Photosynthetic bacteria-based technology is a potential alternative to meet sustainable wastewater treatment requirement?
A paradigm shift is underway in wastewater treatment from pollution removal to resource or energy recovery. However, conventional activated sludge (CAS) as the core technology of wastewater treatment is confronted with severe challenges on high energy consumption, sludge disposal and inevitable greenhouse gas emission, which are posing a serious impact on the current wastewater industry. It is urgent to find new alternative methods to remedy these defects.Photosynthetic bacteria (PSB) have flexible metabolic modes and high tolerance, which enhance the removal of nutrients, heavy metals and organic contaminants efficiency in different wastewater. The unique phototrophic growth of PSB breaks the restriction of nutrient metabolism in the CAS system. Recent studies have shown that PSB-based technologies can not only achieve the recovery of nutrient and energy, but also improve the degradation efficiency of refractory substances. If the application parameters can be determined, there will be great prospects and economic effects. This review summarizes the research breakthroughs and application promotion of PSB-based wastewater treatment technology in recent years. Comparing discussed the superiority and inferiority from the perspective of application range, performance differences and recovery possibility. Pathways involved in the nutrient substance and the corresponding influencing parameters are also described in detail. The mode of PSB biodegradation processes presented a promising alternative for new wastewater treatment scheme. In the future, more mechanical and model studies, deterministic operating parameters, revolutionary process design is need for large-scale industrial promotion of PSB-based wastewater treatment. Keywords: Photosynthetic bacteria, Wastewater treatment, Influence factors, Resource recovery, Photo-bioreactors, Refractory contaminants
