Abstract

To explore an effective, environmental, rapid operating method to repair black and odor water bodies, water samples and sediment samples collected from a polluted municipal lake in Daqing, China, were directly tested in transparent barrels (10 L). Seven groups of optimizing parameters obtained the optimal operating method, and the max removal rate of COD, NH4+-N, NO3−-N, and TP were achieved (89.18%, 59.65%, 69.50%, and 75.61%) by using aquatic plants with plant growth-promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR). To further verify the method's effectiveness, lager scale tests were conducted based on a water tank (216 L), and similar removal rates were obtained within 48 h. The water quality index and microbial community structure analysis revealed the mechanisms of the interaction among plants, microorganisms, and pollutants and the main biological processes during water body remediation. Finally, the cost of water body remediation by using this method was estimated.
