摘要
The effects of electro-stimulation on heterotrophic denitrifying bacterial activity and nitrate removal were investigated using a bench-scale bio-electrochemical reactor in this study. Results showed that the maximum nitrate removal efficiency was 100% at the optimum current density of 200 mA/m(2), at which low nitrite production and high ATP aggregate level were obtained. The activity of denitrifying bacteria was highest at the range densities of 200-250 mA/m(2), although the terminative pH increased to 8.62 at 200 mA/m(2) and 9.63 at 250 mA/m(2). This demonstrates that suitable current densities could improve the activity of denitrifying bacteria. Therefore, this study provides a number of useful information to improve the bio-electrochemical reactor designs and promote the removal efficiency of pollutants. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd.
