Xenobiotic aromatic compounds are the raw materials of necessities in modern life, such as plastics, pesticides, and antibiotics. To meet the global requirements, their production and consumption have continually increased, and thus, the vast amount of waste generated results in prominent environmental pollution. Fortunately, some microorganisms (e.g., spp.) can specially use these pollutants as substrates for growth, allowing for the development of bioremediation technology to achieve sustainable development goals. Here, we describe common xenobiotic aromatic compounds used in our daily life, discuss their impact on the environment, and review their biodegradation strategies by , as an example. Finally, we argue that microbiome engineering opens up the avenue to future biofilm-based biodegradation technology to improve aromatic compound bioremediation.
外源性芳香族化合物是现代生活必需品的原材料,如塑料、农药和抗生素。为满足全球需求,它们的生产和消费持续增长,因此,产生的大量废物导致了严重的环境污染。幸运的是,一些微生物(如 属)可以专门利用这些污染物作为生长底物,从而推动了生物修复技术的发展以实现可持续发展目标。在此,我们描述了日常生活中常见的外源性芳香族化合物,讨论了它们对环境的影响,并以 为例回顾了它们的生物降解策略。最后,我们认为微生物组工程为未来基于生物膜的生物降解技术开辟了道路,以改善芳香族化合物的生物修复。
