The purpose of this study was to improve the characterization of MPs in complex biosolid matrices by optimizing sample preparation for morphological and chemical analyses with different spectroscopic techniques. We compared extraction procedures involving Fenton oxidation (F), Fenton plus sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), and Fenton plus cellulase (FE). We performed partial particle sample counting along with a helical shape, corresponding to 56 % of sample area, and total particle counting. Chemical characterization was performed using sub-micron optical-photothermal infrared (O-PTIR) spectroscopy, and the results were compared with those obtained via commonly employed Raman and Fourier transform infrared absorption microspectroscopy technique (µ-FTIR). Our FE protocol yielded a slightly higher total sample mass removal (97 %±0.3 %) compared to other pre-treatment methods. No significant difference was observed in the total MPs count between the two approaches, indicating a homogeneous distribution across the filter and supporting reliable quantification using only half the filter in the helical method. O-PTIR's high spatial resolution (down to 0.5 µm) and absence of spectral artefacts compared to Raman and µ-FTIR enabled accurate identification of fine fibers (2 µm wide) and small particles (∼5 µm). Single-frequency O-PTIR imaging revealed well-defined particles clearly separated from their surroundings, highlighting the technique's potential for particle identification. The findings highlight the need to combine effective sample pre-treatment with high-resolution chemical analysis to improve understanding of plastic fate in the environment and supporting future policy development or regulatory updates on plastic content in biosolids.</p>","PeriodicalId":94082,"journal":{"name":"Journal of hazardous materials","volume":"496 ","pages":"139448"},"PeriodicalIF":11.3,"publicationDate":"2025-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144791131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In recent years, it was shown that the engineered enzyme FAST-PETase can efficiently catalyze the hydrolysis of PET into monomers; however, large-scale production and low-cost application of this enzyme remain challenging. In this study, we successfully produced FAST-PETase at a large scale using the silk gland expression system of Bombyx mori and integrated an optimized FAST-PETase gene into the B. mori genome using genetic engineering technology. The content of recombinant FAST-PETase reached 53.3 mg per gram of cocoon weight, and approximately 22 % of which can be extracted using mild extraction conditions. The analysis revealed that rFAST-PETase, when extracted from cocoon crude extracts, efficiently and completely hydrolyzes PET plastics into terephthalic acid (TPA) and ethylene glycol (EG). Notably, the extraction method did not affect the spinning properties of the silk. Furthermore, a unique N-glycosylation modification of rFAST-PETase in the silkworm system was identified, which led to a significant enhancement in its thermostability. In comparison with conventional hydrolysis strategies for PET plastics, the cost of the proposed method is reduced by a minimum of 72 %, and the TPA hydrolysis product with 99 % purity can be recycled through an acid precipitation method.

The HOCl/ClO^- activation mechanisms in the Vis/BiVO₄/chlorine process was investigated through use of of oxalate (hole (h_VB⁺) quencher) or Cu²⁺ (electron (e_CB^-) shuttle). e_CB^- and superoxide radicals (O₂^•-) activates HOCl to form hydroxyl radicals (HO•) (one-electron transfer pathways) while only reduces ClO^- to Cl^- (two-electron transfer pathways).

The reactions between h_VB⁺ and chlorine are both chlorine species- and valance band (VB) potential-dependent. h_VB⁺ activates both HOCl and ClO^- to form ClO•. While at pH 5.0, the more positive VB potential of BiVO₄ than the E°(Cl⁺/HOCl) enables h_VB⁺ to oxidize HOCl to HO• and Cl⁺, which reacts rapidly with H₂O to regenerate HOCl.

This study systematically investigates the influence of B. subtilis cells, spores, extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), and bentonite colloids (BC) on Eu(III) transport in quartz sand. Integrating advanced microscopy, spectroscopy, and machine learning, we reveal that Eu(III) mobility is governed by intricate interactions among bacterial activity, spores, EPS, and BC.

Under neutral pH/low ionic strength conditions, B. subtilis cells and spores enhanced Eu(III) transport by 63 %, whereas acidic pH/high ionic strength conditions reduced transport by 30 % for cells, with spores maintaining elevated mobility. EPS removal increased both bacterial mobility and Eu(III) transport efficiency by 20 %, particularly under acidic conditions. While B. subtilis elevated Eu(III) mobility by 63 %, BC attenuated this effect by 13 %, primarily through the formation of BC-B. subtilis-Eu(III) ternary pseudo-colloids.

Health risks were evaluated with quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) method. Results revealed distinct microbial patterns.

However, this field faces challenges such as significant Hg loss and unstable culture systems, which impede accurate assessment of these processes. This study aims to develop a reliable low-Hg-loss cultivation protocol for Hg methylation by methanogens, enabling a more accurate evaluation of their contribution to MeHg production. Our findings demonstrate that redox potential is a critical factor for Hg methylation, affecting Hg speciation and microbial growth.
