourisation of 0.2 g L−1 CR within 12 h of treatment in the presence of 5 g L−1 glucose as supplementary carbon source. Biodegradation analysis of decolourised CR containing water was investigated by FTIR, MS and 1H NMR, which confirmed the absence of azo bond as well as the toxic aromatic amines. Further, phytotoxicity analysis was performed to assess the toxicity of CR before and after bacterial treatment. Growth indexes of Vigna radiata L. seed confirmed that the biodegraded water was non-phytotoxic in comparison to the control CR solution. Multivariate analyses confirmed the same, showing significant differences between measured plant health indicators for CR solutions, whereas no significant differences were found between distilled and treated water. This study is novel as it is the first report of dye degradation by C. geocarposphaerae and may lead to a sustainable way of treating dye-contaminated water in the near future.

Abstract
The application of microorganisms in azo dye remediation has gained significant attention, leading to various published studies reporting different methods for obtaining the best dye decolouriser. This paper investigates and compares the role of methods and media used in obtaining a bacterial consortium capable of decolourising azo dye as the sole carbon source, which is extremely rare to find. It was demonstrated that a prolonged acclimation under low substrate availability successfully isolated a novel consortium capable of utilising Reactive Red 120 dye as a sole carbon source in aerobic conditions. This consortium, known as JR3, consists of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain MM01, Enterobacter sp. strain MM05 and Serratia marcescens strain MM06. Decolourised metabolites of consortium JR3 showed an improvement in mung bean's seed germination and shoot and root length. One-factor-at-time optimisation characterisation showed maximal of 82.9% decolourisation at 0.7 g/L ammonium sulphate, pH 8, 35 °C, and RR120 concentrations of 200 ppm. Decolourisation modelling utilising response surface methodology (RSM) successfully improved decolourisation even more. RSM resulted in maximal decolourisation of 92.79% using 0.645 g/L ammonium sulphate, pH 8.29, 34.5 °C and 200 ppm RR120.

Abstract
Saline-alkali soil has become an important environmental problem for crop productivity. One of the most effective approaches is to cultivate new stress-tolerant plants through genetic engineering. Through RNA-seq analysis and RT-PCR validation, a novel bZIP transcription factor ChbZIP1, which is significantly upregulated at alkali conditions, was obtained from alkaliphilic microalgae Chlorella sp. BLD. Overexpression of ChbZIP1 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Arabidopsis increased their alkali resistance, indicating ChbZIP1 may play important roles in alkali stress response. Through subcellular localization and transcriptional activation activity analyses, we found that ChbZIP1 is a nuclear-localized bZIP TF with transactivation activity to bind with the motif of G-box 2 (TGACGT). Functional analysis found that genes such as GPX1, DOX1, CAT2, and EMB, which contained G-box 2 and were associated with oxidative stress, were significantly upregulated in Arabidopsis with ChbZIP1 overexpression. The antioxidant ability was also enhanced in transgenic Arabidopsis. These results indicate that ChbZIP1 might mediate plant adaptation to alkali stress through the active oxygen detoxification pathway. Thus, ChbZIP1 may contribute to genetically improving plants’ tolerance to alkali stress.

Abstract
A novel macro-architectures material Fe3O4-N-GO@sodium alginate (SA) gel film was successfully produced, which was used to remove series azo dye wastewater. The optimal adsorption rates were attained, which achieved the maximum removal efficiency of 74.22%, 45.72%, 37.75% for Congo Red, Acid Orange 7 and Amino Black 10B respectively, under the condition that the mass ratio of Fe3O4-N-GO to sodium alginate was 0.11. The optimal adsorption temperature for three dyes was 30 ℃ and the adsorption equilibrium was reached at 150 min. The adsorption kinetic model of Fe3O4-N-GO@SA for the three azo dyes conformed to the quasi-second-order reaction model, and the adsorption isotherm was more in line with the Freundlich adsorption. The adsorption mechanism was multi-layer heterogeneous adsorption under the combined action of physical adsorption and chemisorption, and chemisorption was the main step of controlling the speed. The study would provide theoretical basis for the application of macro-architectures material in environment.

Abstract
Alkaline environments are abundant globally and cause damage to most organisms, while some microalgae can grow well and accumulate lipids under those conditions. Here the mechanisms of alkali resistance and lipid accumulation in the alkaliphilic microalgae Chlorella sp. BLD were explored using physiological-biochemical and transcriptome analysis. When cultivated at alkaline pH, Chlorella sp. BLD exhibited good alkali-resistance ability and increased biomass (0.97 g L-1). The biochemical composition of Chlorella sp. BLD changed significantly (lipid content increased 39% and protein content decreased 19.5%) compared with pH 7.5. Through transcriptome analysis, we found that pathways related to carbon metabolism such as photosynthesis, glycolysis, and the TCA cycle were significantly regulated under alkaline conditions. Genes that encoding the key enzyme in carbon-related metabolism such as Rubisco, AMY, PK, ME, CS, ACAT, KAS, and DGAT were identified. Transcriptional regulation of these genes results in carbon flow switching from starch and protein to cell wall metabolism, organic acid synthetic and lipid accumulation in response to alkaline conditions. These results reveal the alkali resistance mechanism of Chlorella sp. BLD and provide a theoretical basis for microalgae oil production under alkaline conditions.

Abstract
Rapid industrialization has provided comforts to mankind but has also impacted the environment harmfully. There has been severe increase in the pollution due to several industries, in particular due to dye industry, which generate huge quantities of wastewater containing hazardous chemicals. Although tremendous developments have taken place for the treatment and management of such wastewater through chemical or biological processes, there is an emerging shift in the approach, with focus shifting on resource recovery from such wastewater and also their management in sustainable manner. This review article aims to present and discuss the most advanced and state-of-art technical and scientific developments about the treatment of dye industry wastewater, which include advanced oxidation process, membrane filtration technique, microbial technologies, bio-electrochemical degradation, photocatalytic degradation, etc. Among these technologies, microbial degradation seems highly promising for resource recovery and sustainability and has been discussed in detail as a promising approach. This paper also covers the challenges and future perspectives in this field.

Abstract
The aim of the present study is focused on the decolorization and degradation of azo dyes Ponceau S Red and Methyl Orange by a bacterial strain isolated from the gold mining district of San Martin de Loba, South of Bolivar (Colombia) sediment samples and identified as Franconibacter sp. 1MS (GenBank: MT568543) based on phenotypic and genotypic methods. A higher percentage of decolorization at 100 mg/L concentration, 37 °C, and pH 7 was recorded at 120 h of incubation period for both dyes. The UV-vis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis of the original dyes and their degraded metabolites confirmed that the decolorization was due to degradation. The proposed metabolic pathways for biodegradation of both dyes have been elucidated, which showed the formation of five intermediate metabolites, namely, N,N-dimethylbenzyl-1,4-diamine, sulfonamide, 1,4-diaminobenzene, 2,5-diaminobenzenesulfonic acid, and 1-amino-2-naphthol, which are not only highly toxic but also be able to be converted through metabolic activation into mutagenic, carcinogenic, and/or teratogenic species. The phytotoxicity studies of the original dye and degraded metabolites were tested on Phaseolus vulgaris and divulged that the degraded metabolites have toxic effects. An effective phytostimulation was observed in Ponceau S Red, which could be attributed to its capacity for enrichment of the culture medium with essential nutrients, a favorable environment for the growth of the plant.

Abstract
Increased temperature, salinity and alkalinity restrict the biodecolorization rate of textile wastewater. In the present study, the halophilic alkalithermophilic bacterial consortium ZSY, which can decolorize azo dyes under 10% salinity, pH 10 and 50 °C, was enriched. It can decolorize Metanil Yellow G (MYG) under a wide range of pH values (8-10), temperatures (40-50 °C), dye concentrations (100-400 mg/L) and salinity levels (1%-10%). Laccase (Lac), lignin peroxidase (Lip), nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dichlorophenol indophenol reductase (NADH-DCIP) and azoreductase are involved in the decolorization process. A decolorization pathway of MYG was proposed via gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The toxicity of MYG decreased after decolorization by ZSY consortium. A metagenomic sequencing approach was subsequently applied to identify the functional genes involved in decolorization. Overall, this halophilic alkalithermophilic bacterial consortium could be a promising candidate for the treatment of textile wastewater in environments with increased temperature, salinity and alkalinity.

Abstract
Azo dyes are extensively used in different industries areas, such as Allura Red (R-40). Previous studies have proven its carcinogenic and mutagenic properties. For the removal of this type of emerging pollutant from effluents, tertiary treatment techniques such as activated charcoal are used. Alternatively, the use of bacteria is preferred because of its quick discoloration processes. The aim of the present investigation is to compare the efficiency removal of R-40 from aqueous media by a physicochemical process and a biological one. The sorption kinetics of 10 ppm of R-40 was carried out with the use of activated charcoal based on walnut shells in water. Moreover, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus subtilis stains were used separately to decolorize nutrient broth media supplemented with 50 ppm of R-40. The activated carbon was capable to remove 99.87% of R-40 at 264 h, while the bacterial strains decolorized 92.13% (P. aeruginosa) and 88.21% (B. subtilis), respectively, under microaerophilic conditions after 168 h. Therefore, both process strategies, physicochemical and biological rapprochements, were able to remove the dye from aqueous media. R-40 was not cytotoxic to used strains, besides gram-positive either negative bacteria could be applied to turn over this azo dye in short term. Combination of both approaches may be implemented in tandem architecture.

Abstract
In Pakistan, 55% of textile exports are contributed by textile-units of Faisalabad. The effluents of these textile units, being discharged without any treatment, contain the contamination of a huge amount of synthetic azo dyes. The objective of the current research was to evaluate the contribution of an azoreductase-encoding gene (azrS) from a pre-characterized azo dye decolorizing bacterial strain Bacillus sp. MR-1/2 in a high copy number host system (pUC19-T7-Top-T) of Escherichia coli strain DH5α followed by in-silico prediction of azoreductase enzyme (AzrS) function. The recombinant cells that contained azrS had a significantly higher rate of color removal in congo red and reactive black-5 dyes when compared to wild-type MR-1/2 and E. coli DH5α after 72 h of incubation. Moreover, we were able to show that the recombinant strain significantly reduced the values of all tested parameters (pH, EC, turbidity, TSS, and COD) in actual wastewater. In support of our results, it was also predicted through bioinformatics analysis that the deduced azoreductase protein of strain MR-1/2 is linked with the dye decolorization ability of the strain through NAD(P)H-ubiquinone: oxidoreductase activity. Furthermore, we also found that the deduced protein resembled closely related proteins of protein databank in many features, yet some unique features were predicted in the enzyme activity of strain MR-1/2. It was concluded that the recombinant strain could be examined in pilot-scale experiments for textile wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Azo dyes are recalcitrant compounds used as a colorant in various industries. The pollution caused by their extensive usage has adversely affected the environment for years. The existing physicochemical methods for dye pollution remediation are rather inefficient and hence there is a dearth of low-cost, potential systems capable of dye degradation. The current research studies the biodegradation potential of immobilized bacterial cells against azo dyes Reactive Orange 16 (RO-16) and Reactive Blue 250 (RB-250). Two indigenous dye degrading bacteria Bacillus sp. VITAKB20 and Lysinibacillus sp. KPB6 was isolated from textile sludge sample. Free cells of Bacillus. sp. VITAKB20 degraded 92.38% of RO-16 and that of Lysinibacillus sp. KPB6 degraded 95.36% of RB-250 within 72 h under static conditions. Upon immobilization with calcium alginate, dye degradation occurred rapidly. Bacillus. sp. VITAKB20 degraded 97.5% of RO-16 and Lysinibacillus sp. KPB6 degraded 98.2% of RB-250 within 48 h under shaking conditions. Further, the nature of dye decolorization was biodegradation as evident by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) results. Phytotoxicity and biotoxicity assays revealed that the degraded dye products were less toxic in nature than the pure dyes. Thus, immobilization proved to be a highly likely alternative treatment for dye removal.

Abstract
The gut microbiota enriches the human gene pool and contributes to xenobiotic metabolism. Microbial azoreductases modulate the reduction of azo-bonds, activating produgs and azo polymer-coated dosage forms, or degrading food additives. Here, we aimed to screen the healthy human gut microbiota for food colorant-reducing activity and to characterize factors modulating it. Four representative isolates from screened fecal samples were identified as E. coli (AZO-Ec), E. faecalis (AZO-Ef), E. avium (AZO-Ev) and B. cereus (AZO-Bc). Both AZO-Ef and AZO-Ev decolorized amaranth aerobically and microaerophilically while AZO-Ec and AZO-Bc had higher aerobic reduction rates. The isolates varied in their activities against different dyes, and the azo-reduction activity mostly followed zero-order reaction kinetics, with a few exceptions. Additionally, the isolates had different pH dependence, e.g., AZO-Ec was not affected by pH variation while AZO-Bc exhibited variable degradation kinetics at different pH levels. Cell-free extracts showed NADH-dependent enzymatic activities 14–19 times higher than extracellular fractions. FMN did not affect the reducing activity of AZO-Ef cell-free extract, whereas AZO-Ec, AZO-Ev and AZO-Bc had significantly higher reduction rates in its presence (P values = 0.02, 0.0001 and 0.02, respectively). Using Degenerate primers allowed the amplification of azoreductase genes, whose sequences were 98–99% similar to genes encoding FMN-dependent-NADH azoreductases.

Abstract
Considering the saline-alkaline nature of textile wastewater and treatment requirements, microbial samples were collected from Ethiopian Rift Valley Soda Lakes. A large number of bacteria (121) were isolated from dye-uncontaminated Lakes Chitu (81.0%), Abijata (15.7%) and Arenguadie (3.3%), of which 95 isolates (78.5%) were found dye decolorizer. Many dye decolorizer from Lake Chitu positively correlated with higher pH (10.3 ± 0.1), salinity (64.6 ± 2.0%), conductivity (6.1 ± 0.3 mS cm-1) and Na+ (18.4 ± 0.6 g L-1) values observed than Abijata and Arenguadie Lakes. Through subsequent screening mechanism, strain A55 was selected to investigate the effect of nutrient (carbon and nitrogen), dissolved oxygen and dye concentration using Reactive Red 184 (RR 184). Based on morphological, biochemical and 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, the strain was identified as Halomonas sp. Decolorization efficiencies were significantly enhanced with carbon (≥98%) and organic nitrogen (∼100%) than non-carbon/nitrogen (both<55%) supplements. Complete decolorization efficiencies were also observed under anoxic and anaerobic growth conditions. However, growing the isolate with nitrate (<30%) and aerobic (<10%) condition significantly decreased (p < 0.05) color removal efficiency. Kinetic analysis showed that pseudo-first-order best describes RR 184 decolorization process. Overall, the ability of Halomonas sp. strain A55 decolorized different dyes indicate that alkaline soda lake isolates are the potential candidate for treating color containing effluent.

Abstract
High color concentrations in inflows at reclaimed water treatment plants are typically considered as emergency situations, which must be solved using an appropriate decolorizing process. Using the decoloration mechanism of a modified dicyandiamide-formaldehyde polymer (DFP), a urea-formaldehyde polymer and a melamine-formaldehyde polymer (MFP) were prepared with ammonium chloride and ammonium sulfate as the modifiers. An orthogonal experiment indicated that a modified urea-formaldehyde polymer had no effect on decolorization; however, the MFP modified by ammonium chloride in number 16 (MMFP-C16), the DFP modified by ammonium chloride in number 9 (MDFP-C9) and modified by ammonium sulfate in number 6 (MDFP-S6) were successful. The removal rates were above 50% in acidic and reactive dye reclaimed water. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy was used to microscopically analyze the differences in decolorization effect among the polymers. The effect of pH on decolorization was analyzed. Compared to the MDFP-C9 and MDFP-S6, the MMFP-C16 was not sensitive to changes in conditions. The pilot plant test proved that the three optimal decolorizers also had a good decolorizing effect, and MMFP-C16 was better both at decolorizing and floc sedimentation. Thus, the latter can be considered as an efficient modified decolorizer for rapid treatment of high color reclaimed water.

Abstract
In the quest for developing novel narrow band gap semiconductor materials, the research in metal chalcogenides has gained a strong attraction. In the present investigation, a surfactant-free hydrothermal route has been followed to design hierarchical self-assembled flower-like ZnIn2S4 structures through control over precursor concentration and hydrothermal processing parameters. Uniform hexagonal marigold flower-like ZnIn2S4 architectures (∼4 μm) were formed with self-assembly of petals (thickness ∼8-12 nm) forming rose-like structures and finally forming marigold flowers in 24 h duration. The hierarchical ZnIn2S4 flower structure has been used as photocatalysts for the degradation of dye and chlorinated phenols. Photodegradation demonstrates that the high surface area from the porous flower architecture (∼72 m2/g) with an enhanced visible light absorption giving low band gap energy (2.15 eV) is responsible for higher photocatalytic performance. Complete degradation of the organic pollutants has been observed within 90 min in the presence of natural sunlight. To understand the participating reactive species contributing to degradation, scavenger studies were performed for deducing the plausible photocatalytic degradation pathways. This study might open new insights into the design of novel hierarchical structures.
