AbstractStagnation in premise plumbing can lead to the degradation of drinking water quality, yet the variability of microbiomes and resistomes in these systems at fine spatiotemporal scales remains poorly understood. Here we track the water microbiome daily across households in St. Louis, Missouri, alongside functional gene profiles and antimicrobial resistomes.

AbstractAdding CrIII or AlIII salts into the water suspension of platinum group metal (PGM) catalysts accelerated oxyanion pollutant reduction by up to 600%. Our initial attempts of adding K2CrVIO4, K2CrVI2O7, or KCrIII(SO4)2 into Pd/C enhanced BrO3– reduction with 1 atm H2 by 6-fold. Instrument characterizations and kinetic explorations collectively confirmed the immobilization of reduced CrVI as CrIII(OH)3 on the catalyst surface.
