Abstract
Antibiotic contamination poses potential risks to ecosystems and human health. Laccase (LAC) has emerged as a promising biocatalyst for the oxidation of environmentally toxic contaminants with high catalytic efficiency; however, its large-scale application is hindered by enzyme costs and dependency on redox mediators. Herein, a novel self-amplifying catalytic system (SACS) for antibiotic remediation that does not require external mediators is developed. In SACS, a natural mediator-regenerating koji with high-activity LAC, derived from lignocellulosic waste, initiates the chlortetracycline (CTC) degradation. Subsequently, an intermediate product, CTC327, identified as an active mediator for LAC via molecular docking, is formed and then starts a renewable reaction cycle, including CTC327-LAC interaction, stimulated CTC bioconversion, and self-amplifying CTC327 release, thus enabling highly efficient antibiotic bioremediation. In addition, SACS exhibits excellent performance in producing lignocellulose-degrading enzymes, highlighting its potential for lignocellulosic biomass deconstruction. To demonstrate its effectiveness and accessibility in the natural environment, SACS is used to catalyze in situ soil bioremediation and straw degradation. The resulting CTC degradation rate is 93.43%, with a straw mass loss of up to 58.35% in a coupled process. This mediator regeneration and waste-to-resource conversion in SACS provides a promising route for environmental remediation and sustainable agricultural practices.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 216:114671. [PMID: 36341793 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2022.114671] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2022] [Revised: 09/06/2022] [Accepted: 10/24/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
The unavailability of clean water caused by population growth, increased industrial activities, and global climate change is a major challenge in many communities. A number of desalination technologies including distillation, reverse osmosis and electrodialysis, have been used to supplement the available water resources. However, these technologies are energy intensive and demand a significant financial commitment. Capacitive deionization (CDI) is an emerging desalination technology which is promising to provide water at a reasonable cost, especially in societies with limited incomes such as those in Africa. The opportunities for CDI to provide clean water to the African population are discussed in this paper. These opportunities include electrosorption at low potential, low energy consumption, large quantities of agricultural wastes for the production of electrode materials, high sunshine irradiation throughout the year, suitability for disinfection and defluoridation and its applications in the removal of heavy metals and emerging pollutants. Due to the existence of numerous enabling conditions, the analysis from this paper demonstrates that CDI can be a dependable method to provide clean water in Africa.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2022; 830:154647.

Abstract
Antibiotics in the environment could undergo various processes with formation of transformation products, but little has been known about their occurrence and (eco)toxicological consequences. Here we investigated the occurrence and fate of nine transformation products of four tetracyclines (tetracycline, oxytetracycline, chlortetracycline and doxycycline) in three municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) in Guangzhou, China. The results showed the detection of all the tetracyclines and their transformation products in the WWTPs, with mean concentrations ranging from 17.8 ng/L (anhydrotetracycline) to 49.1 ng/L (oxytetracycline) in influent, 3.03 ng/L (tetracycline) to 6.94 ng/L (4-epi-chlortetracycline) in effluent, and 19.8 ng/g (isochlortetracycline) to 503 ng/g (4-epi-tertracycline) in sludge, respectively. The transformation products of tetracycline, oxytetracycline, chlortetracycline and doxycycline accounted for 73%-83%, 26%-52%, 70%-73% and 69%-74% of total concentrations, respectively. The aqueous removal rates of tetracyclines and their transformation products in the three WWTPs ranged from 18.4% (demethyl-chlortetracycline) to 93.7% (oxytetracycline). Mass balance analysis based on both aqueous and solid phase showed that their removals were mainly attributed to the sludge adsorption. Residual tetracyclines and their transformation products in the effluents would pose no obvious ecological risks to three aquatic organisms (green algae, daphnia and fish). However, 43.5% of sludge samples had high risks from these tetracyclines and transformation products, especially the compounds with poor biodegradability. The results from this study suggest that transformation products should be included in future environmental monitoring and control.

Abstract
The individual and combined effects of tetracycline (TC) and divalent copper (Cu2+) on the performance of activated sludge systems and the abundances of tetracycline resistance genes (TRGs) in activated sludge, under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions, were studied. Activated sludge systems received TC (0.2 mg L-1) and Cu2+ (5 mg L-1) separately or jointly under either aerobic or anaerobic conditions. The addition of TC did not affect the performance of activated sludge systems and the addition of Cu2+ and mixed TC/Cu2+ inhibited biological phosphorus removal. The TC removal efficiencies in systems under aerobic and anaerobic conditions were 98.4%-99.7% and 96.8%-99.9%, respectively, and Cu2+ promoted TC removal in activated sludge systems. The TC degradation product was 4-epitetracycline (ETC) in activated sludge systems under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. The total relative abundances of TRGs (tetA, tetC, tetE, tetM, tetO, tetW, tetX and tetB(P)) in activated sludge showed opposite development trends under the two oxygen conditions and aerobic condition was beneficial to the attenuation of high-risk TRGs. The results of this study might improve evaluation of the combined effects of antibiotics and heavy metals on wastewater biological treatment systems.

Abstract
Antibiotic residues and antibiotic resistance have been widely reported in aquatic environments. Hydrolysis of antibiotics is one of the important environmental processes. Here we investigated the hydrolytic transformation of four tetracycline antibiotics i.e. tetracycline (TC), chlortetracycline (CTC), oxytetracycline (OTC) and doxycycline (DC) under different environmental conditions, and determined their parents and transformation products in the wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). The results showed that the hydrolysis of the four tetracyclines followed first-order reaction kinetics, and the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis rates were significantly lower than the base-catalyzed and neutral pH hydrolysis rates. The effect of temperature on tetracycline hydrolysis was quantified by Arrhenius equation, with Ea values ranged from 42.0 kJ mol-1 to 77.0 kJ mol-1 at pH 7.0. In total, nine, six, eight and nine transformation products at three different pH conditions were identified for TC, CTC, OTC and DC, respectively. The main hydrolysis pathways involved the epimerization/isomerization, and dehydration. According to the mass balance analysis, 4-epi-tetracycline and iso-chlortetracycline were the main hydrolytic products for TC and CTC, respectively. The 2 tetracyclines and 4 hydrolysis products were found in the sludge samples in two WWTPs, with concentrations from 15.8 ng/g to 1418 ng/g. Preliminary toxicity evaluation for the tetracyclines and their hydrolysis products showed that some hydrolysis products had higher predicted toxicity than their parent compounds. These results suggest that the hydrolysis products of tetracycline antibiotics should also be included in environmental monitoring and risk assessment.

Abstract
This study explored the change of tetracycline degradation efficiency, metabolic pathway, soil physiochemical properties and degraders in vermiremediation by two earthworm species of epigeic Eisenia fetida and endogeic Amynthas robustus. We found a significant acceleration of tetracycline degradation in both earthworm treatments, and 4-epitetracycline dehydration pathway was remarkably enhanced only by vermiremediation. Tetracycline degraders from soils, earthworm intestines and casts were different. Ralstonia and Sphingomonas were potential tetracycline degraders in soils and metabolized tetracycline through direct dehydration pathway. Degraders in earthworm casts (Comamonas, Acinetobacter and Stenotrophomonas) and intestines (Pseudomonas and Arthrobacter) dehydrated 4-epitetracycline into 4-epianhydrotetracycline. More bacterial lineages resisting tetracycline were found in earthworm treatments, indicating the adaptation of soil and intestinal flora under tetracycline pressure. Earthworm amendment primarily enhanced tetracycline degradation by neutralizing soil pH and consuming organic matters, stimulating both direct dehydration and epimerization-dehydration pathways. Our findings proved that vermicomposting with earthworms is effective to alter soil microenvironment and accelerate tetracycline degradation, behaving as a potential approach in soil remediation at tetracycline contaminated sites.

Abstract
Tetracycline residues have frequently been detected in multi-environmental media, and it could induce antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in microorganisms, which has attracted great attention. Where biodegradation processes may be a promising strategy to remove tetracycline. Thus, this study mainly considers: (i) the degradation of tetracycline by microorganisms including single microorganisms and microbial flora; (ii) the elimination of tetracycline during biochemical treatment processes and advanced treatment systems in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) and constructed wetlands (CWs); (iii) the degradation of tetracycline by biological coupling processes; (iv) the confusion and problem of tetracycline biodegradation. Furthermore, the characteristics and comparison of tetracycline biodegradation have been discussed in detail. Additionally, future research directions are suggested to reduce tetracycline in the aquatic environment, especially tetracycline biodegradation and the nitrogen conversion process. Highlights Degradation of tetracycline by pure culture strains and microflora was significant. Degradation of tetracycline by biochemical treatment process was summarized. Advanced treatment process in CWs could eliminate tetracycline. Future research directions on biodegradation of tetracycline are proposed.

Abstract
Tetracyclines accumulation in soil environment potentially threatens agroecosystem safety. Interestingly, biochar could clean up organic pollutants, but to what extent biochar affects the removal of tetracyclines is unknown. To investigate it, five types of biochars derived from cow manure (CMB) and other four plant materials were respectively added into soils contaminated with a mixture of tetracycline, oxytetracycline, and chlortetracycline for 60-day incubation in the dark. Three parent tetracyclines and their corresponding intermediates (epitetracycline, anhydrotetracycline, epianhydrotetracycline, epioxytetracycline, epichlortetracycline, and demethylchlortetracycline) were respectively determined and named as TTCs, OTCs and CTCs. Obtained results showed biochar especially CMB could effectively remove the antibiotics (P < 0.05). Compared to control, the removal rate of TTCs, OTCs and CTCs respectively increased by up to 10.86%, 10.29% and 10.12% in CMB-added soil. The increased removal rate of the antibiotics after biochar addition was due to the increasing accessibilities for degrading microorganisms via the elevating electrical conductivity. Moreover, biochar addition might stimulate these microbial activities through the increase of C and N supplement. Our results indicate biochar accelerates the removal of tetracyclines and their intermediates by altering soil properties and thus increasing the antibiotics accessibilities, which provide insights into how biochar accelerates the removal for these antibiotics.

Abstract
Residue of veterinary antibiotics (VAs) in the animal breeding industry has become a problematic environmental issue. However, the residual levels of VAs as well as their variation tendency, degradation mechanisms and relationships with other parameters during animal wastewater disposal processes are still obscure. This study measured different samples during wastewater disposal processes from three farms, and systematically analyzed the residue, migration and removal of 58 kinds of typical VAs (6 classes) in Tianjin, China. The results showed that about 44 kinds of VAs were quantitatively detected. Tetracycline antibiotics (TCs) usually had higher residual concentrations than other classes of VAs in the raw wastewater; the highest residual concentration was 130.67 ± 5.90 μg/L which occurred for chlortetracycline (CTC). Pig farms generally had more VAs species and higher residual concentrations than dairy farms, and the proportion of different VAs was similar for dairy farms. The final removal rates of different VAs classes varied largely (negative to > 99.87%), and the highest removal rates usually occurred in biological processes for adsorption and biodegradation effects, and occasionally occurred in the final effluents. The correlation coefficients between VAs removal rates and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal rates were much higher than those of total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP) and ammonia nitrogen (NH4-N) in pig farms, while opposite conclusion was obtained in dairy farms. Among different classes, TCs presented the highest daily mass loading of ND ~ 10,453.8 ± 471.7 mg/d in the influent and ND ~ 1141.6 ± 58.9 mg/d in the effluent in farm 1.
