Abstract:
Heterotrophic nitrification-aerobic denitrification (HN-AD) process was achieved in a moving bed biofilm reactor after 180-days acclimation using PCL as carbon source for low C/N wastewater treatment. A novel HN-AD strain, JQ-H3, with ability of PCL degradation was augmented to improve nitrogen removal. TN removal efficiencies of 82.31%, 90.05%, and 93.16% were achieved in the augmented reactor (R2), at different HRTs of 24 h, 20 h, and 16 h, while in the control reactor (R1), the TN removal efficiencies were 59.24%, 74.61%, and 76.68%. The effluent COD in R2 was 10.17 mg/L, much lower than that of 42.45 mg/L in R1. Microbial community analysis revealed that JQ-H3 has successfully proliferated with a relative abundance of 4.79%. Relative abundances of functional enzymes of nitrogen cycling remarkably increased due to bioaugmentation based on the analysis of PICRUSt2. This study provides a new approach for enhancing nitrogen removal in low C/N sewage treatment via the HN-AD process.
