Abstract In this study, a novel photocatalytic fuel cell electro‐Fenton (PFC‐EF) system was constructed using g‐C 3 N 4 @N‐TNA and Ag/CNT@CF as electrodes. The composition, structure, morphology of the electrodes were obtained. @N‐TNA, with its 2.37 eV band gap 100 mV photovoltage, has excellent excitation properties for sunlight. abundant pores, CNT 3D nanostructures, Ag crystals on surface can improve efficiency. A comparative study rhodamine B (RhB) degradation performed in system. It been shown that electric fields greatly enhance oxidation efficiency both anode photocatalysis cathode process. Under optimal conditions, RhB be completely removed by photoelectro‐Fenton (PEF) energy consumption PEF electrical per order (EE/O) is only 9.2 kWh/m ·order, which 16.5% EF 2.2% PFC‐EF mineralization current (MCE) reached 93.3% 2‐h reaction. Therefore, advantage saving energy. kinetic analysis shows removal follows first‐order law, reaction rate constant reaches 0.1304 min −1 , approximately 5.2 times larger 4.0 than processes, respectively. coupling multimechanism an field enhances photoelectron migration, loading improves H 2 O generation, UV light coupled promotes hydroxyl radical (٠OH) nanoconfinement effect CNTs ٠OH accumulation favor degradation. Practitioner Points Novel constructed. Multiple mechanisms UV/H2O2, UV/Fenton photo‐electro‐Fenton have revealed.

The cultivation of largemouth bass ( Micropterus salmoides ), a species significant economic value in aquaculture, has experienced notable growth recently. However, the deterioration water quality seriously affects metabolic responses M. . While compound microbial agent (CMA) is widely utilized for ecological rehabilitation and filtration, its application not been reported. Here, based on physio-biochemical tests 16S rRNA sequencing, we investigated effects CMA (yeast, Bacillus subtilis , lactic acid bacteria) within recirculating aquaculture system, along with physiological indices gut microbiota Compared to control single (yeast), treatment improved by improving dissolved oxygen delaying increase pH, total nitrogen, phosphorus, ammonia nitrite. 16s gene sequencing revealed that treated exhibited elevated levels chao1, Shannon, Pd, larger population dominant bacterial. Besides, higher values ACE, OTU level, lower Simpson index were found samples, suggesting enhanced richness diversity Furthermore, hindered generation proliferation harmful bacteria, such as Mycoplasma mobile 163K Erysipelotrichaceae family, which was associated antioxidant enzymatic activity decreased MDA level both serum liver. These findings shed light essential roles culturing introduce an innovative approach enhance aquatic environment.

Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) continue to be detected in water sources with far-reaching negative impacts, removing these emerging contaminants has become a top priority. Conventional treatment technologies make it difficult effectively remove contaminants. As an advanced oxidation technology, ozone-catalyzed attracted attention for its efficient degradation of PPCPs. This paper reviews the basic principles process Compared homogeneous catalytic ozonation multiphase technology advantages easy recycling, lower cost treatment, higher activity, improved mineralization organic matter, etc., catalysts improve removal efficiency PPCPs by promoting decomposition ozone produce reactive oxygen species (ROS). also discusses typical examples processes, including gemfibrozil(GMF), ibuprofen (IBP), ciprofloxacin (CIP). Finally, limitations existing studies future research directions are presented.
