TL;DR: The biodegradation behaviors of three BPs, namely BPA, BPF and BPS, in seawater were investigated using TOC Handai and river (sea) die-away methods, which are both a kind of river-die-away test.

TL;DR: Fermentation modes and microorganisms related to two typical free-floating aquatic plants, water hyacinth and water lettuce, were investigated for their use in ethanol production and found that water lettuce had slightly higher starch contents and lower contents of cellulose and hemicellulose.

TL;DR: Results suggest that the Actinomyces/Thermomonospora and Ralstonia/Shewanella were contributors for hydrolyzation and degradation of food waste into volatile fatty acids and Methanosarcina and Methanobrevibacter/Methanobacterium were, respectively, possible main contributors for methane production from acetate and H2 plus CO2.

TL;DR: A flow-through constructed wetland (CW) has provided advanced treatment of wastewater with a complex matrix from a metal-processing plant as mentioned in this paper, which was planted with aquatic plants such as Acorus gramineus, Cyperus alternifolius L, Iris pseudacorus, Lythrum anceps, Myosotis scorpioides, Phyla nodiflora L, and Zantedeschia aethiopica.

TL;DR: In this paper, a 2.2-l bioreactor was constructed to investigate their applicability for recovery of soluble selenium from industrial wastewater, where granular sludge of an up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) was seeded to a UASB-type reactor and a suspended sludge bed reactor.
