In this study, semi-continuous flow experiments demonstrated that WAS degradation was highest under alkaline pH (10) but unsuitable for CE. Continuous output of MCFAs indicated that CE could be successfully performed under acidic pH (5) and neutral pH (7). Moreover, neutral pH optimized MCFAs production, achieving higher MCFAs yield (8.9 ± 1.2 g COD/L), MCFAs selectivity (51.2 ± 7.3%), and WAS degradation (25.4 ± 0.4%) than acidic pH. Further metagenomic and metatranscriptomic analysis revealed that the reverse β-oxidation cycle was the primary CE pathway. The absence of CE-related microorganisms and enzymes under alkaline pH hindered MCFAs synthesis, while under acidic pH, carboxylate accumulation may reduce cellular protection capabilities and affect energy metabolism, thereby inhibiting anaerobic fermentation. Conversely, neutral pH enhanced amino acid and butyrate metabolic pathways, facilitating WAS degradation and SCFAs production, providing precursor substrates for MCFAs production. Additionally, neutral pH promoted the enrichment and activity of CE-related microorganisms and enzymes, contributing to the accumulation of high-concentration MCFAs.

The addition of Ag/Cu BNPs (9.38 μg/mL) inhibited the corrosion of X65 carbon steel induced by the mixed strains with 77.9% compared to the untreated condition.

We find that, in 2021, central monitors were located in cleaner areas than local monitors, and both monitors were located around public buildings like hospitals.

Driven by national policies, the Mu Us Sandy Land has effectively reversed desertification, showing multiple win-win results in ecological, economic and social benefits. However, due to the lack of long-term continuous dynamic monitoring data, its dynamic development pattern and multidimensional driving factors are still controversial. Therefore, it is urgent to implement long-term desertification monitoring and quantitative assessment, especially to assess the contribution of ecological restoration policies to desertification control. Based on the Google Earth Engine and combined with multi-source remote sensing data, this study produced a set of high-precision LUCC and FVC data of the Mu Us Sandy Land from 1986 to 2020. The dataset of LUCC was verified by random sampling based on field surveys and remote sensing images, and the overall accuracy was 90.03%. Based on these two sets of data, the spatiotemporal dynamic characteristics of desertification and ecological restoration in the region are further analyzed and revealed. We found that the desertification land in the Mu Us Sandy Land decreased by 69.45% from 1986 to 2020, and the gravity center gradually moved to the northwest away from human aggregation. The area of various vegetation types increased and expanded to the original desertification area. The average FVC in the Mu Us Sandy Land increased by 26.98%, and Yulin contributed the most to the growth of FVC. These results show that the desertification in the Mu Us Sandy Land has been basically reversed.

Removing ammonia, total nitrogen, and phosphorus concurrently with organic matter and suspended solids from wastewater is essential to meeting stringent effluent discharge standards via SBNR in WWTPs. More insight into the mechanisms of SBNR, i.e., simultaneous nitrification-denitrification (SND) and enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR) processes, the intracellular carbon reserves, i.e., polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) and specifically poly-β-hydroxybutyrates (PHB), will play a critical role in nutrients removal and resource recovery in WWTPs. Volatile fatty acids (VFA) in wastewater are the preferable source of PHA formation. However, municipal wastewater could not supply sufficient VFA fractions owing to short sewer lines; therefore, developing pre-fermentation chambers and other technological integration in the WWTPs can play an effective role in VFA production from raw sewage, resulting in the effective formation of PHA. On the other hand, PHA is a value-added biochemical, i.e., a potential substitute for fossil fuel plastics.
