Microbial capacities drive waste stabilization and resource recovery in environmental friendly processes. Depending on the composition of waste, a stress-mediated selection process ensures a scenario that generates a specific enrichment of microbial community. These communities dynamically change over a period of time while keeping the performance through the required utilization capacities. Depending on the environmental conditions, these communities select the appropriate partners so as to maintain the desired functional capacities. However, the complexities of these organizations are difficult to study. Individual member ratios and sharing of genetic intelligence collectively decide the enrichment and survival of these communities. The next-generation sequencing options with the depth of structure and function analysis have emerged as a tool that could provide the finer details of the underlying bioprocesses associated and shared in environmental niches. These tools can help in identification of the key biochemical events and monitoring of expression of associated phenotypes that will support the operation and maintenance of waste management systems. In this chapter, we link genomic tools with process optimization and/or management, which could be applied for decision making and/or upscaling. This review describes both, the aerobic and anaerobic, options of waste utilization process with the microbial community functioning as flocs, granules, or biofilms. There are a number of challenges involved in harnessing the microbial community intelligence with associated functional plasticity for efficient extension of microbial capacities for resource recycling and waste management. Mismanaged wastes could lead to undesired genotypes such as antibiotic/multidrug-resistant microbes.

Selection of appropriate analytical tools to determine the potency, microbial bioactivity and resistance of antibiotics(Journal of Pharmaceutical Analysis)
(Nishant Dafale, Uttam Semwal, Rupak Rajput, G. N. Singh ,6(4),,207-213 ,Year : 2016)

Antibiotics are the chemotherapeutic agents that kill or inhibit the pathogenic microorganisms. Resistance of microorganism to antibiotics is a growing problem around the world due to indiscriminate and irrational use of antibiotics. In order to overcome the resistance problem and to safely use antibiotics, the correct measurement of potency and bioactivity of antibiotics is essential. Microbiological assay and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method are used to quantify the potency of antibiotics. HPLC method is commonly used for the quantification of potency of antibiotics, but unable to determine the bioactivity; whereas microbiological assay estimates both potency and bioactivity of antibiotics. Additionally, bioassay is used to estimate the effective dose against antibiotic resistantmicrobes. Simultaneously, microbiological assay addresses the several parameters such as minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC), minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC), mutation prevention concentration (MPC) and critical concentration (Ccr) which are used to describe the potency in a more informative way. Microbiological assay is a simple, sensitive, precise and cost effective method which gives reproducible results similar to HPLC. However, the HPLC cannot be a complete substitute for microbiological assay and both methods have their own significance to obtain more realistic and precise results.

"Titania Gold Composite: Effect of Illumination on Size of Gold Nanoparticles with Consequent Implication on Photocatalytic Water Splitting"(Russian Journal of Physical Chemistry)
(Girivyankatesh Hippargi, Pratap Reddy Maddigapu, Nitin Labhsetwar, and Sadhana Rayalu, Vol. 11, No. 6,p. 1002–1011. ,Year : 2016)

"This work deals with the study of photodeposition (PD) of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) on TiO2 by using different illumination sources, Medium pressure Mercury lamp (ML), Solar Simulator equipped with AM 1.5 (SL) and Tungsten lamp (WL). Different particle size of AuNPs on TiO2 were obtained by photodeposition method under different illumination sources, which clearly proves the influence of light source on the synthesis of Au–TiO2. The plasmonic activity of Au–TiO2 photocatalyst for water splitting reaction was observed to be strongly influenced by the particle size of Au as well as illumination source. Amongst the three different illumination sources used, smallest particle size for AuNP–TiO2 were observed under ML followed by SL and WL, as revealed by TEM analysis. Different illumination sources were also investigated to evaluate the activity of Au–TiO2 samples thus prepared under different illumination conditions. The order of hydrogen evolution rate (HER) observed for Au–TiO2 with different source of illuminations is ML > SL > WL. The highest HER of 1709 μmol/h was observed for Au–TiO2, which was synthesized and evaluated under ML irradiation. This may be explained on the basis of reduced catalytic activity and photothermal effect of Au nanoparticles with increasing particle size."

Graphene based materials supported advanced oxidation processes for water and wastewater treatment: A review(Environmental Science and Pollution Research)
(P. V. Nidheesh,24,,27047-27069,Year : 2016)
|
Abstract Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) received much attention in the field of water and wastewater treatment due to its ability to mineralize persistent organic pollutants from water medium. The addition of graphene-based materials increased the efficiency of all AOPs significantly. The present review analyzes the performance of graphene-based materials that supported AOPs in detail. Recent developments in this field are highlighted. A special focus has been awarded for the performance enhancement mechanism of AOPs in the presence of graphene-based materials.

Environmental occurrence of CECs poses a great threat to both aquatic life and human health. The aim of this study was to optimize and validate SPE/LC-(ESI)MS-MS method for simultaneous quantitative monitoring of two sub-classes of CECs (pharmaceuticals and hormones) and to estimate the concentrations of select CECs in environmental water samples. For all the tested analytes, recoveries in laboratory reagent water were greater than 81%. Average percent (relative standard deviation) RSD of the analytes in recovery, repeatability, and reproducibility experiments were ≤ 10%. Determination coefficients (r2) of primidone, diclofenac, testosterone, and progesterone were estimated to be 0.9979, 0.9972, 0.9968, and 0.9962, respectively. Limits of detection (LOD) for primidone, diclofenac, testosterone, and progesterone were 4.63 ng/L, 5.36 ng/L, 0.55 ng/L, and 0.88 ng/L, respectively. Limits of quantification (LOQ) for primidone, diclofenac, testosterone, and progesterone were 14.72 ng/L, 17.06 ng/L, 1.766 ng/L, and 2.813 ng/L, respectively. Average recoveries in environmental water and wastewater samples were greater than 74% and RSD were ≤ 7%. Trace levels (68.33-125.70 ng/L) of primidone were detected in four environmental water samples, whereas diclofenac was not detected in any of the tested sample. Trace levels of progesterone were observed in two environmental samples (16.64 -203.73 ng/L), whereas testosterone was detected in STP inlet sample (178.16 ng/L).

Distillery effluent as a liquid fertilizer: a win-win option for sustainable agriculture (Environmental Technology (United Kingdom))
(Kanchan Kumari
,37 (3). ,,381-7,Year : 2016)
|
A promising approach to recycle the residual distillery waste as a potential liquid fertilizer has been discussed in this paper. Field studies were conducted on Brassica compestris to assess the potential of the diluted post- methanated distillery effluent. The results indicated that there was not much variation in pH, conductivity and nitrate of soil, whereas total dissolved solids, conductivity, nitrate and chemical oxygen demand of the well water increased slightly but well within the permissible limit. However, there was a significant increase in the plant biomass, diameter of the shoot and root, area of leaf, as well as number and length of pods and root hairs. The hydrophilic colloids of the seed increased significantly (p < .01) and the yield of mustard seeds was increased by 30% as compared to the conventional fertilizer. The carbohydrate, chlorophyll and ascorbic acid content of the leaf, stem and root were also analysed and its morpho- physiological significance is also presented in this paper.
