The long-term effects of hexavalent chromium on anaerobic ammonium oxidation process: Performance inhibition, hexavalent chromium reduction and unexpected nitrite oxidation.

TLDR
The results showed Anammox performance was not affected at low Cr(VI) concentration, but was severely inhibited at 0.8 mg L-1, and microbial community showed no enrichment of Cr( VI) reducing bacteria and other nitrogen transformation-related bacteria.

Quantitative determination of cavitation formation and sludge flotation in Anammox granules by using a new diffusion-reaction integrated mathematical model.

TL;DR: For quantitative evaluation of the Anammox granules flotation in upflow reactors, an integrated mathematical model was formulated based on the principles that the limitation of substrate diffusion would result in bacterial starvation, lysis and subsequently aiding the formation of cavitation in the inner zone of granules.

Deciphering the microbial and genetic responses of anammox biogranules to the single and joint stress of zinc and tetracycline.

TL;DR: The findings suggested that anammox could be inhibited by metals and antibiotics, but it has the potential to remove nitrogen from wastewaters containing both of them within the concentration threshold.

Visible-light-driven zeolite imidazolate frameworks-8@ZnO composite for heavy metal treatment

TL;DR: Zhang et al. as discussed by the authors developed a facile strategy for constructing ZnO sheets with defective zeolite imidazolate frameworks-8 (ZIF-8) to form visible-light-driven Zif-8@ZnO composite for efficient photoreduction of hexavalent chromium Cr(VI).

Stable carbon isotopic Fractionations associated with inorganic carbon fixation by anaerobic ammonium-oxidizing bacteria

TL;DR: Isotopic analyses of Candidatus “Brocadia anammoxidans,” a chemolithoautotrophic bacterium that anaerobically oxidizes ammonium (anammox), show that it strongly fractionates against 13C; i.e., lipids are depleted by up to 47‰ versus CO2.

Effects of chromium (VI) addition on the activated sludge process

TL;DR: Activated sludge floc size and structure characterization showed that Cr(VI) concentrations higher than 1 mgl(-1) reduced the filaments abundance, causing the appearance of pin-point flocs and free-dispersed bacteria, indicating that heterotrophic microorganisms are less sensitive to Cr( VI) than nitrifiers.
