Abstract Growing environmental concerns and the need to adopt a circular economy have highlighted importance of waste valorization for resource recovery. Microbial consortia-enabled biotechnologies made significant developments in biomanufacturing valuable resources from biomass that serve as suitable alternatives petrochemical-derived products. These microbial consortia-based processes are designed following top-down or bottom-up engineering approach. The approach is classical method uses variables selectively steer an existing consortium achieve target function. While high-throughput sequencing has enabled community characterization, major challenge disentangle complex interactions manipulate structure function accordingly. prior knowledge metabolic pathway possible among partners design engineer synthetic consortia. This strategy offers some control over composition targeted bioprocesses, but challenges remain optimal assembly methods long-term stability. In this review, we present recent advancements, challenges, opportunities further improvement using approaches microbiome engineering. As relatively new concept valorization, review explores consortia, ecological principles optimize efficient conversion. Integration along with modeling predict consortia also highlighted. One-Sentence Summary highlights consortia-driven through describes strategies, tools, unexplored stability such

Elucidating the potential of nitrifying bacteria in mitigating nitrogen pollution and its industrial application

Microsphere, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 2(2), С. 246 - 259

Опубликована: Дек. 25, 2023

Nitrifying bacteria are specialized microorganisms that actively participate in the nitrification process, which involves conversion of ammonia (NH3) into nitrite (NO2-) and subsequently nitrate (NO3-). Extensive human activities such as agriculture, thermal power generation, automobile exhaust have led to an increase amounts greenhouse gases nitrogen pollution soil water. This comprehensive review highlights importance nitrogen-related processes for environmental sustainability role nitrifying combating pollution. The focus current work is a detailed exploration diverse classes their respective roles processes. Furthermore, study explores practical applications different bacteria, extending beyond process. explored potential wastewater treatment, biodegradation micropollutants, treatment municipal solid waste leachate, showcasing versatility these addressing broader challenges.
