Summary: The study assessed the variations in the trophic state condition of Lake Bunyonyi over a period of one year. The results showed that the lake was eutrophic in both dry and wet seasons, possibly due to nutrients inflow from farmlands. The study recommends the development of guidelines for trophic status monitoring of the lake.

Summary: This study assesses the ecohydrogeochemical status of Loktak Lake, the largest freshwater lake in Northeastern India, based on water quality parameters, hydrogeochemistry, water quality indices (WQI), and trophic state index (TSI). The study findings indicate that the lake water exceeds the permissible limits set by the WHO and BIS for parameters such as pH, turbidity, dissolved oxygen, biological oxygen demand, iron, fluoride, and coliform concentrations. The water hardness is generally soft, but some samples are moderately hard. The WQI values show variations and indicate poor to good water quality, suitable for agricultural use. The TSI assessment reveals oligotrophic and mesotrophic conditions during different seasons.

Summary: Algal blooms have had significant global impacts on marine ecosystems, aquaculture, recreational activities, and human health. Therefore, there is an urgent need for indices to evaluate seawater nutritional status for predicting algal blooms. This study developed a real-time trophic state index (RTSI) using a long-term water quality monitoring dataset from Dapeng Bay, Southern Taiwan. The RTSI, which is simple and does not require complicated measurements, showed sensitivity to changes in seawater quality and can aid managers in monitoring and managing algal blooms.

Summary: This study analyzed the spatio-temporal variation in surface water quality of the tropical reservoir Mettur, India, and found that spatial variation was influenced by input from industrial and domestic wastewater in the lacustrine zone of the reservoir. Despite temporal variability often exceeding spatial variability, factor analysis showed that basin geology, anthropogenic stress, and agricultural applications play crucial roles in determining the reservoir water quality.

Summary: Phytoplankton blooms are important indicators of eutrophication, and their impact on bacterial communities in freshwater lakes is not well understood. This study investigated the dynamics of bacterial communities in both water and sediment samples during a complete period of phytoplankton blooms in a subtropical eutrophic lake. The results showed that phytoplankton blooms significantly altered the diversity, composition, and coexistence patterns of both planktonic and sediment bacterial communities. The successional patterns of bacterial communities differed between the planktonic and sediment environments.

Summary: This study found a strong correlation between extracellular polymeric substances of microalgal-bacterial granules and the granule size. The granule size had a positive effect on the removal of specific organics in wastewater, but a negative effect on ammonium and phosphorus removal. Granule size can be used as an indicator to reflect the synergistic interactions between microalgae and bacteria in microalgal-bacterial granules.

Summary: In this study, it was demonstrated that CO2 can effectively enhance the physical structure and stability of microalgal-bacterial granular sludge (MBGS), improve the removal efficiency of organics and phosphorus, and provide additional carbon source and buffering capacity for the MBGS system in wastewater treatment. Furthermore, CO2 supply could potentially lead to a carbon-negative objective and eliminate carbon emissions, making it a promising strategy for environment-sustainable wastewater treatment.

Summary: This study developed an innovative A-B process for carbon-neutral wastewater treatment by combining an anaerobic biofilm reactor (AnBR) as the A stage for energy recovery and a step-feed membrane bioreactor (MBR) as the B stage for mainstream deammonification. A multi-parameter control-based operation strategy was developed to address the challenge of selectively retaining ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) over nitrite oxidizing bacteria (NOB). Results showed that this process configuration achieved high removal rates of COD, ammonium-N, and total nitrogen, while promoting the growth and enrichment of anammox bacteria.

Summary: This study reported the development, performance, and microbial community of microalgal-bacterial biofilms for municipal wastewater treatment in a continuous-flow photoreactor. The results showed that microalgal-bacterial biofilms were successfully developed without external aeration. The biofilm concentrations reached steady-state at 4690 mg/L with a hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 9 h. Increasing HRT to 12 h did not enhance the biofilm accumulation but resulted in faster growth of microalgae, while the chlorophyll-a&b content in biofilms stabilized after the initial stage. Performance analysis revealed that microalgal-bacterial biofilms removed 90% of TOC, 71.4% of total nitrogen, and 72.6% of phosphorus in the steady-state photoreactor run at an HRT of 12 h with external aeration. Cyanobacteria and Chloroflexi were the dominant components, while Chlorophyta dominated the eukaryotic algal community in biofilms. This study provides insights into the development of microalgal-bacterial biofilms for sustainable low-carbon municipal wastewater treatment in continuous-flow photoreactors.

Summary: This article provides a preliminary analysis on the carbon capture potential of microalgal cultivation, indicating that the energy consumption and nutrient input can result in significant indirect carbon emissions, making microalgal carbon capture less effective. The current processes may not be environmentally sustainable and economically viable, thus renewable energy and cheap nutrient sources should be explored to reduce indirect carbon emissions and promote complete nutrient recycling through using microalgae as biofertilizers or aquafeeds.

Summary: In this study, a human physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model of diethyl phthalate (DEP) was developed to assess its toxicity. The model considers the distribution and metabolism of DEP and its active metabolite monoethyl phthalate (MEP) in different tissue compartments. Sensitivity analysis and Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulations were performed to evaluate the uncertainty and variability of the model parameters. The results suggest that dermal absorption is an important route of exposure to DEP in the environment.

Summary: This study investigates the feasibility and mechanisms of a chemical-free nanobubble-based AOP for treating organic micropollutants in water. The results show that the oxygen nanobubble AOP has a significantly higher removal efficiency compared to air and nitrogen nanobubbles. The treatment performance is not affected by pH and the presence of ions. Higher initial concentrations of the micropollutant lead to slower treatment processes, but similar removal performance is achieved in the end. The presence of organic matter reduces the removal rate of the micropollutant. The results have practical feasibility for water and wastewater treatment.

It was found that increasing the application of thiencarbazone-methyl center dot isoxaflutole resulted in increased stress on soil bacterial community structure and diversity. Increasing soil pH was recognized as a key factor in improving the diversity and structure of soil microflora. Supplemental use of nitrapyrin or modified attapulgite can increase soil pH and improve bacterial diversity.
