Article Abstract
A robust modeling approach for predicting heavy metal removal by sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) is currently missing. In this study, four machine learning models were constructed and compared to predict the removal of Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn as individual ions by SRB. The CatBoost model exhibited the best predictive performance across the four subsets, achieving R values of 0.83, 0.91, 0.92, and 0.83 for the Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn models, respectively. Feature analysis revealed that temperature, pH, sulfate concentration, and C/S (the mass ratio of chemical oxygen demand to sulfate) had significant impacts on the outcomes. These features exhibited the most effective metal removal at 35 °C and sulfate concentrations of 1000-1200 mg/L, with variations observed in pH and C/S ratios. This study introduced a new modeling approach for predicting the treatment of metal-containing wastewater by SRB, offering guidance for optimizing operational parameters in the biological sulfidogenic process.

Cadmium (Cd) contamination in water poses a critical global challenge. A novel nanocomposite, montmorillonite (Mt)-supported nanoscale zero-valent iron (Mt-nZVI), synthesized by liquid phase reduction, offers a promising method for effectively removing Cd. The material underwent characterization through various techniques, including X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM).

Recent interest in amendments derived from industrial by-products has highlighted their potential for both resource recycling and heavy metal remediation. Phosphate tailings (PT), primarily dolomite-based solid waste with low utilization rates, offer a promising yet underexplored solution. This study pioneers the thermal modification of PT into a novel amendment, thermally modified phosphate tailings (TPT), to assess its adsorption performance, underlying mechanisms, and effectiveness in immobilizing heavy metals in soils.

Large-scale anaerobic treatment involves a high risk of antibiotic pollution in anaerobically digested (AD) biosolids, which hinders the efficient utilization of farmland AD biosolids. Herein, a process for the in situ removal of antibiotics from AD biosolids using ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium salt dihydrate as the release agent synergized with sodium persulfate oxidation is reported. The developed process was used to remove antibiotics from actual AD biosolids.

Bioremediation offers a sustainable strategy for mitigating heavy metal contamination in soil, but is often constrained by slow removal kinetics, limited uptake efficiency, and high implementation costs. This study investigates dried mycelium membranes, rich in surface-bound proteins and high surface area, as a promising biosorbent for in situ Pb(II) remediation in urban soils. Untreated mycelium membranes buried in soil achieved Pb(II) removal efficiencies of ∼70 % and ∼40 % at initial lead soil concentrations of 100 mg/kg and 1500 mg/kg, respectively, within eight days.

Cadmium (Cd) pollution in rice agroecosystems has become a pressing worldwide environmental challenge. Straw return leads to Cd re-entering the soil, yet the impact of straw removal (SR) on Cd mobility and bioavailability within this system remains unclear. We implemented a four-season field study to evaluate how different SR intensities (NSR: no rice straw was removed; HSR: half of the rice straw was removed; TSR: all the rice straw was removed) influence Cd availability in this system.
