Abstract
Phytohormone gibberellins (GAs) were utilized to enhance the removal of tetracycline antibiotics and nutrients from swine wastewater by different algal-bacterial symbiosis. Compared to microalgae monoculture, microalgae-activated sludge, and microalgae-Bacillus licheniformis, microalgae-endophytic bacteria showed better growth, photosynthetic, and purification performance. At 50 mg L-1 GAs addition concentration, the specific growth rate of Chlorella vulgaris-endophytic bacterial (S395-2) system was 0.331 ± 0.03 d-1, the maximum removal rate of tetracycline (TC), total nitrogen (TN) and total phosphorus (TP) was 96.31 ± 2.73%, 86.37 ± 8.31% and 87.26 ± 8.42%, respectively. The purification effect was much higher than the level of microalgae monoculture without GAs addition (TC removal of 81.33 ± 7.71%, TN and TP removal of 62.51 ± 5.95% and 64.25 ± 6.13%, respectively). In summary, exogenous GAs simultaneously promoted the resistance and biomass accumulation of algal symbiosis, which supplied a theoretical foundation for the treatment of high-concentration nutrients and antibiotics wastewater.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Phytoremediation (IJP) is the first journal devoted to the publication of laboratory and field research describing the use of plant systems to solve environmental problems by enabling the remediation of soil, water, and air quality and by restoring ecosystem services in managed landscapes. Traditional phytoremediation has largely focused on soil and groundwater clean-up of hazardous contaminants. Phytotechnology expands this umbrella to include many of the natural resource management challenges we face in cities, on farms, and other landscapes more integrated with daily public activities. Wetlands that treat wastewater, rain gardens that treat stormwater, poplar tree plantings that contain pollutants, urban tree canopies that treat air pollution, and specialized plants that treat decommissioned mine sites are just a few examples of phytotechnologies.
