In order to treat the high concentration landfill leachate, ozone direct oxidation pretreatment and catalytic oxidation post-treatment coupled with anaerobic baffled membrane bioreactor (ABMBR) system was proposed in this study. For pretreatment, ozone direct oxidation could remarkably reduce UV, 3D fluorescence peak value and fluorescence regional integration (FRI) of organic pollutants. For ABMBR treatment, the removal efficiencies of COD and ammonia nitrogen were 80.38% and 21.56%, respectively. Post-treatment included struvite precipitation, ozone catalytic oxidation and membrane bioreactor (MBR) treatment. Finally, the total removal efficiencies of COD and ammonia nitrogen were 91.2% and 99.4%, respectively. The chroma was remarkably decreased from 1250 times to 40 times after a series of treatments. The acids in ABMBR could be degraded by microorganisms of Proteobacteria and Chloroflexi. The cellulose and polysaccharides could be decomposed by Bacteroidetes and ketones could be decomposed by Brevundimonas in ABMBR. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) analysis indicated that the hydroxyl radicals were the main reactive oxygen species during the direct ozone oxidation process, while the superoxide radicals played an important role in the ozone catalytic oxidation process.

Hydride (H) species on oxides have been extensively studied over the past few decades because of their critical role in various catalytic processes. Their syntheses require high temperatures and the presence of hydrogen, which involves complex equipment, high energy costs, and strict safety protocols. Hydride species tend to decompose in the presence of atmospheric oxygen and water, which reduces their catalytic activities.

A new gene coding for an iron-containing enzyme was identified in the genome of Acinetobacter radioresistens. Bioinformatics analysis allowed the assignment of the protein to DyP peroxidases, due to the presence of conserved residues involved in heme binding and catalysis. Moreover, Ar-DyP is located in an operon coding also for other enzymes involved in iron uptake and regulation.

Designing and constructing hierarchically structured materials with heterogeneous compositions is the key to developing an effective catalyst for overall water-splitting applications. Herein, we report the fabrication of hollow-structured selenium-doped nickel-cobalt hybrids on carbon paper as a self-supported electrode (denoted as Se-Ni|Co/CP, where Ni|Co hybrids consist of nickel-cobalt alloy-incorporated nickel-cobalt oxide). The procedure involves direct growth of zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) on bimetal-based nickel-cobalt hydroxide (NiCoOH) electrodeposited on CP, followed by selenous etching and pyrolysis to obtain the final Se-Ni|Co/CP electrocatalytic system.

Introduction: The development of efficient and sustainable catalytic methodolo-gies has garnered considerable attention in contemporary organic synthesis.
Methods: Herein, we present a novel approach employing the Cu@DPP-SPION catalyst for the synthesis of ethyl 4-(aryl)-6-methyl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-5-carboxylate derivatives. This versatile catalytic system incorporates copper nanoparticles supported on 4-(1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthrolin-2-yl)benzoic acid-functionalized superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs).

Crystal Violet (CV) is a vibrant and harmful dye known for its toxicity to aquatic life and potential carcinogenic effects on humans. This study explores the removal of CV through photocatalysis driven by visible light, as well as examining the antibacterial and antibiofilm characteristics of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) synthesized from the aerial roots of Ficus benghalensis. Various characterization techniques were employed to confirm the optical properties, crystal lattices, and morphology of ZnO NPs.
