RESUMEN
In order to investigate the characteristics of microbial community in each compartment of ABR anammox reactor, a five-compartment ABR reactor was used to analyze the microbial community by Miseq High-throughput Sequencing during the steady operational process. The results indicated that the denitrifying bacteria coexisted in the reactor, such as Proteobacteria, Planctomycete, and Nitrospirae bacteria, and the percentages of these three microbial populations in the sludge were 11.66%-20.28%, 2.18%-7.94% and 0.19%-6.30%, respectively. In addition, there were four dominant genera in the phylum Proteobacteria:Rhodoplanes, Dok59, Rubrivivax and Bdellovibrio. Furthermore, Candidatus brocadia and Candidatus kuenenia were the main genera in the phylum Planctomycete. The color of sludge in the five compartments, in turn, varied from red to black. In addition, the biodiversity index of Chao, ACE, Shannon and Simpson indicated that the richness and diversity of microbial community increased gradually, and at the same time, the relative abundance of Proteobacteria increased while that of Planctomycetes gradually decreased. The above conclusion was consistent with the laws of substrate degradation and enrichment of functional microorganisms.
