不同溶解氧条件下A/O系统的除碳脱氮效果和细菌群落结构变化

应用一个在不同的溶解氧(3、2、1和0.5 mg·L-1)浓度下长期运行的缺氧/好氧(A/O)小试系统考察了溶解氧浓度的变化对系统的除碳和脱氮效果以及细菌群落结构的影响.结果表明,A/O系统的除碳和脱氮效果不随溶解氧(DO)的降低而降低,在低溶解氧(0.5 mg·L-1)条件下,系统仍具有很好的除碳和脱氮效果,即化学需氧量(COD)、氨氮(NH+4-N)和总氮(TN)的去除率分别为89.7%、98.3%和88.0%.通过PCR-DGGE方法,对系统中的细菌群落结构随DO浓度的变化规律进行了分析,结果表明,微生物群落结构随DO浓度的变化有所不同,高DO和低DO环境中的细菌群落结构差异较大,但是与高DO条件下系统内的细菌群落相比,在低DO条件下系统内细菌群落仍具有较高的生物多样性.在低DO条件下,系统内的优势细菌主要被鉴定为Proteobacteria.

Carbon/nitrogen Removal and Bacterial Community Structure Change in an A/O Activated Sludge System Under Different Dissolved Oxygen Conditions

Carbon and nitrogen removal performance and microbial community structure under different dissolved oxygen (DO) conditions (3, 2, 1 and 0.5 mg ·L^-1) in an anoxic/oxic (A/O) system were investigated. The results showed that the A/O activated sludge system still had an excellent performance in removing carbon and nutrient under low DO condition (0.5 mg ·L^-1). The removal rates of chemical oxygen demand (COD), ammonia (NH₄⁺-N) and total nitrogen (TN) were 89.7%, 98.3% and 88.0%, respectively. The PCR-DGGE analysis showed that the bacterial community structure changed greatly under different DO conditions. However, there was still a high bacterial diversity even at low DO level, which ensured the functional stability of the A/O system. On the basis of the results of the phylogenetic tree, bacterial communities were observed to be very abundant, and Proteobacteria was identified as the dominant bacteria.
