Synergetic Interactions of Nanoscale Zero-Valent Iron (nZVI) and Anaerobic Bacteria in Groundwater Remediation: A Review

open access: yesEurasian Journal of Science and Engineering, 2022
During the last century, large scale production of halogenated organic compounds and heavy metals, specifically by industrial processes, and the inappropriate management of those products caused a wide spreading of a variety of hazardous contaminants ...

Validation of an integrative methodology to assess and monitor reductive dechlorination of chlorinated ethenes in contaminated aquifers

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2016
Bioremediation of tetra-and trichloroethene-contaminated aquifers is frequently hampered due to incomplete dechlorination to the more toxic dichloroethene (DCE) and vinyl chloride (VC), indicating insufficient knowledge about the biological mechanisms ...

Synergistic mechanism of modified nZVI and Citrobacter reshaping sludge microbiome drives co-removal of HBCD and nutrients in municipal wastewater

open access: yesEnvironmental Chemistry and Ecotoxicology
Hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD), a persistent and toxic brominated flame retardant, poses severe ecological and health risks due to its bioaccumulation and endocrine-disrupting effects.

Unveiling organohalide respiration potential in River Nile sediments via 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing of endogenous bacterial communities

open access: yesBMC Microbiology
Background Industrial waste, agricultural runoff and untreated sewage contaminate the Nile, leaving a toxic legacy in its sediments. Organohalides-polluted sediment in particular poses serious public health risks and detrimental effects on aquatic life ...
