Article Synopsis
  • * A study established a combined treatment system using two types of macroalgae (Caulerpa lentillifera and Caulerpa sertularoides f. Longipes) and immobilized degrading bacteria to treat shrimp culture wastewater, achieving significant nutrient removal efficiencies.
  • * The research showed that while both macroalgae types effectively removed nutrients (with Caulerpa lentillifera performing slightly better), dominant bacterial communities remained unchanged, indicating their resilience despite the treatment intervention.

For achieving advanced nitrogen removal, a simultaneous endogenous denitratation/anammox (EDA) process was developed that could be undertaken in a sequencing batch reactor. The results indicated that, when the influent COD/TN ratio was 3.16, the advanced nitrogen removal was achieved with the effluent TN of 1.

The cadmium-resistant bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain ZGKD2 exhibiting tolerance to various heavy-metals was isolated from gangue pile of coal area in our laboratory. This bacterium could serve as an effective metal sequestering and growth-promoting bioinoculant for plants grown in metal-contaminated soil. However, the mechanism of heavy-metal tolerance is still unclear.
