In this study, an integrated investigation to the microbial activities, extracellular polymeric substance (EPS), microbial community and function of anammox granular sludge (AnGS) was performed.Results showed that AnGS at 0.5-1.0 mm had the highest average specific anammox activity (SAA) of 345.9 mg NH-N·gVSS·d, but AnGS at 1.0-1.5 mm with higher SAA might lead to better nitrogen removal efficiency. The content of slime EPS and SAA achieved positively correlation with R of 98.11%, while protein/polysaccharide ratio of slime EPS and sludge volume index achieved negatively correlation with R of 99.13%. Cadidatus Broccadia and Denitratisoma were positive correlations and most abundant in AnGS 0.5-1.0 mm of 20% and AnGS 1.0-1.5 mm of 37%, respectively. AnGS at 0.5-1.0 mm exhibited higher energy metabolism which mostly contributed to produce protein. The study provides new insights into the mechanisms of AnGS about 1 mm playing more important role in nitrogen removal performance.
本研究对厌氧氨氧化颗粒污泥(AnGS)的微生物活性、胞外聚合物(EPS)、微生物群落和功能进行了综合研究。结果表明,0.5-1.0mm 的 AnGS 具有最高的平均比厌氧氨氧化活性(SAA),为 345.9mgNH-N·gVSS·d,但 SAA 较高的 1.0-1.5mm 的 AnGS 可能会导致更好的氮去除效率。污泥 EPS 的含量与 SAA 呈正相关,相关系数为 98.11%,而污泥 EPS 的蛋白质/多糖比与污泥体积指数呈负相关,相关系数为 99.13%。Candidatus Broccadia 和 Denitratisoma 呈正相关,分别在 0.5-1.0mm 的 AnGS 中占 20%,在 1.0-1.5mm 的 AnGS 中占 37%,最为丰富。0.5-1.0mm 的 AnGS 表现出更高的能量代谢水平,这主要有助于产生蛋白质。该研究为 1mm 左右的 AnGS 在氮去除性能中发挥更重要作用的机制提供了新的见解。
