The effectiveness of three different treatment units (anaerobic, anoxic, and aerobic) in A/A/O reactors when treating landfill leachate that contained varying concentrations of tetracycline (TC) was evaluated. The effluent quality, sludge performance, and removal rates of COD, TN, TP, and NH-N of the reactors were investigated. The results showed that in the three treatment units (anaerobic, anoxic, and aerobic), when the TC dosage was 10 mg/L, the removal rates of NH-N continued to decrease to 6.

- Landfill leachate, which is the liquid that drains from landfills, contains small pieces of plastic called microplastics (MPs) and genes that make bacteria resistant to antibiotics (ARGs).
- The presence of two types of microplastics (polystyrene and polyethylene) affects how well nitrogen and phosphorus are removed from the waste during treatment and influences the growth of bacteria that form a slimy layer (biofilm) on the microplastics.
- Researchers found that these microplastics help bacteria accumulate more of the antibiotic-resistant genes, especially on polyethylene, and this discovery is important for understanding how pollution spreads in the environment.
