ABSTRACT
In this paper, a magnetic sequencing batch reactor (SBR) was constructed, and the influence rule of magnetic particle dosing performance of denitrification was investigated. The diversity, structure, and potential functions of the microbial community were comprehensively explored. The results showed that the particle size and the dosage of Fe3O4 magnetic particles were the main parameters affecting the sedimentation performance of activated sludge. The start-up phase of the SBR reactor with Fe3O4 magnetic particles was 5 days less than the control. Moreover, total nitrogen removal efficiency during the start-up phase was improved, with the maximum value reaching 91.93%, surpassing the control by 9.7% with the Fe3O4 dosage of 1.2 g L-1. In addition, the activated sludge concentration and dehydrogenase activity were improved, compared to the control. High-throughput sequencing showed that the denitrifying bacterium Saccharimonadales dominated the reactor and was enriched by magnetic particles. According to predicted functions, the abundance of genes for denitrification increased with the addition of magnetic particles, suggesting the capacity of nitrogen removal was enhanced in the microbial community. Overall, the Fe3O4 magnetic particles provide great potential for enhanced wastewater nitrogen removal.
