Roxarsone (ROX), a world widely used feed organoarsenic additive in animal production, can be excreted as itself and its metabolites in animal manure. Animal manure is commonly land applied with phosphorous (P) fertilizer to enhance the P phytoavailability in agriculture. We investigated the accumulation of As species in garland chrysanthemum ( C. coronarium ) plants fertilized with 1 % ( w / w , manure/soil) chicken manure bearing ROX and its metabolites, plus 0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, and 0.8 g P 2 O 5 /kg, respectively. The results show that As(III) was the sole As compound in garland chrysanthemum shoots, and As(III) and As(V) were detectable in roots. Elevated phosphate level supplied more As(V) for garland chrysanthemum roots through competitive desorption in rhizosphere, leading to significantly enhanced accumulation of As species in plants. As(III) was the predominant As form in plants (85.0∼90.6 %). Phosphate could not change the allocation of As species in plants. Hence, the traditional practice that animal manure is applied with P fertilizer may inadvertently increase the potential risk of As contamination in crop via the way ROX → animal → animal manure → soil → crop.

Clay minerals are the most popular adsorbents/amendments for immobilizing heavy metals in contaminated soils, but the dissolved organic matter (DOM) in soil environment would potentially affect the adsorption/immobilization capacity of clay minerals for heavy metals. In this study, the effects of DOM derived from chicken manure (CM) on the adsorption of cadmium (Cd 2+ ) on two clay minerals, bentonite and zeolite, were investigated. The equilibrium data for Cd 2+ sorption in the absence or presence of CM-DOM could be well-fitted to the Langmuir equation ( R 2 > 0.97). The presence of CM-DOM in the aqueous solution was found to greatly reduce the adsorption capacity of both minerals for Cd 2+ , in particular zeolite, and the percentage decreases for Cd 2+ sorption increased with increasing concentrations of Cd 2+ as well as CM-DOM in aqueous solutions. The adsorption of CM-DOM on zeolite was greater than that on bentonite in the absence of Cd 2+ , however, a sharp increase was observed for CM-DOM sorption on bentonite with increasing Cd 2+ concentrations but little change for that on zeolite, which can be attributed to the different ternary structures on mineral surface. The CM-DOM modified clay minerals were utilized to investigate the effect of mineral-adsorbed CM-DOM on Cd 2+ sorption. The adsorbed form was found to inhibit Cd 2+ sorption, and further calculation suggested it primarily responsible for the overall decrease in Cd 2+ sorption on clay minerals in the presence of CM-DOM in aqueous solutions. An investigation for the mineral surface morphology suggested that the mineral-adsorbed CM-DOM decreased Cd 2+ sorption on bentonite mainly through barrier effect, while in the case of zeolite, it was the combination of active sites occupation and barrier effect. These results can serve as a guide for evaluating the performance of clay minerals in immobilizing heavy metals when animal manure is present in contaminated soils.

In order to investigate the effect of compound antibiotics on anaerobic digestion of chicken manure, the inhibitory effect of three different combinations of oxytetracycline (OTC), sulfamethoxazole (SMZ), and enrofloxacin (ENR) on anaerobic digestion of chicken manure was studied by the sequencing batch method. Under the condition of adding three different combinations of antibiotics, the experiment was run for 50 days. The concentrations of soluble chemical oxygen demand (SCOD), total ammonia nitrogen (TAN), VFAs, and methane production in the reactor were measured, and the microbial diversity affecting the stability of the system was analyzed. The results showed that OTC and SMZ inhibited methane production, while SMZ and ENR promoted methane production, and the cumulative methane production was R4>R3>R1>R2. After the 25th day, the SCOD concentration in the R2 and R4 groups decreased, which was due to the existence of SMZ and ENR promoting the degradation of SCOD. TAN concentrations in the four groups were kept between 1,190 and 2,100 mg/L. The results of 16S rRNA sequencing showed that the mixed antibiotics had different effects on the bacterial community, which was mainly composed of Firmicutes, Bacteroidota, unidentified bacteria, Cloacimonadota, Proteobacteria, and Spirochaetota. Bacteroidota was superior in the whole reaction process under the influence of OTC and SMZ because it stimulated the microbial flora and made its activity higher. The study provides relevant data for the proper management of livestock manure.

Extreme weather and the declining organic matter content of soils cause serious sustainability problems in agriculture. Therefore, soil conditioner composites (chicken manure, bentonite and super absorbent polymer) were developed and tested in an integrated apple orchard characterized by poor nutrient and water management to study their effects on soil, leaf and fruit attributes. Composites with higher doses of additives increased soil organic carbon by 4–9 g/kg, and organic nitrogen by 1.8–2.8 g/kg compared to the control (p< 0.05). Similarly, soil nitrate content steadily increased from 8–10 mg/kg to 30–38 mg/kg by composites. Composites effectively elevated leaf N, K, Ca, and Mg while not affecting the leaf P (p< 0.05). Treatments significantly enhanced the yields by 14–63% on average compared to the control. Treatments with bentonite improved the fruit weight by 2% and 24% compared to the chicken manure. On average, composite treatments increased the titratable acidity of fruits by 26–43% compared to the control and 0.5–10% compared to the treatment containing solely chicken manure. Overall, the developed organic-based composites are able to cope with changing circumstances that could help mitigate the negative effects of climate change, especially in arid areas, thus contributing to sustainable nutrient management.

Background Peracetic acid (PAA) based advanced oxidation processes are of increasing interest due to the generation of organic radical (R-O·) with strong oxidation ability. However, the mechanism of PAA activation by carbon materials is still worth further study. Methods In this study, a series of chicken manure biochar (CBC) materials were prepared at different carbonization temperatures. The active sites and reaction mechanism of biochar materials were studied by the selective quenching method of functional groups. Significant findings High carbonization temperatures endowed CBC with abundant microporous structure. In the SMX degradation experiment, the CBC material prepared at 900 °C (CBC900) allowed complete SMX degradation within 30 min. The degradation rate constant of SMX in the CBC900-activated PAA system was >13 times as high as that in the system activated by benchmark multi-walled carbon nanotubes. R-O· was identified as the dominant reactive specials in CBC900/PAA system and was produced via electron transfer between PAA and CBC900. The defect and oxygen-containing group -COOH was demonstrated as the key active sites to activate PAA. This study provides in-depth understanding of PAA activation by carbon materials and therefore makes contributions to the development and application of PAA-based AOPs.

Roxarsone (ROX), a widely used feed organoarsenic additive, occurs as itself and its metabolites in animal manure that is commonly land used as fertilizer. Soil property impacts arsenic (As) speciation and bioavailability. Fourteen soils across China were used to conduct culture experiments to investigate As uptake by garland chrysanthemum ( ChrysanthemumL coronarium ), with the soils fertilized with chicken manure bearing ROX and its metabolites. The results show As(III) was the sole As form in garland chrysanthemum shoots, and As(III) and As(V) occurred in roots. Only inorganic As was detected in all soils when the plants were harvested. Stepwise regression analysis shows soil-exchangeable Ca predominated shoot As(III) concentration (shoot As(III) = 1.60030 soil Ca, R
2 = 0.8832***). Therefore, ROX is transferred into the human food chain finally as inorganic As in plants. Application of animal manure bearing ROX and its metabolites is not recommended in Ca-rich soils to avoid excess inorganic As dietary exposure.

Fecal pollution in rural areas and water pollution caused by emerging contaminants (ECs) are two international environmental problems. Here, we propose a new strategy to address the two problems simultaneously through the resource utilization and harmless transformation of poultry manure as a kind of water purification catalyst with zero addition. The ordered bonding of intrinsic metal-organic species is realized in the resourcelized procedure by a one-stage calcination-annealing method, which results in the formation of electron-rich/poor microregions. With the triggering of a small amount of peroxymonosulfate (PMS), the energy/electrons of ECs are utilized by the dissolved oxygen in water driven by the electron-rich/poor microregions on the catalyst surface. As a result, the system exhibits excellent performance in removing various ECs. The degradation rate can even be maintained above 94.3 % after 10,000 cycles. This work indicates a sustainable approach to the effective utilization and treatment of rural waste and pollutants.

Biochar, produced from agricultural waste, provides a sustainable solution for effective waste management and soil remediation. The potential and mechanisms of biochar derived from primary agricultural sources (plant residues and animal manure) to mitigate the antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) pollution in agricultural soil remain unexplored. To address this, a 60-day microcosm experiment was conducted, applying biochar derived from either corn straw (B1) or chicken manure (B2) to sulfamethazine and tetracycline-contaminated soil. The results demonstrated that B1 had richer functional groups than B2. B1 increased soil pH (+1.63 %) and total carbon (+24.56 %), but it decreased the abundance of norank_Vicinamibacteraceae (−35.71 %) and Haliangium (−42.11 %), and inhibited the dissemination of tetM and tetW by 57.76 % and 39.17 %, respectively. Comparatively, B2 significantly increased soil dissolved organic carbon (+161.66 %) and decreased the abundance of potential ARGs hosts ( Acidibacter , −40.32 %), leading to reduced sul2 abundance (−33.47 %). Besides, B2 enhanced soil total nitrogen and bacterial diversity, and further reduced tetW abundance (−33.76 %). Overall, this study revealed divergent mechanisms and potential for mitigating soil ARGs transmission by biochar derived from corn straw and chicken manure. This study contributes to developing more effective strategies for managing ARGs in contaminated soil and mitigating their environmental risks.

The composting ecosystem provides a potential resource for finding new microorganisms with the capability for cellulose degradation. In the present study, Congo red method was used for the isolating of thermostable lignocellulose-degrading bacteria from chicken manure compost. A thermophilic strain named as Geobacillus thermodenitrificans Y7 with acid-resident property was successfully isolated and employed to degrade raw switchgrass at 60°C for 5 days, which resulted in the final degradation rates of cellulose, xylan, and acid-insoluble lignin as 18.64, 12.96, and 17.21%, respectively. In addition, GC-MS analysis about aromatic degradation affirm the degradation of lignin by G. thermodenitrificans Y7. Moreover, an endocellulase gene belong to M42 family was successfully cloned from G. thermodenitrificans Y7 and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21. Recombinant enzyme Cel-9 was purified by Ni-NTA column based the His-tag, and the molecular weight determined as 40.4 kDa by SDA–PAGE. The characterization of the enzyme Cel-9 indicated that the maximum enzyme activity was realized at 50°C and pH 8.6 and, Mn2+ could greatly improve the CMCase enzyme activity of Cel-9 at 10 mM, which was followed by Fe2+ and Co2+. Besides, it also found that the β-1,3-1,4, β-1,3, β-1,4, and β-1,6 glucan linkages all could be hydrolyzed by enzyme Cel-9. Finally, during the application of enzyme Cel-9 to switchgrass, the saccharification rates achieved to 1.81 ± 0.04% and 2.65 ± 0.03% for 50 and 100% crude enzyme, respectively. All these results indicated that both the strain G. thermodenitrificans Y7 and the recombinant endocellulase Cel-9 have the potential to be applied to the biomass industry.

Porous polythiophene materials were successfully synthesized by external-crosslinker method and applied as sorbents in solid-phase extraction. A method for the determination of tetracycline antibiotics (tetracycline/ oxytetracycline/doxycycline) in fish and chicken manure was proposed by combining solid phase extraction-ultraviolet visible spectrophotometer (SPE-UV) and solid phase extraction-high performance liquid chromatography (SPE-HPLC). The effects of material dosage, extraction time, washing time, eluent type and dosage, and the reusability of polythiophene sorbent on extraction rate were investigated. With the use of SPE-HPLC method, satisfied linearity for three tetracyclines antibiotics was obtained in the range of 0.004–1 mg/L. The detection limits (LODs) were ranged from 0.0012 to 0.0027 mg/L and the relative standard deviations (RSDs) were 3.5–7.3% (n = 5). The recoveries in actual fish samples and chicken manure samples were 91.1–114.1% and 69.5–93.2%, respectively. No tetracycline antibiotics were detected in fish samples and no doxycycline was detected in chicken manure samples. However, oxytetracycline and tetracycline were detected in two chicken manure samples with the contents of 5.12, 6.58 mg/kg and 6.08, 7.72 mg/kg, respectively. This method was simple, sensitive and suitable for the determination of tetracyclines in practical samples.

Initiating aerobic fermentation under low temperature is the main challenge for winter livestock manure composting. This study aims to address this issue by applying black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) frass as a co-composting additive to enhance the low-temperature composting process. Specifically, this work explored the effects of chicken manure and BSFL frass co-composting on the temperature, humus content, and microorganisms with fresh weight ratio of 2:1, 1:1, 1:2 (w/w) at 6 °C. The result showed frass could rapidly rise the temperature to 50 °C and significantly increased the humus content by 15.6 % ∼ 26.3 %. Moreover, microbial analysis revealed that Sphingobacteriaceae accelerated temperature rise via low-temperature reproduction, creating proper temperature for thermophilic bacteria ( Truepera and Georgia ). Additionally, Cellulomonas and other bacteria promoted organic matter degradation and participated in humus formation. This study presents a novel solution for low-temperature composting, providing practical insights for improving manure management in winter.

This study aimed to investigate the independent and combined effects of antibiotic and EM microbial agent on the nitrogen and humus (HS) transformations as well as the bacterial community successions during the chicken manure and rice husk composting. EM microbial agent accelerated the oxytetracycline (OTC) degradation, but slowed down the norfloxacin (NOR) degradation. OTC inhibited the TN retention and promoted the HS accumulation, both NOR and EM microbial agent inhibited the TN retention and HS accumulation, while EM microbial agent showed an antagonistic effect on TN immobilization with antibiotics and reduced the impacts of antibiotics on HS. Obvious bacterial community successions occurred. Firmicutes were related to HS transformation, while Firmicutes , Actinobacteriota and Proteobacteria were associated with nitrogen conversion. NOR promoted the transformations of NH 4 + -N to NO 3 — -N and FA to HA. The findings provided theoretical data for the recycle of antibiotic-contaminated manure and the efficient production of high-quality compost.
