Treatment of micro-polluted water with low C/N ratio by immobilized bioreactor using PVA/sintered oressponge cube : Performance effects and potential removal pathways

The widespread use of industrial products containing lead (Pb2+) and tetracycline (TC) medications led to the combined pollution of nitrate, Pb2+, and TC in water. A novel biomaterial containing polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and sponge cube with sintered ores (PVA/sintered oressponge cube) was prepared to ensure the maximum NO3--N removal efficiency (96.21 %) of the bioreactor under the hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 7.0 h, pH of 6.0, and the carbon to nitrogen (C/N) of 1.5 that had the ability to remove TC and Pb2+ synergistically. Composite pollutants slightly decreased denitrification performance in the combined pollution system on account of the addition of sintered ores. Results of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that the sintered ores in the biocarrier induced denitrification and the adsorption of bio‑iron oxides were involved in the removal of TC and Pb2+. The simultaneous removal of composite pollutants during denitrification was facilitated by extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) as revealed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and fluorescence excitation-emission matrix (EEM). In addition, high-throughput sequencing results showed that Zoogloea had the highest proportion in the bioreactor.
