Duckweeds for Phytoremediation of Polluted Water

Plants, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 12(3), С. 589 - 589

Опубликована: Янв. 29, 2023

Tiny aquatic plants from the Lemnaceae family, commonly known as duckweeds, are often regarded detrimental to environment because of their ability quickly populate and cover surfaces bodies water. Due rapid vegetative propagation, duckweeds have one fastest growth rates among flowering can accumulate large amounts biomass in relatively short time periods. high yield valuable ease harvest, be used feedstock for biofuels, animal feed, other applications. Thanks efficient absorption nitrogen- phosphate-containing pollutants, play an important role restorative ecology water reservoirs. Moreover, compared species, duckweed species ecotypes demonstrate exceptionally adaptivity a variety environmental factors; indeed, remove convert many contaminants, such nitrogen, into plant biomass. The global distribution tolerance ammonia, heavy metals, stresses major factors highlighting potential use purifying agricultural, municipal, some industrial wastewater. In summary, powerful tool bioremediation that reduce anthropogenic pollution ecosystems prevent eutrophication simple, inexpensive ecologically friendly way. Here we review using phytoremediation several pollutants: mineral nitrogen phosphorus, various organic chemicals, metals.

An Overview of the Impact of Pharmaceuticals on Aquatic Microbial Communities

Antibiotics, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 11(12), С. 1700 - 1700

Опубликована: Ноя. 25, 2022

Pharmaceuticals are present as pollutants in several ecosystems worldwide. Despite the reduced concentrations at which they detected, their negative impact on natural biota constitutes a global concern. The consequences of pharmaceuticals’ presence water sources and food have been evaluated with higher detail for human health. However, although most pharmaceuticals detected environment had not designed to act against microorganisms, it is utmost importance understand environmental native microbiota. Microbial communities can suffer serious from environment, may directly public health ecosystem equilibrium. Among this class pollutants, ones that studied more antibiotics. This work aims provide an overview impacts different biofilms, specifically biofilms aquatic engineered systems. alterations caused biofilm function characteristics, well bacteria antimicrobial tolerance consequently associated risks health, also reviewed. information already available topic, need additional data urges assessment emerging microbial potential impacts.

Pharmaceutically active micropollutants: origin, hazards and removal

Frontiers in Microbiology, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 15

Опубликована: Фев. 14, 2024

Pharmaceuticals, recognized for their life-saving potential, have emerged as a concerning class of micropollutants in the environment. Even at minute concentrations, chronic exposure poses significant threat to ecosystems. Various pharmaceutically active (PhAMP), including antibiotics, analgesics, and hormones, been detected underground waters, surface seawater, sewage treatment plants, soils, activated sludges due absence standardized regulations on pharmaceutical discharge. Prolonged exposureof hospital waste facilities is linked presence antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Conventional water methods prove ineffective, prompting use alternative techniques like photolysis, reverse osmosis, UV-degradation, bio-degradation, nano-filtration. However, commercial implementation faces challenges such incomplete removal, toxic sludge generation, high costs, need skilled personnel. Research gaps include comprehensively identify understand various types micropollutants, investigate long-term ecological impact, develop more sensitive monitoring techniques, explore integrated approaches. Additionally, there gap understanding socio-economic implications pollution efficacy public awareness campaigns. Future research should delve into strategies phagotherapy, vaccines, natural substance substitutes address escalating pollution.
