Biodegradation of ciprofloxacin using machine learning tools: Kinetics and modelling.

Journal of hazardous materials
Recently, the rampant administration of antibiotics and their synthetic organic constitutes have exacerbated adverse effects on ecosystems, affecting the health of animals, plants, and humans by promoting the emergence of extreme multidrug-resistant ...

Nonionic surfactant Tween 80-facilitated bacterial transport in porous media: A nonmonotonic concentration-dependent performance, mechanism, and machine learning prediction.

Environmental research
The surfactant-enhanced bioremediation (SEBR) of organic-contaminated soil is a promising soil remediation technology, in which surfactants not only mobilize pollutants, but also alter the mobility of bacteria. However, the bacterial response and und...

Reusable and Practical Biocomposite Based on sp. YF1 and Polyacrylonitrile-Based Carbon Fiber for the Efficient Bioremediation of Microcystin-LR-Contaminated Water.

Toxins
Microbial degradation is a cost-effective and environmentally friendly method for removing microcystin-LR (MC-LR). However, the application of free bacteria has limitations due to low operational stability and difficulties in recovery. In a previous ...

Fluoranthene biotreatment using prominent freshwater microalgae: physiological responses of microalgae and artificial neural network modeling of the bioremoval process.

International journal of phytoremediation
Due to the intensified industrial activities and other anthropogenic actions, contamination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) has been growing at an alarming rate, turning in to a serious environmental concern. Bioremediation, as an eco-frie...

Saline wastewater treatment by bioelectrochemical process (BEC) based on Al-electrocoagulation and halophilic bacteria: optimization using ANN with new approach.

Environmental technology
In the present study, a bioelectrochemical reactor (BEC) was utilized to treat two types of real saline produced water (PW). BEC was designed based on the combination of electrocoagulation (EC) process with halophilic microorganisms, and it was asses...

Improving predictions and understanding of primary and ultimate biodegradation rates with machine learning models.

The Science of the total environment
This study aimed to develop machine learning based quantitative structure biodegradability relationship (QSBR) models for predicting primary and ultimate biodegradation rates of organic chemicals, which are essential parameters for environmental risk...

Anaerobic condition induces a viable but nonculturable state of the PCB-degrading Bacteria Rhodococcus biphenylivorans TG9.

The Science of the total environment
Significant microbial removal of highly chlorinated polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) requires the cooperation of anaerobic and aerobic bacteria. During the sequencing process of anaerobic dechlorination and aerobic degradation of PCBs, aerobic degrad...

Microbial Decolorization of Triazo Dye, Direct Blue 71: An Optimization Approach Using Response Surface Methodology (RSM) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN).

BioMed research international
The release of wastewater from textile dyeing industrial sectors is a huge concern with regard to pollution as the treatment of these waters is truly a challenging process. Hence, this study investigates the triazo bond Direct Blue 71 (DB71) dye deco...

Gas-phase trichloroethylene removal by Rhodococcus opacus using an airlift bioreactor and its modeling by artificial neural network.

Chemosphere
This study evaluated the biological removal of trichloroethylene (TCE) by Rhodococcus opacus using airlift bioreactor under continuous operation mode. The effect of inlet TCE concentration in the range 0.12-2.34 g m on TCE removal has studied for 55 ...

Effects of corn straw on dissipation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and potential application of backpropagation artificial neural network prediction model for PAHs bioremediation.

Ecotoxicology and environmental safety
In order to provide a viable option for remediation of PAHs-contaminated soils, a greenhouse experiment was conducted to assess the effect of corn straw amendment (1%, 2%, 4% or 6%, w/w) on dissipation of aged polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) ...
