A denitrifying bacterium, strain YG1, capable of degrading pyrrolidine under denitrifying conditions, was isolated. On the basis of phenotypic and phylogenetic characteristics, it was identified as a member of the genus Pseudomonas. During the anaerobic degradation of pyrrolidine, YG1 reduced a stoichiometric amount of nitrate to nitrogen gas, demonstrating that the degradation of pyrrolidine is coupled with respiratory nitrate reduction. YG1 also degraded pyrrolidine with a higher degradation rate under aerobic conditions than under denitrifying conditions.

Sulfur autotrophic denitrification (SAD) is a promising technology for nitrogen removal, particularly suitable for low carbon-to-nitrogen wastewater without additional carbon sources. However, SAD inevitably generates significant amounts of SO. To address this issue, combining SAD with iron-carbon micro-electrolysis technology, which can reduce sulfate, provides electron donors for autotrophic denitrification and facilitates sulfur cycling.

As freshwater demand grows globally, using reclaimed water in natural water bodies has become essential. Constructed wetlands (CWs) are widely used for advanced wastewater treatment due to their environmental benefits. However, low carbon/nitrogen (C/N) ratios in wastewater limit nitrogen removal, often leading to eutrophication.

In wetlands, hydrological conditions drive plant community distribution, forming vegetation zones with plant species and material cycling. This mediates nitrogen migration and NO emissions within wetlands. Five vegetation zones in a large wetland were studied during flooding and drought periods.

This study cultivated a bacterial consortium (S60) from landfill leachate that exhibited effective heterotrophic nitrification and aerobic denitrification (HN-AD) properties. Under aerobic conditions, the removal of NH-N reached 100 % when the S60 consortium utilised NH-N either as the sole nitrogen source or in combination with NO-N and NO-N. Optimal HN-AD performance was achieved with sodium acetate as a carbon source and a pH of 7.

Denitrifying bacteria, particularly nirK- and nirS-type, are functionally equivalent and could occupy different niches, but their community assembly mechanisms and responses to environmental heterogeneity are poorly understood in eutrophic lakes. In this study, we investigated the community assembly mechanisms of nirK- and nirS-type denitrifying bacteria and clarified their responses to sediments environmental factors in Lake Taihu, China. The quantitative real-time PCR and Illumina HiSeq-based sequencing revealed that the abundance and composition of two types of denitrifying bacterial communities varied among different sites in the sediments of Lake Taihu.
