    Abstract Cake layer formation is an inevitable challenge in membrane bioreactor (MBR) operation. The investigations on the cake layer microbial community are essential to control biofouling. This work studied the bacterial and archaeal communities in the cake layer, the anaerobic sludge, and the membrane cleaning solutions of anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) with yttria-based ceramic tubular membrane by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of 16S rRNA genes. The cake layer resistance was 69% of the total membrane resistance. Proteins and soluble microbial by-products (SMPs) were the dominant foulants in the cake layer. The pioneering archaeal and bacteria in the cake layer were mostly similar to those in the anaerobic bulk sludge. The dominant biofouling bacteria were

    Abstract Stormwater Control Measures (SCMs) contribute to reducing micropollutant emissions from separate sewer systems. SCM planning and design are often performed by looking at the hydrological performance. Assessment of pollutant removal and the ability to comply with discharge concentration limits is often simplified due to a lack of data and limited monitoring resources. This study analyses the impact of using different time resolutions of input stormwater concentrations when assessing the compliance of SCMs against water quality standards. The behaviour of three indicator micropollutants (MP - Copper, Diuron, Benzo[a]pyrene) was assessed in four SCM archetypes, which were defined to represent typical SCM removal processes. High resolution MP data were extrapolated by using high resolution (2 min) measurements of TSS over a long period (343 events). The compliance assessment showed that high resolution input concentrations can result in a different level of compliance with water quality standards, especially when discharged concentrations are close to the limit values. This study underlines the importance of considering the high temporal variability of stormwater micropollutants when planning and designing SCMs to identify the most effective solutions for stormwater pollution management and to ensure a thorough consideration of all the environmental implications.

    Abstract The global climate change made the heavy rainfall happen more frequently, and the non-point source pollution caused by it would exacerbate the risk to the water ecological environment. In this study, we took a reservoir (Shahe reservoir, Beijing, China) supplied with reclaimed water as an exapmle to investigate how spatiotemporal changes in the quantity and diversity of prokaryotic, eukaryotic, and algal communities respond to heavy rainfall. Results showed that heavy rainfall could directly impact the composition of the prokaryotic community by introducing amounts of runoff closely associated bacterium especially for the human potential pathogens such as Aliarcobacter, Aeromonas and Pseudomonas in the Shahe reservoir area. While the eukaryotic community was rather stable, and the development and changes in algal communities occurred in the last few days after heavy rainfall. The microbial source tracking through FEAST indicated that Nansha river (S) was the major contributor to the development of all the three concerned communities in the reservoir. The co-occurrence analysis showed that the modules with the highest cumulative abundance in each community were all strongly and positively connected with Chl-a, pH, turbidity, COD and TOC, but negatively correlated with NO

    Abstract Composting is a common and effective strategy for reducing antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) from animal manure. However, it is unclear whether the advantages of composting for the control of ARGs and ARB can be further increased in land application. This study investigated the fate of ARB and ARGs after land application of swine-manure composts (SMCs) to three different soil types (red soil, loess and black soil). The results showed that although the SMCs caused an increase in the abundance of total ARGs in the soil in the short period, they significantly reduced (p < 0.01) the abundance of total ARGs after 82 days compared to the control. The decay rate of ARGs reflected by the half-life times (t

    Abstract The role of ferric chloride (FC) on the reduction of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in anaerobic digestion (AD) system was investigated from the perspective of vertical (VGT) and horizontal gene transfer (HGT) network through the high-throughput qPCR (HT-qPCR). Although FC showed limited impacts on methane production in AD of swine manure, the tetracycline and MLSB resistance genes were specifically reduced at the end, where tetQ of antibiotic target protection and ermF of antibiotic target alteration contributed the most to the reduction. Both VGT and HGT network were divided into three modules, and the complexity of HGT network was largely reduced along with AD, where the HGT connection was reduced from 683 (Module III) to 172 (Module I), and FC addition could further reduce the relative abundance of ARG hosts in Module I. The contribution of VGT and HGT to the changes of ARGs in AD was further deciphered, and although the VGT reflected by the changes of microbial community contributed the most to the dynamics of ARGs (68.0 %), the HGT contribution could further be reduced by the FC addition. This study provided a new perspective on the fate of ARGs response to the FC addition in the AD system.

    Abstract The treatment and reuse of hygiene wastewater is crucial to “close the loop” in the controlled ecological life support system (CELSS), and to guarantee longer space missions or planetary habitation. In this work, anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) was applied for hygiene wastewater treatment, focused on surfactant degradation and microbial community succession. The removal efficiency of COD and surfactants was 90%∼97% and 80% with a urine source-separation strategy. The microbial community gradually shifted from methanogens to sulfur-metabolizing and surfactant-degradation bacteria, such as Aeromonas. Sulfate was a surfactant degradation product, which triggered sulfate reduction and methane inhibition. The activated carbohydrate and sulfur metabolism were the key mechanism of the microbial process for the excellent performance of AnMBR. This study analyzed the degradation mechanism from the perspective of microbial mechanism, offers a solution for CELSS hygiene wastewater treatment, and supports the future improvement and refinement of AnMBR technology.

    Abstract Anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) is a potential process to achieve the neutralization of energy and carbon. Due to the low temperature and variation of municipal sewage, the application of mainstream anammox is hard to be implemented. For spreading mainstream anammox in practice, several key issues and bottlenecks including the start-up, stable NO₂--N supply, maintenance and dominance of AnAOB with high activity, prevention of NO₃--N buildup, reduction of sludge loss, adaption to the seasonal temperature and alleviation of COD impacts on AnAOB are discussed and summarized in this review in order to improve its startup, stable operation and resilience of mainstream anammox. Hence a combined biological nitrogen removal (CBNR) system based on conventional denitrification, shortcut nitrification-denitrification, Partial Nitritation and partial Denitrification combined Anammox (PANDA) process through the management of organic matter and nitrate is proposed correspondingly aiming at adaptation to the variations of seasonal temperature and pollutants in influent.

    Abstract Mineral scaling is one key obstacle to membrane distillation in hypersaline wastewater desalination, but the scaling or fouling mechanism is poorly understood. Addressing this challenge required revealing the foulants layer formation process. In this work, the scaling process was deconstructed with a cascade strategy by stepwise changing the composition of the synthetic desulfurization wastewater. The flux decline curves presented a 3-stage mode in vacuum membrane distillation (VMD). Heterogeneous nucleation of CaMg(CO₃)₂, CaF₂, and CaCO₃ was the main incipient scaling mechanism. Mg-Si complex was the leading foulant in 2nd-stage, during which the scaling mechanism shifted from surface to bulk crystallization. The flux decreased sharply for the formation of a thick and compacted scaling layer by the bricklaying of CaSO₄ and Mg-Si-BSA complexes in the 3rd-stage. Bulk crystallization was identified as the key scaling mechanism in VMD for the high salinity and concentration multiple. The organic matter had an anti-scaling effect by changing the bulk crystallization. Humic acids (HA) and colloidal silica also contributed to incipient scaling for the high affinity to membrane, bovine serum albumin (BSA) acting as the cement of Mg-Si complexes. Mg altered the Si scaling from polymerization to Mg-Si complex formation, which significantly influence the mixed scaling mechanism. This work deconstructed the mixed scaling process and illuminated the role of main foulants, filling in the knowledge gap on the mixed scaling mechanism in VMD for hypersaline wastewater treatment and recovery.
