Abstract

In order to investigate the effect of temperature on the cellulose-degrading bacteria and denitrifying bacteria, the denitrification and phosphorus removal of solid carbon source of cellulose corncob+sulfur/sponge iron nitrogen and phosphorus removal composite system, abbreviated as SCSC-S/Fe, was analyzed under different temperature conditions, and the surface structure and microbial properties of corncob before and after reaction were analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and MiSeq high-throughput sequencing technologies. The results indicated that when temperature increased from 15, 20, 25 to 30℃, the average TN removal rate of the system increased from 78.88% to 92.70%, the average removal rate of TP increased from 82.58% to 89.15%;microbial properties showed that the surface reaction after corncob was dominated by spherical and rod-shaped microorganisms; the proportion of cellulose-degrading bacteria was 11.01% higher at 30℃ than 20℃, and the proportion of denitrifying bacteria decreased by 21.26%. It can be seen that the cellulose -degrading bacteria were more sensitive to the temperature than the denitrification bacteria, and more obviously affected by the temperature.

Keywords: MiSeq high throughput sequencing; cellulose-degrading bacteria; denitrifying bacteria; microbial community characteristics; temperature.
