Degradation of tetracycline, oxytetracycline & ampicillin by purified multiple copper oxidase like laccase from Stentrophomonas sp. YBX1.

Multiple copper oxidase (MCO) like laccase is widely distributed in higher plant, fungi and bacteria. This study identified MCO like laccase producing bacterium isolated from a wastewater treatment plant based on 16S rRNA sequence analysis, and they were further confirmed by phylogenetic reconstruction. Biochemical and gene characterization of MCO like laccase from Stenotrophomonas sp.

Preparation of CeO-doped carbon nanotubes cathode and its mechanism for advanced treatment of pig farm wastewater.

The effluent from conventional treatment process (including anaerobic digestion and anoxic-oxic treatment) for pig farm wastewater was difficult to treat due to its low ratio of biochemical oxygen demand to chemical oxygen demand (BOD/COD) (<0.1). In the present study, electro-Fenton (EF) was used to improve the biodegradability of the mentioned effluent and the properties of self-prepared CeO-doped multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) electrodes were also studied.
