英文摘要 | Recent reports on the occurrence and contribution of dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA) in marine, inland water, and soil systems have greatly improved our understanding of the global nitrogen (N) cycle. This also promoted the investigation of the role and ecological features of DNRA in anthropogenic ecosystems. However, so far, the use of DNRA in municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), which are one of the most common and largest biotechnologically artificial water ecosystems, has not been investigated. Accordingly, this study focused on the abundance, activity, community structure, and diversity of DNRA bacteria in full-scale WWTPs. DNRA bacteria were detected in all treatment units in six tested municipal WWTPs, even in aerobic zones (dissolved oxygen > 2 mg L-1). Although the relative abundance of DNRA bacteria (0.2-4.0%) was less than that of denitrifying bacteria (0.7-10.1%) among all investigated samples, the abundance of DNRA bacteria still reaches 10(9) gene copies g(-1). However, N-15-isotope tracing indicated that the potential DNRA rates were significantly lower (0.4-2.1 nmol N g(-1) h(-1)) than those of denitrification (9.5-15.7 nmol N g(-1) h(-1)), but higher than anammox rate (0.3-1.3 nmol N g(-1) h(-1)). The DNRA bacterial community structure was primarily affected by temperature gradient despite the treatment process. High-throughput sequencing analysis targeting the DNRA nrfA gene showed that Nitrospira accounted for the largest proportion of nrfA genes among all samples (6.2-36.3%), followed by Brocadia (5.9-22.1%). Network analysis further indicated that Nitrospira played an important role in both the DNRA bacterial community and entire bacterial community in municipal WWTPs. These results suggest that the ecological habitats of DNRA bacteria in anthropogenic ecosystems were far more abundant than previously assumed. However, the contribution to N transformation by the widespread DNRA was not significant in traditional municipal WWTPs. (c) 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. |
