Nitrification and denitrification processes play crucial roles in biological nitrogen removal in water treatment systems. The ammonia oxidation in nitrification is the rate-limiting process, which converts low-valent ammonia-nitrogen into high-valent ...

Prebiotic aqueous reactions catalyzed by native nickel without hydrogen
Serpentinizing (H2‐producing) hydrothermal vents are candidate environments for metabolic origin. They generate highly reducing conditions that convert CO2 to formate and methane in abiotic reactions resembling reactions of the acetyl‐CoA pathway of CO2 fixation. They also contain natural catalysts. Native nickel (Ni0), like Fe0, Co0, and their alloys,

Ammonia-oxidizing archaea and bacteria are structured by geography [PDF]
Introduction Biological soil crusts (BSCs) can dominate surface cover in dry lands worldwide, playing an integral role in arid land biogeochemistry, particularly in N fertilization through fixation and cycling.

Ammonia‐oxidizing archaea: important players in paddy rhizosphere soil? [PDF]
Summary The diversity (richness and community composition) of ammonia‐oxidizing archaea (AOA) and bacteria (AOB) in paddy soil with different nitrogen (N) fertilizer amendments for 5 weeks were investigated using quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction, denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) jand ...

Microbial Community Restructuring Under Zinc Oxide Nanoparticle Stress in Membrane Bioreactors
Long‐term ZnO nanoparticle exposure induced extracellular stress responses and restructured microbial communities, with reduced taxonomic and phylogenetic richness and loss of key nitrogen‐transforming taxa. These ecological changes were accompanied by impaired nitrification, demonstrating that prolonged ZnO exposure can compromise the functional ...

Ecophysiological Characterization of Ammonia-Oxidizing Archaea and Bacteria from Freshwater [PDF]
ABSTRACT Aerobic biological ammonia oxidation is carried out by two groups of microorganisms, ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and the recently discovered ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA). Here we present a study using cultivation-based methods to investigate the differences in growth of three AOA cultures and one AOB culture ...

Dung beetles suppressed cumulative methane flux from cattle dung by 85% and reduced total greenhouse gas emissions by 18%. Beetle activity accelerated initial CO2 release but did not alter total cumulative flux. N2O and NH3 fluxes were transient and not consistently driven by beetle presence.

The Role of Iron‐Hyponitrite Intermediates in Biology and Insights From Synthetic Model Complexes
Despite the difference in active site architecture, NO reduction by different NOR enzymes is expected to be linked by a common intermediate: hyponitrite (N2O22−). However, experimentally, very little is known about the coordination chemistry of iron with hyponitrite and the expected Fe‐hyponitrite intermediates.

A laboratory incubation experiment was conducted to examine the effects of 3,4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate (DMPP) on the transformation of urea-N and associated microbial communities in a low-fertility brown soil. The soil was supplied with urea at 180 kg
