RESUMO

Electrodes with superior stability and sensitivity are highly desirable in advancing the toxicity detection efficiency of microbial fuel cells (MFCs). Herein, boron-doped reduced graphene oxide (B-rGO) was synthesized and utilized as an efficient cathode candidate in an MFCs system for sensitive sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS) detection. Boron doping introduces additional defects and improves the dispersibility and oxygen permeability, thereby enhancing the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) efficiency. The B-rGO-based cathode has demonstrated significantly improved output voltage and power density, marking improvements of 75 % and 58 % over their undoped counterparts, respectively. Furthermore, it also exhibited remarkable linear sensitivity to SDBS concentrations across a broad range (0.2-15 mg/L). Notably, the cathode maintained excellent stability within the test range and showed significant reversibility for SDBS concentrations between 0.2 and 3 mg/L. The highly sensitive and stable B-rGO-based cathode is inspiring for developing more practical and cost-effective toxicant sensing devices.

RESUMO

The simultaneous and efficient removal of various heavy metals from wastewater to satisfy the requirements of zero discharge has been a research hotspot and difficult point. In the laboratory scale (0.5 L), the biocathode microbial electrolytic cells (BCMECs) were constructed with the pre-screened heavy metal-tolerant electroactive bacterial, mainly of the Sphingomonas, Azospira and Cupriavidus. The BCMECs system showed a more satisfactory removal effect for multiple heavy metals and organic pollutants. At the auxiliary voltage of 0.9 V and initial concentration of 20 mg L-1, the removal efficiency of Cu, Pb, Zn, Cd and COD were 98.76 ± 0.32%, 98.01 ± 0.76%, 73.58 ± 4.83%, 84.39 ± 5.95%, 77.55 ± 1.51%, respectively. It was found by various characterization techniques (CV, EIS, XPS et al.) that the constructed biocathode has the function of electrocatalytic reduction of heavy metal ions in a micro-aerobic, film-free environment. The positive shift (0.030-0.229 V) of the initial potential for heavy metal reduction and the absence of a significant increase (< 10 Ω) in the interfacial resistance indicated a reduction in the total free energy of the reduction reaction, which promotes the reaction and improves the efficiency of heavy metal removal. Bacterial community analysis revealed that the Proteobacteria has been dominant in different heavy metal environments. With the increase of heavy metal concentration, Sphingomonas, Azospira and Cupriavidus showed stronger tolerance and became the dominant genus. This study emphasized the important performance of biocathodes and the effective treatment of heavy metal wastewaters by BCMECs and provided a reasonable way for industrial and mining enterprises to innovate the water treatment process.

RESUMO

Electrokinetic-assisted phytoremediation (EKAPR) is a potential technology much affected by the metal species and accessibility to plant roots. In this study, Pb-contaminated red soil was remediated with Sedum plumbizincicola to investigate the changes in soil pH, available nutrients, dissociation and redistribution of Pb under a long-term periodic reversal direct-current electric field. This approach could effectively activate soil P, K, organic matter (OM) and Pb, without significant soil acidification; the effect was positively correlated with applied voltage. Soil Pb can be continuously dissociated, migrated, and tended to accumulate in the middle region. The maximum Pb removal rate in the anodic section of the EKAPR system was 21.4%, and the aggregation rate in middle regions was 14.4%, higher than the available Pb content of the original soil. The Pb desorption in aqueous solution increased significantly with increasing voltage, irrespective of the solution pH. At a voltage of 20 V, the Pb cumulative desorption content reached 91.1 mg kg-1 (pH = 7), which was 2.7 times than that without electric field (33.2 mg kg-1). Compared to original soil (2.80 mg kg-1) and the control (14.54 mg kg-1), the available Pb in the anode section of EKAPR system (20.66 mg kg-1) increased by 637.9% and 42.1%, respectively. These results indicated that except for the indirect influence of soil pH changes, electrodynamics can directly promote the bioavailability and dissociation of Pb at the soil-water interface. This finding provides a new perspective for further studies on the mechanism of Pb speciation evolution and accumulation changes using EKAPR.
