Treatment of chromium(VI) solutions in a pilot-scale bioreactor through a biofilm of arthrobacter viscosus supported on GAC [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The aim of this work is to evaluate the applicability of a biofilm to the removal of chromium in solution, at a pilot scale. The effect of the initial concentration of metal on the biosorption behavior of an Arthrobacter viscosus biofilm supported on ...

Degradation of Dyes by Fungi: A Bibliometric Study and Bibliographic Review

open access: yesEnvironmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 3, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT The degradation of dyes from textile effluents is considered a major challenge due to their high potential for environmental contamination and health risks due to their toxicity. In this sense, the use of fungi for the degradation of these compounds is reported in the literature as an ecological alternative with great potential.

Investigating the Fate of Geosmin on Microalgal Cells: A Comprehensive Study on Adsorption and Desorption Processes

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Microalgal biomass has emerged as a valuable resource in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), due to its natural capacity to recover nutrients. In addition, microalgae are potential source of fish‐feed in the aquaculture industry. However, its application in RAS needs careful consideration, as microalgae can interact with geosmin, a common

Sustainable Pretreatment of Food Waste for Enhanced Bioethanol Production and Improved Waste Management: A Review

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
The graphical abstract illustrates the conversion of food waste biomass into bioethanol through integrated pretreatment strategies. Physical (mechanical, thermal, sonication), chemical (alkali, acidic, oxidative/ROS), and biological (fungal, bacterial, enzymatic) pretreatments enhance biomass breakdown.

Biomass‐Derived Carbon Photocatalysts for Organic Pollutant Degradation: Strategies and Perspectives

open access: yesCarbon Neutralization, Volume 5, Issue 1, January 2026.
Recent advances in biomass‐derived carbon photocatalysts are highlighted, focusing on synthesis, surface engineering, and mechanisms such as ROS generation and band‐gap tuning. Heteroatom doping, heterojunctions, and hybrid architectures boost visible‐light activity, while scalability and stability challenges are addressed for practical environmental ...

The role of Arthrobacter viscosus in the removal of Pb(II) from aqueous solutions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The aim of this paper was to establish the optimum parameters for the biosorption of Pb(II) by dead and living Arthrobacter viscosus biomass from aqueous solution. It was found that at an initial pH of 4 and 26 °C, the dead biomass was able to remove 97%

Uranium and Neptunium Accumulation by the Byssus of Mytilus galloprovincialis

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, Volume 29, Issue 1, January 1, 2026.
Investigation of uranyl(VI) and neptunyl(V) uptake in mussel's byssus by combining in vivo bioaccumulation with ex vivo isotherms. Data highlight the role of DOPA‐rich mfp proteins in binding both actinyl cations and partial Np(V) reduction. Such data link molecular interactions to radionuclide uptake in the framework of marine radioecology.
