摘要
Reducing activity of commensal bacteria in inocula may enhance anammox bacteria proliferation and realization of anammox process. Fast start-up of anammox process in an UASB reactor was successfully achieved by using autoclaved sludge (anaerobic granular sludge pretreated by autoclaving) and 0.3% active anammox sludge as inoculum. Continuous experiments indicated that R2 (autoclaved sludge addition) could shorten the start-up period from 72 days to 63 days. The first 50 days anammox population specific growth rates (mu) of R1 (the control) and R2 were determined to be 0.014 d(-1) and 0.045 d(-1) using q-PCR assays. Analysis of coefficient of variations of nitrogen removal performance during days 96-225 indicated that R2 was more stable than R1. The Illumina MiSeq sequencing showed that autoclaving could decrease microbial diversity of sludge and enhance the abundance of anammox bacteria. Furthermore, PICRUSt community functions forecast and c-di-GMP measure illuminated the result of higher stability in R2.
