TL;DR: The metagenomic analysis showed that the activated sludge and the digested sludge exhibited different microbial communities and changes in the types and occurrence of ARGs and MGEs, and indicated that some environmental bacteria might be potential hosts of multiple ARGs.

TL;DR: Despite the highly adsorption efficiency, the significant improvement of Cr(VI) reduction by chitosan-Fe(III) complex compared with normal crosslinked chitoan has been demonstrated and a possible process and mechanism for highly efficient detoxification of Cr

TL;DR: The added biochar not only favors the anaerobic sludge granulation working as an inert core, but also facilitates the selective enrichment of potential direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) partners such as Methanothrix and Geobacter spp.

TL;DR: It was found that the generation of ROS, antioxidant response, and growth inhibition rate in Scenedesmus obliquus were all (R)-enantiomer preferentially induced, implying that ROS play a primary role in chemical contaminant toxicity, and interactions between contaminants can tune the enantioselectivity of chiral herbicides.

TL;DR: Investigation of the effect of magnetite addition on anaerobic digestion performance during start-up and starvation recovery stages demonstrated that addition of conductive materials like magnetite could improve the stability and restorability of AD process efficiently.
