During scaling of fermentations, choosing a bioreactor is fundamental to ensure the product's quality. This study aims to produce bioherbicides using Trichoderma koningiopsis fermentation, evaluating process parameters in an Airlift bioreactor. As a response, we quantified the production of enzymes involved in the bioherbicide activity (amylase, cellulase, laccase, lipase, and peroxidase). In addition, it evaluated the agronomic efficiency of the fermented extract optimized through tests that promoted soybean growth and nodulation, soybean seed germination, and in vitro phytopathogen control. As a result of optimizing the scaling bioprocess, it was possible to obtain an adequate fermentation condition, which, when applied to soybean seeds, had beneficial effects on their growth. It allowed the production of an enzyme cocktail. These results add a crucial biotechnological potential factor for the success of the optimized formulation in the Airlift bioreactor, in addition to presenting relevant results for the scientific community.

In the single-stage partial nitritation-anammox process for high-ammonium wastewater treatment, the presence of sufficient biomass with high activity is essential. This study developed an innovative airlift inner-circulation partition bioreactor (AIPBR) with a dual-cylinder structure. During the 362 days' operation, the AIPBR exhibited robust and stable nitrogen removal performance under diverse influent ammonium spanning from 300 to 1800 mg N/L.

Article Synopsis
  • This study examines the combined processes of bio-enhanced absorption and biodesulfurization for managing toxic hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) and greenhouse gas carbon monoxide (CO).
  • Addition of air-lift bioreactor solutions significantly improved absorption rates in an alkaline solution, reducing outlet concentrations of H₂S and CO during experimental stages.
  • Key microbial communities, especially sulfur-reducing bacteria such as Thioalkalivibrio and Arenimonas, were identified as crucial contributors to effective absorption, suggesting that biological factors play a critical role in optimizing these processes.

Within this research, a one-stage hybrid dual internal circulation airlift A2O (DCAL-A2O) bioreactor was designed and operated to simultaneously remove carbon, nitrogen and phosphorous (CNP) from milk processing wastewater (MPW) in different operational circumstances. The substantial operating variables monitored in this work were including hydraulic retention time (HRT), airflow rate (AFR) and aeration volume ratio (AVR) ranged from 7 to 15 h, 1-3 L/min and 0.324-0.

An iron-carbon coupled biofilm airlift internal circulation sequencing batch reactor (IC-SBR) was constructed to treat low-carbon source wastewater. Single-factor experiments were used to determine the optimal operating conditions for the IC-SBR, with a hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 10 h, a dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration of 3 mg/L, a C/N ratio of 3, and an influent NH-N concentration of 50 mg/L, with average removal efficiencies of total nitrogen (TN) and total organic carbon (TOC) of 78.06% and 97.
