Summary: The distribution of biogas in headspace and gas collection devices is often assumed to be identical in batch experiments for evaluating biohydrogen potential. However, this assumption has been examined for the first time and a model for biogas distribution has been developed and validated. The results showed a difference of 5% to 30% in biogas concentration between headspace and gas collection unit. This measurement error in batch experiments has led to inaccurate reporting of biohydrogen purity and negative impacts on industry operations and regulatory compliance.

Summary: This study examined the working mechanisms of acetic acid inhibition on dark fermentative hydrogen production. The results showed that undissociated acetic acid concentration was the critical factor in acetic acid inhibition. Acetic acid inhibited hydrogen production by altering the dominant microbial community and regulating the metabolic pathways. Controlling the undissociated acetic acid concentration would be an effective strategy to alleviate acetic acid inhibition.

Summary: This study investigates the correlations among wettability, dimple curvature radius, and nucleation characteristics on nanostructured surfaces. The results show that nucleation sites are located in the interior of dimples. Increasing surface hydrophobicity or dimple curvature radius would make nucleation more difficult. The obtained critical sizes of nuclei from molecular dynamics simulations are larger than the results estimated by the classical nucleation theory. Additionally, increasing the dimple number benefits the nucleation probability and condensation performance.

Summary: Biochars derived from agricultural wastes were modified by manganese ferrite (MnFe2O4) co-precipitation and used as adsorbents for the removal of Cu(II) ions from water. The MnFe2O4-biochars exhibited rapid adsorption kinetics and significantly enhanced adsorption capacities. Complexation reactions involving carboxyl and hydroxyl groups in pristine biochars, as well as Mn-O and Fe-O groups in MnFe2O4-biochars, were identified as the principal adsorption mechanisms. The regenerated MnFe2O4-biochars could be reused for three cycles with a decline in maximum adsorption capacities.

Summary: This paper presents an integrated anaerobic-anoxic-oxic (A2O) treatment scheme for highly problematic wastewater from the production of PPS and its composite chemicals. The A2O process, utilizing anaerobic granular sludge blanket (GSB) and anoxic-oxic (AO) reactor, effectively removes COD, TKN, NH3, and S2 from the wastewater to meet the regulatory limits. With proper acclimation and design, the integrated A2O scheme offers a resilient and robust treatment solution for high-strength recalcitrant PPS wastewater.

Summary: The flourishing of anaerobic digestion highlights the importance of digestate valorization, which is crucial in determining the benefits of the process. Recently, digestate has gradually been perceived as a product rather than waste, in order to achieve the concept of a circular economy and maximize its benefits. Land application is the simplest way for valorization, but legislative restrictions and environmental concerns necessitate novel valorization methods. This review outlines the current methods for solid/liquid digestate valorization, nutrient recovery, microalgae cultivation, and integration with biological and thermochemical processes. The proposed novel valorization routes and their challenges and prospects are discussed, with the integration of anaerobic digestion and thermochemical methods showing potential market value for hydrochar/biochar-derived products.

Summary: In this study, the covalent organic framework TpPa(OH)2 was used for the first time as a pH-responsive adsorbent for copper ions from water. The Langmuir adsorption capacities showed that the process was endothermic and entropy-driven. However, the adsorption capacity decreased when proton attacks occurred at a low pH value. The pH-swing technique increased the adsorption capacity by creating excess sites on the exfoliated layers.

Summary: The eco-friendly treatment of complex textile and dyeing wastewaters is a pressing environmental concern. This study examined an approach that utilizes different treatment paths and integrated anaerobic-aerobic processes to treat high-strength and recalcitrant textile dyeing wastewaters. The results showed that polyaluminum chloride precoagulation was effective in removing over 97% of suspended solids (SS) and more than 70% of chemical oxygen demand (COD) in the suede fabric dyeing stream. Hydrolysis pretreatment also proved successful in removing up to 58% of COD and 83% of SS in other low-strength streams. Additionally, the integrated anaerobic-aerobic treatment achieved notable COD removal of up to 99% from high-strength wastewaters. The anaerobic granular sludge process demonstrated several advantageous attributes, including high feed loading, a smaller footprint, minimal sludge production, and good stability. Overall, the integrated anaerobic-aerobic treatment provides a robust and viable option for highly contaminated and recalcitrant textile dyeing wastewaters.

Summary: This paper developed a machine learning model to predict the biochemical methane potential during anaerobic digestion. Model analysis identified lignin content, organic loading, and nitrogen content as key attributes for methane production prediction. For feedstocks with high cellulose content, early methane production is lower but can be improved by prolonging digestion time. Moreover, lignin content exceeding a certain value significantly inhibits methane production.
