The difference of sequencing batch biofilm reactor (SBBR) performance and nitrogen transformation mechanism which caused by four different influent patterns were researched. Through variance analysis of SBBR performance, microbial community structure and nitrogen transformation, the results indicated that, on the one hand the dispersed influent pattern displayed higher anti-load ability than the centralized one, under the same efficiency, COD and ammonia load of the dispersed M4 reached 2540 mg x (L x d)(-1) and 540 mg x (L x d)(-1) respectively compared with 2000 mg x (L x d)(-1) and 420 mg x (L x d)(-1) by the centralized M1; on the other hand, considering the dispersed influent pattern, the closer influent mood was to the cycle mood of operation, the higher the nitrogen transformation efficiency was, which finally led residual nitrogen concentration declined.

This study explores highly active nitride-based g-CN/CuO photocatalysts for CO photoconversion by synthesizing them through high-pressure torsion (HPT) straining. Data indicate that increasing the applied strain under high pressure promotes vacancy formation and improves the electronic interaction at the g-CN/CuO interphases, enabling superior charge separation and extended light absorption. The generation of dual vacancies of oxygen and nitrogen is verified by electron paramagnetic resonance and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopic methods, and the generation of a type-II heterojunction is confirmed by band structure analysis.

Estuarine plumes (EPs) are recognized as critical drivers of dissolved organic matter (DOM) heterogeneity in coastal zones, primarily by inducing phytoplankton blooms and subsequent bottom-water dissolved oxygen (DO) depletion. However, the specific mechanisms governing the EP-driven transformations of DOM molecular composition and biogeochemical fate remain elusive. Here, we integrated optical spectroscopy and Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry to characterize the molecular signatures of DOM and their biogeochemical transformations within EP-influenced bottom waters of the Pearl River Estuary.

Rapidly expanding nascent ecosystems at glacier forefields under climate warming dramatically enhance the terrestrial carbon (C) sink. Microbial C fixation and degradation, closely implicated in nitrogen (N) transformation and plant-soil-microbe interactions, significantly regulate soil C accumulation. However, how shifts in microbial functional potential impact soil C sequestration during vegetation succession remains unclear.

Transition metal-catalyzed "cut-and-sew" reactions offer an efficient approach to construct bridged and fused scaffolds; however, the substrates have been primarily restricted to cyclic ketones and activated cyclopropanes. Here we report the first cut-and-sew transformation between β-lactams and alkenes/alkynes via C-C bond activation. Diverse bridged and fused nitrogen-heterocycles are prepared using this method with good functional group tolerance.

Introduction: Peatlands store up to a third of global soil carbon, and in high latitudes their litter inputs are increasing and changing in composition under climate change. Although litter significantly influences peatland carbon and nutrient dynamics by changing the overall lability of peatland organic matter, the physicochemical mechanisms of this impact-and thus its full scope-remain poorly understood.
Methods: We applied multimodal metabolomics (UPLC-HRMS, H NMR) paired with C Stable Isotope-Assisted Metabolomics (SIAM) to track litter carbon and its potential priming effects on both existing soil organic matter and carbon gas emissions.
