Effect of aeration modes on nitrogen removal and N2O emission in the partial nitrification and denitrification process for landfill leachate treatment

Junliang Gao et al.

Summary: The effect of two aeration modes in the aerobic phase on nitrogen removal and N2O emission in treating landfill leachate was compared. Increasing dissolved oxygen showed positive effects on nitrogen removal and minimized N2O emission. However, high dissolved oxygen concentration reduced nitrogen removal and led to high N2O emission.

A novel strategy for enhancing anaerobic biodegradation of an anthraquinone dye reactive blue 19 with resuscitation-promoting factors

Jiafang Cai et al.

Summary: The study explored a novel method of using resuscitation-promoting factors (Rpfs) to enhance the degradation efficiency of the dye RB19 in anaerobic processes. Results showed that Rpfs efficiently promoted RB19 decolorization, increasing decolorization efficiency by over 20%. Additionally, Rpfs appeared to stimulate and enrich dye-degrading species of the family Peptostreptococcaceae, leading to higher RB19 decolorization efficiency.

Enhancement of polychlorinated biphenyl biodegradation by resuscitation promoting factor (Rpf) and Rpf-responsive bacterial community

Xiaomei Su et al.

Summary: Using Rpf from Micrococcus luteus can enhance the biodegradation of PCBs in contaminated environments by resuscitating and stimulating functional bacterial populations. It was found that Rpf significantly altered the composition and abundance of bacterial populations in the phylum Proteobacteria, with Sphingomonas and Pseudomonas identified as key PCB-degraders. These results suggest that Rpf has the potential to improve the efficiency of bioremediation processes in PCB-contaminated environments.

Chenchen Huang et al.

Summary: This study investigated the carbon and chlorine isotope fractionation during ultraviolet-photolysis of PCBs in different photochemical systems, revealing differences in degradation processes. Nondechlorinated pathways and magnetic isotope effects were suggested in MeOH/H2O for PCB138. Significant negative correlations were found between C-AKIE and relative disappearance quantum yields of ortho-dechlorinated substrates in Hex and MeOH/H2O.

Zhanyu Guo et al.

Summary: The addition of methanol significantly accelerated the degradation of BDE-47 by QY2, but excessive methanol induced stress on microbial cells, leading to cell apoptosis and death. The community structure of QY2 remained relatively stable after the addition of methanol, highlighting the role of Methylobacterium in maintaining stability.

Exploitation of extracellular organic matter from Micrococcus luteus to enhance ex situ bioremediation of soils polluted with used lubricants

Attila Bodor et al.

Summary: The study showed that using extracellular organic matter (EOM) from Micrococcus luteus to enhance bioremediation of ULO pollution was effective, with a significant increase in microbial activity and degradation efficiency. High-throughput 16S rRNA analysis revealed that the enhancement was attributed to the reactivation of hydrocarbonoclastic bacterial genera and the long-term positive effect of EOM on the introduced rhodococci. Reducing ULO concentration did not necessarily correlate with decreased soil toxicity.
