Abstract
In this study, the denitrification performance of the mixotrophic biological reactor was investigated under varying Fe(II)/Mn(II) molar ratio conditions. Results indicate that the optimal nitrate removal ratio occurred at an Fe(II)/Mn(II) molar ratio of 9:1, pH of 7, with an HRT of 10 h. When the reactor was performing under optimal conditions, the nitrate removal reached 100.00% at a rate of 0.116 mmol·L−1·h−1. The proportion of oxidized Fe(II) and Mn(II) reached 99.29% and 21.88%, respectively. High-throughput sequencing results show that Pseudomonas was the dominant species in the mixotrophic biological reactor. Furthermore, the relative abundance of Pseudomonas and denitrification performance was significantly influenced by variation in the Fe(II)/Mn(II) molar ratio.
