AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies are insufficient to efficiently remove nitrogen pollutants from high-salt nitrogen-contaminated water bodies in high-salt environments. In particular, heterotrophic nitrifying-aerobic denitrifying strains show a significant decrease in denitrification efficiency when salinity exceeds 2%, and there is a lack of microbial resources adapted to high-salt conditions.
Halomonas elongata 5300 strain was used as a salt-tolerant heterotrophic nitrification-aerobic denitrification bacterium. Heterotrophic nitrification-aerobic denitrification was carried out in a salt environment of 0%~26%. The optimized conditions were: salt concentration of 4%~16%, nitrogen source of 20~80 mg/L, inoculum amount of 2%~4%, carbon source of sodium pyruvate, C/N ratio of 15, pH 7.0, temperature of 37~40℃, and rotation speed of 165~220 r/min, which achieved efficient nitrogen removal.
Under high-salt conditions, the Halomonas elongata 5300 strain can effectively remove NO2--N and NH4+-N, with a NO2--N removal rate of 100% and an NH4+-N removal rate of over 78.51%, providing a highly efficient microbial resource for the treatment of high-salt wastewater.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the fields of bioengineering and environmental engineering technology, and relates to a method for treating water bodies with high salinity and nitrogen content. Background Technology
[0002] With economic development, industrial sectors such as petrochemicals, coal chemicals, fertilizers, plastics, pharmaceuticals, and dyes generate extremely difficult-to-treat high-salinity wastewater with a salinity of 10%-25%. Furthermore, coastal cities often use seawater for production and daily life, leading to a significant increase in the discharge of high-salinity wastewater. This wastewater is not only rich in highly difficult-to-degrade organic matter, but also has a high nitrogen content. If it enters the ecological environment, it will cause eutrophication in lakes and rivers, stressing and toxicizing aquatic organisms, and ultimately harming human health. Therefore, strengthening nitrogen treatment of high-salinity wastewater is urgently needed.
[0003] Currently, biological methods are the most economical and efficient wastewater treatment method, being green and without secondary hazards. However, high salinity inhibits the biochemical reaction process of microorganisms, significantly reducing wastewater treatment efficiency. To date, most heterotrophic nitrifying-aerobic denitrifying microorganisms have been found unable to stably perform nitrogen removal functions when salinity exceeds 2%. Under high salinity conditions, microbial growth is inhibited to varying degrees, and denitrification efficiency drops sharply. Therefore, screening for heterotrophic nitrifying-aerobic denitrifying strains capable of efficient biological denitrification in high-salt environments has significant application value for denitrification treatment of high-salt nitrogen-containing water bodies. Furthermore, while there are reports on the salt-tolerant heterotrophic nitrifying-aerobic denitrification capabilities of *Haloxylon* spp., no studies have yet investigated their application in this area. Halomonas elongata Research on the function of heterotrophic nitrifying-aerobic denitrifying bacteria.
