Waste to Hydrogen: Transforming Food Waste Into Biohythane (Bio‐H2 + Bio‐CH4) in a Two‐Stage Reactor With the Aid of a Metal‐Ion Catalyst

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 7, Page 3388-3421, July 2026.
This study demonstrates a two‐stage catalytic bioreactor system that converts real food waste into high‐purity biohydrogen and biohythane. In Stage‐1, an enriched Clostridium thermocellum culture combined with Ni2+─Fe2+ bimetallic catalysis enhances hydrolysis efficiency and hydrogenase activity, resulting in a 77% increase in H2 yield and 75.8% purity

Impact on nitrifiers of full-scale bioaugmentation [PDF]

Water Science and Technology, 2017
AbstractNitrifiers are the slowest growing bacteria used in conventional biological wastewater treatment. Furthermore, their growth rate is seriously hampered by low temperature. As a result, the volume needed for nitrification dominates the volume of the biological reactors at a wastewater treatment plant.

Horizontal Gene Transfer and Genome Rearrangements Shape Bacterial Adaptation for Bioremediation

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 7, July 2026.
Exposure to xenobiotics triggers genome evolution and horizontal gene transfer (HGT), driving the acquisition of novel catabolic functions. These genomic adaptations provide a competitive fitness advantage that reshapes microbial community structure and enhances biodegradation impact.

Bioaugmentation for bioremediation: the challenge of strain selection [PDF]

Environmental Microbiology, 2005
Summary Despite its long‐term use in bioremediation, bioaugmentation of contaminated sites with microbial cells continues to be a source of controversy within environmental microbiology. This largely results from its notoriously unreliable performance record. In this article, we argue that the unpredictable nature

Bioaugmentation of Soil Contaminated with Zinc [PDF]

Water, Air, & Soil Pollution, 2020
AbstractAn experiment described in this work aimed to establish the role of bioaugmentation in minimizing adverse outcomes of loamy sand contamination with zinc. The bioaugmentation was conducted with the use of microbial strains being most resistant to the action of zinc, which were isolated from the soil contaminated with 1250 mg Zn2+ kg−1 dry matter

Linking Plant and Microbial Traits to Soil Carbon for Reliable and Resilient Bioenergy Systems

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 7, July 2026.
Plant–microbe–soil interactions supporting productivity and soil carbon storage in bioenergy systems. Plants supply organic inputs that sustain microbial communities driving nutrient cycling, carbon stabilization, and soil aggregation. These interactions enhance soil structure and nutrient retention, supporting both biomass productivity and broader ...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal (AMF) communities in sand bars associated with Ipomoea pes‐caprae: a promising strategy for petroleum spill bioremediation in coastal dunes

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 5, July 2026.
Abstract Introduction Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), a class of petroleum‐derived compounds known for causing cellular damage and for their recalcitrant behavior, severely limit effective biodegradation. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) from oil‐contaminated environments can mitigate PAH‐related stress on host plants, highlighting the ...
