Abstract
In this study, a functionally stable insoluble Cu/Fe nanoparticles (Cu/Fe NPs) were synthesized and applied denitrification with different contaminants. The results showed that 50 mg/L Cu/Fe NPs increased NO3–-N reduction rate up to 14.3 mg/(L·h) about 3 folds compared with the control system (4.7 mg/(L·h)), and Cu/Fe NPs exhibited excellent restorative effects on NO3–-N reduction under the stress of Cd2+, Nitrovin and Methyl Orange. Meanwhile, electrochemical analyses, enzyme activities, and related genes abundance together showed that pilus, cytochrome c and flavin mononucleotide were electron carriers to tandem extracellular and intracellular, increasing electron flux acting on NO3–-N in the respiratory chain. Metagenomic sequencing showed that microbial metabolic activity, electroactive bacteria (EAB) abundance with bi-directional electron transfer and Cu/Fe-compatible bacterial abundance were increased. Furthermore, denitrification performance was maintained by establishing C-EAB-Cu/Fe NPs cycling network. This study provided insights and applications for expanding the use of insoluble mediators in denitrification systems.
