https://www.selleckchem.com/products/takinib.html A continuous-flow moving bed biofilm reactor (IAMBBR) alternating microaerobic and aerobic conditions was used to remove carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus through simultaneous nitrification and denitrification coupled to phosphorus removal (SNDPR). The IAMBBR was operated under different dissolved oxygen (DO) ranges (0.2-2, 0.2-3 and 0.2-4 mg L-1) and feed C/N ratios (2.8, 3.6 and 4.2) at HRT of 1 day. At a DO range of 0.2-3 mg L-1 and feed C/N ratio of 3.6, the IAMBBR achieved simultaneous removal of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), total inorganic nitrogen (TIN) and P-PO43- with average efficiencies of 100%, 62% and 75%, respectively. Illumina sequencing revealed the coexistence of nitrifiers and P-accumulating denitrifiers (e.g. Hydrogenophaga) in the IAMBBR biofilm. Batch activity tests showed that phosphorus uptake did not occur under stable anaerobic or anoxic conditions, nor under aerobic conditions in absence of nitrate. Nanoparticles have been commercially used worldwide; however, there is a lack of information of their environmental impacts and ecotoxicity. In this study, the effect of cerium oxide nanoparticle (CeO2NP) on a green microalga Scenedesmus obliquus, and microalgal biodegradation of four sulfonamides (sulfamethazine, sulfamethoxazole, sulfadiazine, and sulfamethoxazole) was investigated. There is insignificant inhibition of microalgal growth induced by CeO2NP; however, it substantially influenced the expression of genes involved in key cellular metabolic activities of S. obliquus. For example, genes involved in photosynthetic activity (psbA) and energy production (ATPF0C) were downregulated with exposure to CeO2NP. The low concentrations of CeO2NP improved microalgal degradation of sulfonamides. This may be because of the upregulated genes encoding hydrogenase and oxidoreductase. The exploration of this study has provided a new understanding of the environmental impacts of CeO2NP on microalgae-base
