Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a waste-to-energy strategy that leverages natural microbiological processes. It increasingly used in farms to treat manure, resulting biogas for energy production and digestate as fertiliser. However, animal manure often contains antibiotic (AB) residues, raising concerns about their impact on AD efficiency potential spread through use. This multidisciplinary study evaluated the effects of an AB mixture (enrofloxacin, ciprofloxacin sulfamethoxazole) CH4 production, microbial community (Fungi, Bacteria Archaea) dynamics resistance gene (ARG) presence. The experiment cattle manure/digestate ratio 1:35, typical real digesters, with concentrations set at low (2.5 mg kg−1 each) high (7.5 levels. ABs affected cumulative (ranging from 5939 6464 mL) only highest concentration. After 51 days, sulfamethoxazole reached residual levels, while enrofloxacin were partially degraded (<50%), but ARGs significantly reduced. community, particularly prokaryotes, exhibited resilience, maintaining efficient production. Overall findings strongly suggest effective treatment producing good fertiliser, also reducing ARG content well mitigating emissions into atmosphere.

In this study, we investigate the pollution status in impacted seawaters and sediments of coastal areas region Thessaly, central Greece, following Storm Daniel extreme flood event September 2023, a phenomenon classified as deadliest Mediterranean tropical-like cyclone recorded history one costliest cyclones beyond North Atlantic. For this, an ultra high-performance liquid-chromatography-based wide-scope target screening more than 2300 LC-amenable emerging contaminants (ECs) was carried out utilizing technique TIMS-QTOF-MS. Our results highlight fact that floodwater runoff resulted extensive transportation terrestrial derived material from major transport plant protection products, pharmaceuticals, including even illicit drugs, surfactants, industrial chemicals, per- polyfluorinated alkyl compounds (PFAS) at sea, result overflowing local wastewater treatment plants destruction agricultural, industrial, port facilities. Overall, alteration classification determined ECs most importantly study area, with potential implications for their environmental quality status.
