Abstract
In order to explore the pollutant removal performance and interspecific interaction in constructed wetland (CW) with Fe0-C filler, constructed wetland with Fe0-C filler (CW-Fe) and with ceramsite filler (CW-C) were set up. Besides, the nutrients removal and interspecific interaction were analyzed, and the results showed that total nitrogen (TN) removal efficiency of CW-Fe system without carbon source was lower than that in CW-C system though CW-Fe system could convert macro-molecular organic matter into micro-molecular organic matter. However, ammonia nitrogen (NH4+-N) increase was observed in CW-Fe system with better total phosphorus (TP) removal performance. High-throughput sequencing showed that the microbial richness and abundance of Bacteroides, Firmicutes, Chlorofeli and Actinobacteria in the CW with Fe0-C filler was significantly higher than with ceramsite filler. The interaction between two CWs was significantly different, and the functional enzymes abundance of nitrate nitrogen (NO3−-N) to NH4+-N transformation in CW-Fe system significantly increased.
