Summary: The study shows that the nZVI-Ni@BC composite material performs well in activating PS to degrade chlorinated contaminants in water, achieving over 99% TCE degradation. The experimental results also indicate that in acidic environments, both SO4·- and OH· radicals play a dominant role in TCE degradation, while high levels of carbonates, bicarbonates, and NOM inhibit the oxidation reaction of TCE.

Summary: The presence of L-cysteine was found to inhibit the oxidation process of rhodamine B in the zero-valent iron (nZVI)/O-2 system. Cysteine reduced the production of hydroxyl radicals ((OH)-O-center dot) and Fe2+ and Fe3+, possibly through forming hydrogen bonds on the iron surface. Additionally, cystine could react with (OH)-O-center dot, competing with RhB for oxidation, and also prevent the utilization of light. These findings suggest a significant inhibitory effect of amino acids on the heterogeneous Fenton process in wastewater treatment.

Summary: The major environmental crises of the early 21st century include water shortage and pollution. Extensive studies have been conducted to find effective techniques for purifying water from industrial pollutants. Advanced oxidation process (AOP) has gained attention as a clean and contemporary method for wastewater treatment, but further modifications like electrochemical catalytic degradation approaches have been developed to address its limitations. This study investigates the use of different electrodes for electrochemical treatment, aiming to optimize the method for scenarios involving phenol and phenolic compounds.

Summary: This study presents a comprehensive metagenomics-based approach for global surveillance of antibiotic resistance in sewage. The results show that there are shared antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) across different regions/communities, and certain ARGs can be used as discriminatory markers to differentiate Asian and European/US resistomes. The study also reveals discrepancies between measured antibiotic concentrations and public sales data, suggesting that wastewater-based surveillance (WBS) can capture additional antibiotic uses that are not accounted for. The WBS approach demonstrated in this study is sensitive to local/regional factors and can provide comparable results across different sites.

Summary: A proof-of-concept study demonstrates a fuel cell type electrochemical cell that can simultaneously treat wastewater and desalinate water. The cell utilizes the potential difference and concentration gradient between waste streams to convert chemical energy into electrical energy. When urea is used as the electron donor, a reduction of 96.2 +/- 0.4% in Cr(VI) concentration and a salt removal rate of 63.1 +/- 0.2% are achieved within 4 hours, with a maximum power output of 15.2 mW. A benchtop prototype with six anode-cathode configurations achieves a 95.2 +/- 2% reduction in Cr(VI) concentration and a desalination rate of 70.7 +/- 0.2% within 20 hours, generating 55.2 mW of power.

Summary: This study proposes an efficient strategy for degrading the persistent antibiotic contaminant, ciprofloxacin (CIP). A hybrid advanced oxidation process (HAOP) is tailored with a synergy effect between photocatalysis and photo-Fenton catalysis on a zinc ferrite-titania heterostructured composite (ZFO-TiO2). The results show that the HAOP system significantly enhances the degradation rate of CIP, outperforming conventional TiO2-based photocatalysis. The study also identifies the intermediates and degradation pathways of CIP, and demonstrates the reduced toxicity of the photodegraded samples.

Summary: The use of machine learning to predict the performance of specific adsorbents in phosphate adsorption shows great promise in saving time and revealing underlying mechanisms. However, the small size of the dataset and insufficient detailed information limits the model training process and the accuracy of results. To address this, the study employs a fuzzing strategy that replaces detailed numeric information with descriptive text messages on the physiochemical properties of adsorbents. This strategy allows the recovery of discarded samples with limited information, leading to accurate prediction of adsorption amount, capacity, and kinetics. The study also finds that phosphate uptake by adsorbents is generally through physisorption, with some involvement of chemisorption. The framework established in this study provides a practical approach for quickly predicting phosphate adsorption performance in urgent scenarios, using easily accessible information.
