The high salinity and fat contents of kitchen waste (KW) inhibits the effect of two-phase anaerobic digestion system. This research introduces fruit-vegetable waste (FVW) to alleviate the inhibition effect caused by salinity and fat concentrations, and tries to achieve an optimal addition ratio of FVW, an optimal hydraulic remain time (HRT) of acidogenic-phase reactor and methanogenic-phase reactor. A two-phase anaerobic digestion (AD) system was developed to co-dispose KW and FVW. Four sets of experiments were run with different mass proportions between KW and FVW (25-75, 50-50, 75-25, and 100-0% m/m). Considering the biodegradation rate and the acidification degree, the system with 25% KW had the best performance during the acidogenic phase. When the system was run with 50% KW, it not only had the best stability performance but also had a bigger capacity to treat KW than the system with 25% KW. The system with 50% KW was the best ratio in this two-phase AD system. Co-digestion of KW and FVW by two-phase AD is feasible. The addition of FVW can reduce the inhibition effect caused by salinity and fat concentrations, reduce the HRT, and lead to a higher degree of acidification.

An obligately anaerobic, Gram-stain-negative, non-spore-forming and non-motile rod (strain LPYR103-Pre) was isolated from a two-phase methane fermentation system. Using 16S rRNA gene sequence-based phylogenetic analysis, strain LPYR103-Pre was classified in the genus . The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization between strain LPYR103-Pre and its phylogenetically nearest species JCM 30867 - were 94.

Two-phase anaerobic digestion (AD) performance is significantly influenced by operating parameters such as temperature and solids retention time (SRT), while their impact on antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) during the acidogenic (AP) and methanogenic (MP) phases remains unclear. This study assessed the abundance of eight ARGs in full-scale two-phase AD, then operated lab-scale two-phase AD systems to evaluate temperature combinations (thermophilic-thermophilic, thermophilic-mesophilic, mesophilic-thermophilic, and mesophilic-mesophilic) at a constant SRT (AP = 2/MP = 13d) and to further assess different SRTs (AP = 2/MP = 13d and AP = 4/MP = 11d). qPCR results revealed that full-scale two-phase AD reduced total ARGs abundance by 87.

Perchlorate, initially regarded as a weakly coordinating counterion rather than a reactive oxidizing reagent due to its kinetic stability, has garnered attention for its potential in microbial systems. Under anaerobic conditions, microbes utilize perchlorate as a terminal oxidant for methane oxidation, involving two distinct stages: extraction and release of oxidizing ability. This two-phase activation process necessitates the collaborative action of multiple enzymes, a phenomenon not extensively explored in artificial systems.

Article Synopsis
- The study compares two wastewater treatment processes: the traditional anaerobic/anoxic/aerobic (A/A/O) method and a novel two-phase anaerobic/aerobic system integrated with a membrane process (P1) for treating pesticide wastewater.
- Results showed that the new P1 process significantly outperformed the improved A/A/O process (P2), achieving a 67.1% reduction in effluent ethylene thiourea (ETU) levels and a much lower average cyanide concentration (0.40 mg/L compared to 6.67 mg/L in P2).
- Additionally, P1 demonstrated superior removal efficiencies for chemical oxygen demand (COD) and total
