Abstract:
The efficient degradation of antibiotics holds significant implications for mitigating environmental pollution. This study synthesized a montmorillonite chitosan composite material (MMT-CS) using the gel template method. Subsequently, a bio-enhanced reactor was constructed to facilitate the degradation of chlorotetracycline (CTC). The addition of MMT-CS composite material enables the degradation of different concentrations of CTC. MMTCS, a conductive carrier, effectively promotes microbial adhesion and boosts the metabolic activity of functional microorganisms. Additionally, it facilitates the maintenance of microbial activity under CTC pressure by promoting the secretion of extracellular polymeric substances, increasing critical enzyme activity, and enhancing the electron transfer capacity within the system. In this MMT-CS bio-enhanced process, Paracoccus (11.4%) and Bacillus (3.9%) are utilized as essential bacteria genes. The results of metabolic pathways prediction indicated significant enhancements in membrane-transport, nucleotide-metabolism, replication-repair, and lipidmetabolism. Thus, the developed self-supporting MMT-CS bio-enhanced process ensured the stability of the system during the removal of antibiotics.
