Enhanced nitrogen removal by hydroxylamine (NHOH) on anammox-related process recently received attention. This study investigated the impact of NHOH on the partial-denitrification/anammox (PDA) biosystem. Results show that NHOH (≤10 mg N/L) immediately induced nitrite accumulation and provided sufficient NO to anammox, achieving a 18.1 ± 4.3 % increase of nitrogen removal efficiency compared to the absence of NHOH. Long-term exposure to NHOH accelerated the functional microbial community transformation to PDA. Thauera was highly enriched (6.1 % → 26.9 %) along with Candidatus Brocadia increased in the biofilms, which mainly favor the coupling process of nitrate reduction and anammox. Although the migration mechanism of anammox and denitrifier revealed by CLSM-FISH alleviates the adverse effects of NHOH, the anammox was inhibited when NHOH exceeding 15 mg N/L through destroying the inner reduction of NO. These results suggested appropriate NHOH addition favors the synergy between denitrifying and anammox bacteria, providing a promising option for wastewater treatment.
羟胺(NHOH)对厌氧氨氧化相关过程中氮去除的强化作用近来受到关注。本研究调查了NHOH对部分反硝化/厌氧氨氧化(PDA)生物系统的影响。结果表明,NHOH(≤10 mg N/L)立即诱导亚硝酸盐积累,并为厌氧氨氧化提供足够的NO,与不添加NHOH相比,氮去除效率提高了18.1±4.3%。长期暴露于NHOH加速了功能微生物群落向PDA的转变。陶厄氏菌高度富集(从6.1%增至26.9%),同时生物膜中“Candidatus Brocadia”增加,这主要有利于硝酸盐还原与厌氧氨氧化的耦合过程。尽管CLSM-FISH揭示的厌氧氨氧化菌和反硝化菌的迁移机制减轻了NHOH的不利影响,但当NHOH超过15 mg N/L时,会通过破坏NO的内部还原而抑制厌氧氨氧化。这些结果表明,适当添加NHOH有利于反硝化菌和厌氧氨氧化菌之间的协同作用,为废水处理提供了一个有前景的选择。
