Non-radical mechanism and toxicity analysis of β-cyclodextrin functionalized biochar catalyzing the degradation of bisphenol A and its analogs by peroxydisulfate.

Bisphenols (BPs) are distributed in worldwide as typical environmental hormones, which potentially harm the ecological environment and human health. In this study, four BPs, i.e.

Flocculation performance and mechanism of fungal pellets on harvesting of microalgal biomass.

In this study, a bioflocculation method assisted by fungal pellets was developed for highly efficient microalgae harvesting. Effects of critical parameters, including flocculation type, temperature, rotation speed and initial pH, on the bioflocculation of fungal Aspergillus niger for microalgae Scenedesmus sp. were investigated.
