Although N-methyl pyrrolidone (NMP) is biodegradable, normal activated sludge exhibits poor NMP biodegradation unless it is acclimated with NMP for an extended time. In this work, glucose-acclimated biomass (GAB) was acclimated with NMP for over two months to obtain NMP-acclimated biomass (NAB). NAB was superior to GAB for NMP biodegradation, and this correlated to higher abundances of the genera Mycobacterium, Amaricoccus, and Thauera in NAB. However, when GAB was bioaugmented with Methylobacterium organophilum or Sphingomonas melonis, which were isolated from NAB based on their growth on NAB, the bioaugmented GAB immediately showed rapid biodegradation of NMP. M. organophilum was superior to S. melonis for accelerating NMP biodegradation, and the acceleration of NMP biodegradation was proportional to the mass of M. organophilum or S. melonis added. A key finding was that the limiting step for NMP mineralization was biodegradation of monomethylamine, an NMP-biodegradation intermediate that also is inhibitory. Bioaugmenting M. organophilum and S. melonis accelerated NMP biodegradation by enhancing monomethylamine removal, with M. organophilum being superior to S. melonis. The documented rapid impact of bioaugmentation can make it especially valuable in response to an input of a toxicant. © 2023, The Authors. All rights reserved.

Clogging of constructed wetlands (CWs) caused by extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) secreted by microorganisms is a serious challenge to the long-term stable operation of CWs. This study provided a comprehensive and in-depth study of the hydraulic evaluation and metabolic processes of loach (Misgurnus anguillicaudatus) in mitigating clogging. The results showed that loach effectively reduced the content of clogging in the substrate layer and improved the hydraulic performance of the system. The loach system increased by 11.52%, 25.11%, and 28.15% of the initial porosity in the sand layer, and by 15.49%, 15.85%, and 13.83% of the initial porosity in the gravel layer. The tracer study showed that loach increased the actual and theoretical hydraulic retention time (HRT), improved the connectivity between different layers, and reduced the "dead zone" area of the system. The analysis of EPS components revealed that the daily EPS removal amount of each loach was 36.64 mg L-1, in which S-EPS, LB-EPS, and TB-EPS were 21.80, 8.02, and 6.82 mg L-1d-1, respectively. The direct feeding and the indirect coordination with microorganisms effectively reduced the contents of polysaccharides and proteins in EPS, and increased the proportion of humic acid and nucleic acid. The EEM-PARAFAC analysis also confirmed that loach decreased tyrosine and tryptophan fluorophores groups and reduced the proportion of protein or peptide substances in macromolecules in EPS. In addition, loach could increase the activities of dehydrogenase, fluorescein diacetate, and the relative abundance of chlorobiaceae in the sand layer, which was conducive to the hydrolysis of clogging matters with the metabolic activity of microorganisms. Loach increased the relative abundance of denitrifying microorganisms such as Aeromonadaceae, Rhodocyclaceae, and Hydrogenophilaceae in the gravel layer, which enhanced the denitrification process of the system and was conducive to the transformation of pollutants and t

Coal reservoir is a typical double pore medium, and the magnitude of its permeability is controlled by the parameters of the fracture pore structure. However, the law about the effect of fracture-pore parameters on permeability is not clear yet. Based on the fractal geometry theory, the fracture-pore morphology of coal body is characterized by tree bifurcation network and tortuous capillary bundle. This study also established a coal gas seepage flow model based on the fracture-pore fractal structure characteristics. The model discusses the influence of coal structure parameters, different levels of original coal seam stress, and gas pressure on the gas seepage characteristics. Finally, the applicability of the model was evaluated by gas radial seepage experiment. It is shown that the gas permeability in the model is a function of fractal dimensions and structural parameters, and based on the sensitivity analysis of each parameter in the model, it is found that the tree diameter ratio β and length ratio γ of the bifurcation network have a significant impact on the permeability. When β increases from 0.1 to 0.9, the model permeability increases by 12 orders of magnitude. However, changes in the characteristic parameters of the pore structure have little effect on gas permeability. For dual porous media such as coal, the permeability of the fracture network dominates the overall permeability of the model, and small changes in the geometric structure of the fracture bifurcation network can lead to significant changes in permeability. The construction of this theoretical model provides a reliable basis for further improving coal-rock porous medium structure seepage models, as well as to better characterize the effect of gas drainage. © 2023, The Authors.

Electrochemical batteries define the contraption stores electricity in the direct form of chemical energy with high efficiency. If the energy conversion process can be reversed, namely the input and output of electricity both being permitted, the batteries are termed rechargeable batteries or also secondary batteries accordingly [1]. These decades have witnessed the rapid development of batteries because of the demands for transportation of information and mass in the mobile area, and stationary storage for the implementation of renewable energy technologies.

This study proposes a multiscale model combining molecular simulation and the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) to explore gas flow behaviors with multiple transport mechanisms in nanoporous media of shale matrix. The gas adsorption characteristics in shale nanopores are first investigated by molecular simulations, which are then integrated and upscaled into the LBM model through a local adsorption density parameter. In order to adapt to high Knudsen number and nanoporous shale matrix, a multiple-relaxation-time pore-scale LBM model with a regularization procedure is developed. The combination of bounce-back and full diffusive boundary condition is adopted to take account of gas slippage and surface diffusion induced by gas adsorption. Molecular simulation results at the atomic scale show that gas adsorption behaviors are greatly affected by the pressure and pore size of the shale organic nanopore. At the pore scale, the gas transport behaviors with multiple transport mechanisms in nanoporous shale matrix are explored by the developed multiscale model. Simulation results indicate that pressure exhibits more significant influences on the transport behaviors of shale gas than temperature does. Compared with porosity, the average pore size of nanoporous shale matrix plays a more significant role in determining the apparent permeability of gas transport. The roles of the gas adsorption layer and surface diffusion in shale gas transport are discussed. It is observed that under low pressure, the gas adsorption layer has a positive influence on gas transport in shale matrix due to the strong surface diffusion effect. The nanoporous structure with the anisotropy characteristic parallel to the flow direction can enhance gas transport in shale matrix. The obtained results may provide underlying and comprehensive understanding of gas flow behaviors considering multiple transport mechanisms in shale matrix. Also, the proposed multiscale model can be considered as a powerful tool t

Nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) coupled denitrification is considered the typical abiotic-biotic synergistic process, but its underlying electron transfer mechanism remains unclear. Herein, we performed a heavy water labeling single-cell Raman spectroscopy (D 2 O-SCRS) for in-situ and dynamic characterization of the Cytochrome c-mediated electron transfer process with coexisting nZVI and a model denitrifying bacterium. Interestingly, the nZVI resulted in a strong synergistic effect with a high denitrification efficiency of 99.8% (~100 mg L -1 NO 3 -N), approximately 18 and 12-fold than those of pure nZVI (5.4%) and model bacterium (8.3%), respectively. The D 2 O-SCRS approach revealed the reduced Cytochrome c (Cyt c) facilitated electron transfer to enzymes and is responsible for NO 2 - →NO, NO→N 2 O, and N 2 O→N 2 reactions in the denitrification respiratory chain, thus accelerating the occurrence of synergistic effects. Furthermore, the decreased metabolic activity contributed to higher ATP availability for nitrate reduction, thereby favoring denitrification. The metatranscriptomic analysis confirmed that both up-regulated genes encoding Cyt c reductase and the down-regulated Cyt c oxidase promoted the generation of reduced Cyt c, corresponding well with the D 2 O-SCRS results. Additionally, the elevated complex I, complex III, and excess NAD+ ensured a large number of electrons participated in the respiratory chain. This study deepened the understanding of the biotic-abiotic synergistic mechanism and provided a new method to in-situ characterize the electron transfer process at a single-cell level. © 2022, The Authors.

Functional polyamides have attracted much attention among researchers owing to the amide structure is widely found among naturally occurring peptides and proteins. In this study, the novel cationic biopolyamides (C-bioPAs) with excellent biocompatibility are prepared and proposed as removal agents for perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from water. Renewable bisfuran-based functional diacid/diamine monomers were employed to prepare a reactive polyamide with tertiary amine pendant groups through polycondensation. Subsequently, the precursor underwent quaternization modification with different alkyl bromides to obtain a series of C-bioPAs. The chemical structure of all newly prepared C-bioPAs was characterized using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The thermal stability of C-bioPAs was assessed by using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The C-bioPAs effectively remove PFAS from water, achieving a maximum removal efficiency of 99.8 %, rapid initial sorption rates (>2.964 mmol g-1h−1), and short equilibrium times ( © 2025 Elsevier B.V.

A case study on a large geotextile mat cofferdam combined with steel sheet piles was conducted using field testing and numerical simulation to optimize the design and assess its performance. The failure mechanism and overall stability were investigated by numerical simulation, considering potential influence factors, including pile length, width ratio (W2/W1), water level, and excavation depth. The width ratio was identified as a critical influencing factor. Specifically, an optimized ratio of W2/W1=0.6 demonstrated the best overall performance. When the steel sheet pile intersects the potential failure surface, the stability improvement is most significant, particularly with a length of 15 m in the current case. Field tests were employed to examine the performance of the optimized cofferdam design. Water level fluctuations, surface displacements, and both horizontal and vertical displacements at various depths were monitored to assess the cofferdam's behavior. Results from both numerical simulations and field monitoring conclusively affirm the cofferdam's capability to meet stringent safety criterion during the construction and operational phases. This work fills gaps in standardization of large geotextile mat cofferdam design by providing guidance on geometric configuration, reinforcement integration, and soft soil risk management, thereby advancing engineering practices for similar projects.
