PG - 115849 LID - S0013-9351(23)00641-2 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.envres.2023.115849 [doi] AB - The application of microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) technology is critical, but many challenges remain. In this paper, a microbial fuel cell (MFC) is used to treat molasses wastewater, and the effluent is used as the substrate to promote the growth of urease-producing bacteria. The results showed that the maximum voltage of MFC was 500 mV, and the maximum power density was 169.86 mW/m(2). The mineralization rate reached 100% on the 15(th) day, and the mineralized product was calcite CaCO(3). According to the microbial community analysis, the unclassified_Comamondaceae, Arcobacter, and Aeromonas, which could improve the OH(-), signal molecular transmission and small molecular nutrients to promote the urease activity of urease-producing bacteria. The above conclusions provide a new way to reuse molasses wastewater efficiently and to apply MICP technology in dust suppression. CI - Copyright (c) 2023 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
