Currently, microalgae are primarily cultivated in phototrophic processes or in fermenters using glucose as substrate. However, such configurations are often too costly for the majority of potential applications and require improvements. The use of acetate as substrate to enhance biomass productivity and reduce cost and environmental impacts is a promising solution. In a future bio-based economy, acetate can serve as an excellent intermediate to link many industrial facilities, as it can be synthesized using different technologies from renewable resources as CO<sub>2</sub> and waste. This work provides a detailed description of acetate synthesis processes alternative to the conventional methanol carbonylation, including the pros and cons of each: aerobic and anaerobic fermentations; thermochemical treatments; C1 gas fermentation; microbial electrosynthesis and artificial photosynthesis. Additionally, the utilization of acetate as substrate for microalgae growth in mixotrophic and heterotrophic conditions is reviewed, covering key metabolic and engineering aspects (strains, yields, growth rate, inhibition, productivity, process configuration). These aspects serve as guidelines for a rationale design of an algal cultivation process based on acetate as a carbon source. Finally, the review critically assesses the state of the art of coupling of acetate-rich streams with algal biomass production, highlighting the pros and cons and addressing the main knowledge gaps to be filled through future research.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":754,"journal":{"name":"Reviews in Environmental Science and Bio/Technology","volume":"23 1","pages":"93 - 132"},"PeriodicalIF":8.6,"publicationDate":"2024-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11157-024-09682-7.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139918021","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Analysis of stable Cu isotopes can be a powerful tool for tracing the biogeochemical cycling of Cu in plant–soil systems. In this review, we examined the analysis method of stable Cu isotope ratios in plants and soils, and discussed the biogeochemical processes, including redox reactions, mineral dissolution, abiotic and biotic sorption, which fractionate Cu isotopes in plant–soil systems. We also reviewed the variability of the isotopic signature in different plants and plant tissues, as well as different soil types and profiles to discuss the relationship between the biogeochemical transformation of Cu and its isotope fractionation in plant–soil systems. The collected data show that δ<sup>65</sup>Cu values range from − 2.59 to + 1.73‰ in plant–soil systems, and ∆<sup>65</sup>Cu values range from − 1.00 to − 0.11‰ between the plant and soil. The variation in the ∆<sup>65</sup>Cu value between the plant and soil is mainly in response to the different uptake strategies during the acquisition of Cu from soils. Cu isotope analyses are proved to be a suitable technique during the biogeochemical transformation of Cu in plant–soil systems, especially during redox reactions. Ultimately, research challenges and future directions for Cu isotope techniques as a proxy for Cu biogeochemical cycles are also proposed.

Water treatment technologies have been developed over decades for industrial Se removal, but invariably result in Se-laden residuals. These Se-laden residuals represent a significant environmental liability and require careful management, which in turn represents a real, but often overlooked, operating cost. Conversely, Se sees commercial use across many industries and may be considered a vulnerable element in that its economic importance far outweighs its global supply chain stability. Thus, the recovery of Se from non-conventional sources, including solid (electronic waste) and water-based sources (mine tailings, leachates, flue gas desulphurization water, agricultural waste) is desirable. Industrial wastewater represents a unique opportunity to pair wastewater treatment techniques with resource recovery towards circular economy principles. This review highlights conventional and emerging uses of Se, along with an overview of its current supply, and potential sources. Next, a summary of existing and emerging wastewater treatment technologies for Se removal from industrial wastewater streams is provided.

Among them, enzymatic treatment is an emerging technology claimed to provide prospective benefits in terms of efficiency, controllability, and safety. This review illustrates the current state of research focused on enzyme-based approaches for pollutant abatement, specifically on the most critical classes of antibiotics (e.g. tetracyclines, sulfonamides, fluoroquinolones). In addition to providing an overview of the efficiency both in terms of compound removal as well as toxicity reduction, we critically analyze if selected reaction conditions, such as the pH, temperature and water matrix are representative for real-case scenarios. Enzyme immobilization strategies onto inorganic, organic and composite materials are analyzed in terms of their effect on enzyme stability and activity. Their feasibility to be applied in future processes was also evaluated. We found that adequate kinetic description of target compound removal by sufficiently detailed models is still scarce even though it will be key for successful conceptualization of treatment processes. Considering that only a few studies have been conducted at scales above 100 mL, we present the investigated reactor configurations which are at the forefront of further scale-up. The systematic approach presented in this manuscript, which aims to critically evaluate the feasibility to implement enzymatic processes for the removal of antibiotics, can be adapted for other types of recalcitrant compounds targeted by oxidoreductases.

In accordance, future research directions are suggested to deepen the current understanding of the process, develop alternative technologies, and build more efficient WRRFs.

These factors alternate the substrate acquisition-based mechanisms from being transitional/preparatory mechanisms and typically overlooked in the conventional activated sludge process to critical removal mechanisms in the A-stage process. Although the influence of SRT on the A-stage process has been widely studied, this study demonstrated that SRT should be determined according to the influent COD fractionation and mass load. Moreover, it was inferred that a high DO concentration allows for high bioflocculation and storage under controlled SRT and HRT. Further research is needed to better understand the influence of HRT and feast-to-famine retention time ratio.

It shows conventional treatment processes generally result in the partitioning of over 70% of metals from wastewater into primary and secondary sludge. Typically, the order of metal concentrations in sewage sludge is Zn > Cu > Cr ≈ Pb ≈ Ni > Cd. The proportion of these metals that are easily mobilised is highest for Zn and Ni, followed by Cd and Cu, then Pb and Cr. Sludge application to land will lead to elevated metal concentrations, and potentially to short-term changes to the dominant metal species in soils. However, the speciation of sludge-associated metals will change over time due to interactions with plant roots and soil minerals and as organic matter is mineralised by rhizo-microbiome.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":754,"journal":{"name":"Reviews in Environmental Science and Bio/Technology","volume":"22 4","pages":"1037 - 1058"},"PeriodicalIF":14.4,"publicationDate":"2023-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71910052","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
