Naphthenic acids (NAs) can be syntrophically metabolized by indigenous microbial communities in pristine sediments beneath oil sands tailings ponds. Syntrophy is an essential determinant of the microbial interactome, however, the interactome network in anaerobic NAs-degrading consortia has not been previously addressed due to complexity and resista...

The Fenton reaction is an effective advanced oxidation process occurring in nature and applied in engineering processes toward the degradation of harmful substances, including contaminants of emerging concern. The traditional Fenton application can be remarkably improved by using iron complexes with organic ligands, which allow for the degradation ...

The impact of oxytetracycline (OTC) exposure in water on the fish still remains unclear. We hypothesized OTC exposure could alter fish gut microbiome and affect thyroid hormone and serotonin homeostasis in the brain via "chemical-gut-brain" axis. Here, ∼2-month-old juvenile zebrafish (Danio rerio) was exposed to two concentrations of OTC (1 and 100...

Cobalt ferrite CoFe2O4 catalyst was fabricated and systematically investigated as an efficient peroxymonosulfate (PMS, HSO5-) activator for the degradation of recalcitrant organic contaminants (ROCs) in water treatment. Both SO4- and OH on the surface of catalyst were unveiled to be primarily responsible for bisphenol A (BPA) degradation by a compr...

Recently, oxidative desulfurization (ODS) is favoured by researchers because it is based on mild conditions and does not consume hydrogen. However, the preparation process of catalyst for ODS was not green or costly, which limits its further industrial applications. In this study, a facile route has been explored to grow the mesoporous MoO3/SiO2 na...

Tetracycline and Cr(VI) as non-biodegradable environmental contaminants have attracted increasing attention because of their chronic toxicity. In this regard, the environmentally friendly Z-scheme photocatalytic decontamination system has been widely used for contaminant treatment. Herein, a novel 3D Z-scheme α-FeOOH/FeS2 composite photocatalyst wa...

Microplastics (MPs) have become a severe concern in marine environment worldwide. Micro-polystyrene particles have been proved to accumulate in vivo and caused disorders of digestion, antioxidant system, immunity and intestinal microflora, but little is known about the effects of nano-polystyrene (nano-PS). In order to understand response mechanism...

A two-stage desalination process was developed to achieve zero liquid discharge (ZLD) of flue gas desulfurization (FGD) wastewater by precipitating chloride as Friedel's salt. Influential factors for Friedel's salt precipitation, including dosage, reaction time, concentration of sulfate, were investigate by batch tests. Batch results showed that at...

To synthesize covalent organic framework (COF) via irreversible reactions is more challenging than by reversible ones. In this work, microwave-assisted synthesis is used to facilitate the nucleophilic substitution of 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-4-pyridinecarbonitrile with 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexahydroxy triphenylene. The dioxin-linked COF, named TH-COF, was effi...

Stacked graphene oxide (GO) nano-sheets with plentiful nanopores incorporated onto polymeric membrane are promising for water purification. However, maintaining high water permeability without sacrificing separation efficiency remains a challenge. Delamination of the GO layer from the membrane surface is another bottleneck affecting the efficiency ...
