ABSTRACT
In this study, ferrous ion (Fe(II)) had the potential to promote ecological functions in constructed wetlands (CWs) under perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) stress. Concretely, Fe(II) at 30 mg/L and 20-30 mg/L even led to 11.37% increase of urease and 93.15-243.61% increase of nitrite oxidoreductase respectively compared to the control. Fe(II) promotion was also observed on Nitrosomonas, Nitrospira, Azospira, and Zoogloea by 1.00-6.50 folds, which might result from higher expression of nitrogen fixation and nitrite redox genes. These findings could be explanation for increase of ammonium removal by 7.47-8.75% with Fe(II) addition, and reduction of nitrate accumulation with 30 mg/L Fe(II). Meanwhile, both Fe(II) stimulation on PAOs like Dechloromonas, Rhodococcus, Mesorhizobium, and Methylobacterium by 1.58-2.00 folds, and improvement on chemical phosphorus removal contributed to higher total phosphorus removal efficiency under high-level PFOA exposure. Moreover, Fe(II) raised chlorophyll content and reduced the oxidative damage brought by PFOA, especially at lower dosage. Nevertheless, combination of Fe(II) and high-level PFOA caused inhibition on microbial alpha diversity, which could result in decline of PFOA removal (by 4.29-12.83%). Besides, decrease of genes related to nitrate reduction demonstrated that enhancement on denitrification was due to nitrite reduction to N2 pathways rather than the first step of denitrifying process.
