Summary: This study investigates the effect of arsenic on the performance of soil microbial fuel cells (SMFCs) constructed using soil polluted by petroleum hydrocarbons and arsenic. The results show that increasing soil arsenic concentration leads to a decrease in maximum power density and an increase in internal resistance of the SMFCs. The microbial community on the anode adapts to increased arsenic stress, resulting in changes in community abundance and bioelectricity output. SMFCs also drive the migration of arsenic to the cathode, with this effect decreasing at higher soil arsenic concentrations.

Summary: This study examines the potential use of water-based drill cuttings as supplementary cementitious material. After drying, calcining, and grinding, the drill cuttings can partially replace ordinary Portland cement, offering both high calcium silicate content and grindability. The research explores four variables (calcination time, calcination temperature, replacement ratio, and fineness) and their impact on compressive strength. Optimal results indicate that replacing 10 wt% of ordinary Portland cement, with controlled calcination temperature (830-870 degrees C), calcination time (28-32 min), and fineness of sieving (1600 mesh), can produce a product meeting mechanical criteria and saving energy. Compressive strengths of 39.00 MPa at 7 days, 47.00 MPa at 28 days, and 52.00 MPa at 90 days were achieved. Various analytical techniques were used to characterize the mechanisms of the water-based drill cuttings and confirm their feasibility as supplementary cementitious material.
