This study presents a successful treatment of biological acidic Se(IV)- and Cd(II)-containing wastewater via the SBR with limited carbon source (100 mg/L COD). Scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), high solution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS) results verified the formation of elemental Se and CdSe nanoparticles in the sludge. The abundance of genera in the microbial community gradually changed over the treatment phases depending on the Se(IV) and Cd(II) exposure with different influent COD concentrations. The taxa of Proteiniclasticum, Clostridium_sensu_stricto_12, Longilinea and Mycobacterium were dominant. Redundancy analysis (RDA) indicates that COD concentrations had the greatest impact on Zoogloea and Pseudomonas by promoting an increased abundance and decreased abundance, respectively. Overall, the results extended our understanding of the mechanisms and microbial community responding for the Se(IV) and Cd(II) removal under limited carbon availability in acidic wastewater.
