Effect of plant-self debris on nitrogen removal, transformation and microbial community in mesocosm constructed wetlands planted with Myriophyllum aquaticum. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2023; 340:117981. [PMID: 37167082 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2023.117981] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2023] [Revised: 04/17/2023] [Accepted: 04/17/2023] [Indexed: 05/13/2023]
Abstract
Aquatic macrophytes debris decomposition could release pollutants and nutrients into the water of constructed wetlands (CWs), but their role in nitrogen removal and transformation remains poorly understood. The present study investigated the effects of plant-self debris on nitrogen removal and microbial communities in mesocosm CWs planted with Myriophyllum aquaticum. During the 68-day operation, the plant debris addition did not change the mean removal efficiency of ammonium (NH4+-N) and total nitrogen (TN) of CWs but showed significant differences over the operation time. The NH4+-N and organic nitrogen released from the plant debris decomposition affected the nitrogen removal. The plant debris decreased the effluent nitrate concentration and N2O emission fluxes of the CWs with the increased abundance of denitrifying bacterial genera, indicating that plant debris decomposition increased the denitrification activities via dissolved organic carbon release. High-throughput sequencing indicated that the plant debris altered the distribution and composition of the microbial community in the sediments. Proteobacteria was the dominant phylum (28-52%), and the relative abundance of denitrifying bacteria genera was significantly higher in the sediments with debris addition (37-40%) than in the non-addition (6.6-7.7%). The present study provided new insights into the role of macrophytes in pollutant removal and the plant management strategy of CWs.

BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2023; 373:128744. [PMID: 36791978 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2023.128744] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2022] [Revised: 02/09/2023] [Accepted: 02/10/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Tetrasphaera-enhanced biological phosphorus removal (T-EBPR) was developed by augmenting conventional EBPR (C-EBPR) with Tetrasphaera to improve phosphorus removal from anaerobic digestate of swine wastewater. At influent total phosphorus (TP) concentrations of 45-55 mg/L, T-EBPR achieved effluent TP concentration of 4.17 ± 1.02 mg/L, 54 % lower than that in C-EBPR (8.98 ± 0.76 mg/L). The enhanced phosphorous removal was presumably due to the synergistic effect of Candidatus Accumulibacter and Tetrasphaera occupying different ecological niches. Bioaugmentation with Tetrasphaera promoted the polyphosphate accumulation metabolism depending more on the glycolysis pathway, as evidenced by an increase in intracellular storage compounds of glycogen and polyhydroxyalkanoates by 0.87 and 0.34 mmol C/L, respectively. The enhanced intracellular storage capacity was coincidentally linked to the increase in phosphorus release and uptake rates by 1.23 and 1.01 times, respectively. These results suggest bioaugmentation with Tetrasphaera could be an efficient way for improved phosphorus removal from high-strength wastewater.
