Enhanced energy recovery from landfill leachate by linking light and dark bio-reactions: Underlying synergistic effects of dual microalgal interaction

Haixing Chang et al.

Summary: A combined technique of microalgae photosynthesis and dark fermentation was proposed to efficiently reclaim nutrients and COD from landfill leachate, and convert microalgae biomass into biohydrogen and VFAs. The interaction between Scenedesmus obliquus and Chlorella vulgaris was enhanced by extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), leading to better absorption of nutrients and higher energy yield. This work fills the knowledge gaps of dual microalgal interactions and provides insights for the disposal of landfill leachate and bioenergy production.

How Physical Interactions Shape Bacterial Biofilms

Berenike Maier

Summary: Biofilms are structured communities formed by one or multiple microbial species, where bacteria adjust cell-to-cell interactions by tuning expression levels of surface and extracellular matrix components. Deciphering how gene expression changes affect physical interactions within biofilms is a key challenge, while bacteria control physical interactions to maximize their fitness is an emerging theme.
