Microbial diversity for the improvement of nitrogen removal in stormwater bioretention cells with three aquatic plants

Copyright © 2019 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved..

The aquatic plants Iris pseudacorus L., Canna indica L. and Lythrum salicaria L. have been proved to be potential choices for nitrogen removal. However, little is known about microbial diversity for the improvement of nitrogen removal (nitrification and denitrification) in stormwater bioretention cells with the above plants. In this study, batch experiments were conducted to investigate nitrogen removal, substrate layer status, and bacterial community structure to understand microbial diversity and evaluate its effects on performances of nitrogen removal. Ammonia nitrogen removal in the bioretention cell with Lythrum salicaria L. was the highest (88.1%), which was consistent with oxidation reduction potential (ORP) in the bioretention cells. Whilst, removals for both total nitrogen and nitrate were the highest in the bioretention cell with Canna indica L., which was in line with urease activity in the mentioned cells. The used plants had different impact on top 11 dominant microflora at phylum level in the used bioretention cells. Ramlibacter and Nitrosomonadaceaea were both responsible for the difference of nitrogen removal in the bioretention cells with three aquatic plants, suggesting the enhancement of the above dominant microflora could strengthen nitrogen removal in the used bioretention cells.
