“…Mining activities produce a high volume of mine discards and tailings, causing soil erosion, heavy metal contamination, and acid mine drainage. Furthermore, land degradation due to coal mining alters biogeochemical and hydrological cycles, posing severe environmental and health risks in vast mining operations areas [ 97 ].…”

“…Several microbial cultures have been isolated from coal sources (slurries and disposal of coal tailings), screened for coal biodegradation competence, and characterized. Hamidović et al [ 97 ] isolated and identified autochthonous lignite mine spoil bacteria and evaluated their potential in the bioremediation of mine-overburdened soil. The findings of that study also illustrated the soil fertility potential of recovered native species Bacillus simplex and Bacillus cereus .…”

It was generally believed that coal sources are not favorable as live-in habitats for microorganisms due to their recalcitrant chemical nature and negligible decomposition. However, accumulating evidence has revealed the presence of diverse microbial groups in coal environments and their significant metabolic role in coal biogeochemical dynamics and ecosystem functioning. The high oxygen content, organic fractions, and lignin-like structures of lower-rank coals may provide effective means for microbial attack, still representing a greatly unexplored frontier in microbiology. Coal degradation/conversion technology by native bacterial and fungal species has great potential in agricultural development, chemical industry production, and environmental rehabilitation. Furthermore, native microalgal species can offer a sustainable energy source and an excellent bioremediation strategy applicable to coal spill/seam waters. Additionally, the measures of the fate of the microbial community would serve as an indicator of restoration progress on post-coal-mining sites. This review puts forward a comprehensive vision of coal biodegradation and bioprocessing by microorganisms native to coal environments for determining their biotechnological potential and possible applications.

The aim of this work was to examine the multiplication of the common duckweed (Lemna minor), an aquatic plant species widespread in European stagnant waters, in two different media (Murashige -Skoog and Hoagland) with and without phenol supplementation. In order to quantify plant multiplication we have used relative growth rate and tolerance indices on both tested media and at five phenol concentrations (10, 15, 20, 30 and 100 mg/L). Furthermore, we examined the possibility of phenol removal from aqueous media containing different phenol concentrations, by using plant/bacteria system consisting of the duckweed and its naturally occurring microbial populations. After 7 days, number of newly formed fronds was approximately four times higher than at the beginning of the experiment on both tested media. The most important result in this study was removal of 70% of phenol from the highest initial concentration of 100 mg/L, in mixed cultures of duckweed and bacteria. By comparison, aseptic duckweed cultures removed approximately 50% of phenol at the same initial concentration. Our duckweed specimen showed a fast reproduction rate, high tolerance to phenol and a possible cooperation with rhizosphere-associated bacteria. All of these traits can be ultimately utilized for bioremediation purposes.
