3D-printed controllable bio-accelerators with sustained release property to boost chromium (VI) inhibited denitrification recovery.

Although soluble bio-accelerators have proven effective in mitigating Cr(VI) inhibition within denitrification system, issues persist in immobilizing bio-accelerators and making them slow-release for sustained regulation. In this study, a novel strategy was proposed to fabricate immobilized bio-accelerators with controlled structure, sustained release property by 3D printing technology. Notably, the sustained release of bio-accelerators from 3D-printed bio-accelerators (3DP-B) lasted for at least 144 h.

How halogenated aromatic compounds affect the electron supply and consumption in glucose supported denitrification?

Halogenated aromatic compounds possess bidirectional effects on denitrifying bio-electron behavior, providing electrons and potentially interfering with electron consumption. This study selected the typical 4-chlorophenol (4-CP, 0-100 mg/L) to explore its impact mechanism on glucose-supported denitrification. When COD/COD=28.

Differential analysis of transcriptome of psychrophilic bacteria under different culture temperatures.

Background: Psychrophilic bacteria can survive in a unique living environment.

Objective: To explore the mechanism of low temperature adaptation and the physiological function of thermophilic metabolic genes.

Method: Serratia marcescens strain F13 stored in microbial laboratory was cultured at 5∘C, 10∘C and 25∘C respectively, and the obtained strains were sequenced by high-throughput transcriptome.

Recovery mechanism of bio-promoters on Cr(VI) suppressed denitrification: Toxicity remediation and enhanced electron transmission.

Although the biotoxicity of heavy metals has been widely studied, there are few reports on the recovery strategy of the inhibited bio-system. This study proposed a combined promoter-I (Primary promoter: l-cysteine, biotin, and cytokinin + Electron-shuttle: PMo) to recover the denitrification suppressed by Cr(VI). Compared with self-recovery, combined promoter-I shortened the recovery time of 28 cycles, and the recovered reactor possessed more stable long-term operation performance with >95 % nitrogen removal.
