Abstract

Iron not only influences the activity of anammox bacteria (AnAOB) but also participates in complex Fe-N cycles. In this study, the advanced ¹⁵N isotope tracing method was set up to quantify the potential rates of full nitrogen metabolic pathways under different ferrous iron (Fe²⁺ and FeO) within two identical anammox granular reactors. The results indicated that both Fe²⁺ and FeO enhanced AnAOB activity. However, compared to Fe²⁺, which readily precipitates and oxidizes, the system supplemented with FeO exhibited higher Fe-N metabolic activity and greater metabolic diversity. This is attributed to the gradual release of Fe²⁺ from FeO, providing a sustainable and stable supply of Fe²⁺ for microorganisms. Furthermore, Subgroup_10 and Paludibaculum were identified as potential functional bacteria for feammox, while Denitratisoma, I-8 and Arenimonas were for NDFO. These results suggest that FeO addition is more beneficial for the construction of a Fe-N coupling system. Overall, this study enhances our understanding of how with exogenous iron can strengthen the anammox system, laying a theoretical foundation for the development of anammox-dominant Fe-N coupling systems.

期刊介绍： Water Research, along with its open access companion journal Water Research X, serves as a platform for publishing original research papers covering various aspects of the science and technology related to the anthropogenic water cycle, water quality, and its management worldwide. The audience targeted by the journal comprises biologists, chemical engineers, chemists, civil engineers, environmental engineers, limnologists, and microbiologists. The scope of the journal include: •Treatment processes for water and wastewaters (municipal, agricultural, industrial, and on-site treatment), including resource recovery and residuals management; •Urban hydrology including sewer systems, stormwater management, and green infrastructure; •Drinking water treatment and distribution; •Potable and non-potable water reuse; •Sanitation, public health, and risk assessment; •Anaerobic digestion, solid and hazardous waste management, including source characterization and the effects and control of leachates and gaseous emissions; •Contaminants (chemical, microbial, anthropogenic particles such as nanoparticles or microplastics) and related water quality sensing, monitoring, fate, and assessment; •Anthropogenic impacts on inland, tidal, coastal and urban waters, focusing on surface and ground waters, and point and non-point sources of pollution; •Environmental restoration, linked to surface water, groundwater and groundwater remediation; •Analysis of the interfaces between sediments and water, and between water and atmosphere, focusing specifically on anthropogenic impacts; •Mathematical modelling, systems analysis, machine learning, and beneficial use of big data related to the anthropogenic water cycle; •Socio-economic, policy, and regulations studies.
