ABSTRACT
The long-term effect of fulvic acid (FA) on bioreactor performance and on microbial populations within the anammox process were firstly investigated in this study. The average nitrogen removal rate showed an upward trend when the influent TOC concentration of FA was 25.2-65.1 mg/L. However, when FA was increased to 80.3 mg/L, the reactor performance was slightly inhibited. In addition, judging from the particle size and settling properties, FA can promote anammox sludge granulation. After 53 days of exposure to FA, the genus Anaerolineaincreased in number, while Denitratisoma decreased. Candidatus Jettenia and Candidatus Kuenenia survived and enriched in the changed environment, potentially due to the interaction between anammox bacteria and some heterotrophic bacteria, which could protect anammox bacteria from adverse environments. These results indicate that FA can change the bacterial community and trigger different microbial interaction mechanisms within the anammox reactor.
