    Abstract Fluoride pollution in water has garnered significant attention worldwide. The issue of fluoride removal remains challenging in areas not covered by municipal water systems. The industrial aluminum electrode and natural bauxite coordinated defluorination system (IE-BA) have been employed for fluoride removal. The experiment investigated the effects of pH, current density, and inter-electrode mineral layer thickness on the defluorination process of IE-BA. Additionally, the study examined the treatment efficiency of IE-BA for simulated water with varying F

    Abstract Few reports have focused on using particle electrodes with polar adsorbent properties in heterogeneous electro-Fenton (EF) system to improve the degradation of hydrophilic organic pollutants (HLOPs). In this study, a hydrophilic electrode Sn-Sb/AS was prepared by supporting metals Sn and Sb on alum sludge (AS), which can effectively degrade 91.68%, 92.54%, 89.62%, and 96.24% of the four types of HLOPs, chlorpyrifos (CPF), atrazine (ATZ), diuron (DIU), and glyphosate (PMG), respectively, within 40 min. The mineralization rates were 82.37%, 78.93%, 73.98%, and 85.65% for CPF, ATZ, DIU, and PMG, respectively. Based on the analysis of Electron Paramagnetic Resonance test, quenching test, and identified anthracene endoperoxide, the degradation at the cathode was attributed to non-radical oxidation via interaction with

    Abstract In this study, we developed an airlift-electrocoagulation (AL-EC) reactor to remove norfloxacin (NOR) from water. Six parameters influencing NOR removal were investigated, and the possible removal mechanism was proposed based on flocs characterization and intermediates analysis. The performances for treating different antibiotics and removing NOR from 3 types of water were also evaluated. The best NOR removal efficiency was obtained with the iron anode and aluminum cathode combination, a current density of 2 mA cm

    Abstract As a promising technology, the microalgae-driven strategy can achieve environmentally sustainable and economically viable swine wastewater treatment. Currently, most microalgae-based research focuses on remediation improvement and biomass accumulation, while information on the removal mechanisms and dominant microorganisms is emerging but still limited. In this review, the major removal mechanisms of pollutants and pathogenic bacteria are systematically discussed. In addition, the bacterial and microalgal community during the swine wastewater treatment process are summarized. In general, Blastomonas, Flavobacterium, Skermanella, Calothrix and Sedimentibacter exhibit a high relative abundance. In contrast to the bacterial community, the microalgal community does not change much during swine wastewater treatment. Additionally, the effects of various parameters (characteristics of swine wastewater and cultivation conditions) on microalgal growth and current challenges in the microalgae-driven biotreatment process are comprehensively introduced. This review stresses the need to integrate bacterial and microalgal ecology information into the conventional design of full-scale swine wastewater treatment systems and operations. Herein, future research needs are also proposed, which will facilitate the development and operation of a more efficient microalgae-based swine wastewater treatment process.

    Abstract Much attention has been paid to developing methods capable of synchronous removal of pollutants from swine wastewater. Due to the natural symbiotic interactions between microalgae and bacteria, the microalgae-bacteria symbiosis (ABS) system has been found to have potential for treating wastewater. However, the corresponding biological mechanisms in the ABS system and the role of dynamic microbial community evolution in pollutant removal systems remain poorly understood. Therefore, we investigate the potential of an ABS system for pollutant removal applications and analyze the bacterial consortium symbiotically combined with Chlorella sp. MA1 and Coelastrella sp.

    Abstract Microalgal-bacterial system (MBS) is potential biotechnology in wastewater treatment because it can remedy defects of conventional processes (e.g., insufficient carbon source and imbalanced elements ratio). However, the mechanisms of nitrogen (N) transport and removal in MBS are still unclear. In this study, it was discovered that MBS was conducive to adsorb NH₄⁺-N and NO₃–-N through electrical neutralization, while extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) could provide binding sites (e.g., –OH and –CH₃) for enhancing N transport and removal. The microalgae-bacteria interaction could accelerate N transport and removal from aqueous solution to cell. More importantly, the microalgal starch biosynthetic metabolism exhibited demonstrating the energy production potential could be boosted via MBS. Overall, the NO₃–-N and NH₄⁺-N removal efficiencies, and energy yield were 82.28%, 94.15%, and 86.81 kJ/L, respectively, which are better than other relevant studies. Altogether, it is meaningful for revealing the applicability of MBS for treating wastewater and producing energy.

    Abstract Much attention has been paid to developing methods capable of synchronous removal of pollutants from swine wastewater. Due to the natural symbiotic interactions between microalgae and bacteria, the microalgae-bacteria symbiosis (ABS) system has been found to have potential for treating wastewater. However, the corresponding biological mechanisms in the ABS system and the role of dynamic microbial community evolution in pollutant removal systems remain poorly understood. Therefore, we investigate the potential of an ABS system for pollutant removal applications and analyze the bacterial consortium symbiotically combined with Chlorella sp. MA1 and Coelastrella sp. KE4. The NH₄⁺-N and PO₄³⁻-P removal efficiencies were significantly increased from 12.79% to 99.52% and 35.66% to 96.06% due to biotic interactions between the microalgae and bacteria. The abundance of bacterial taxa and genes related to oxidative stress, cell growth and nitrogen transfer were found to increase in response to photosynthesis, respiration and NH₄⁺-N uptake. Furthermore, pathogen inactivation was induced via microalgae, co-driven by microbial succession under high dissolved oxygen conditions. In this microalgae-enhanced ABS system, the interactions between microalgae and bacteria are established for pathogens elimination and nitrogen cycling, verifying that the ABS system is an effective and environmentally sustainable swine wastewater treatment method.

    Abstract This work aimed to study an newly isolated microalgal strain, Chlamydomonas sp. QWY37, that can achieve a maximum carbohydrate production of 944 mg/L·d, along with high pollutant removal efficiencies (chemical oxygen demand: 81%, total nitrogen: 96%, total phosphate: nearly 100%) by optimizing culture conditions and using an appropriate operation strategy. Through a cell-displayed technology that utilizes combined engineered system, a maximum microalgal bioethanol yield of 61 g/L was achieved. This is the first report demonstrating the highest microalgal carbohydrate productivity using swine wastewater without any pretreatments associated with direct high-density bioethanol production from the subsequent microalgal biomass. This work may represent a breakthrough in achieving feasible microalgal bioethanol conversion from real swine wastewater.
