AI Technical Summary
Existing aerobic denitrifying bacteria exhibit reduced denitrification efficiency and easy accumulation of nitrite under low-temperature conditions, limiting the effectiveness of wastewater treatment in cold regions.
A low-temperature, high-efficiency aerobic denitrifying strain, Pseudomonas silesiensis W2-12b, derived from Antarctic environmental samples, was screened. Through whole-genome sequencing and functional annotation, it was found that it possesses a complete denitrification pathway and multiple low-temperature adaptation-related genes, making it suitable for wastewater treatment.
At 15℃, Pseudomonas silesiensis W2-12b exhibited highly efficient denitrification capabilities, with a nitrate removal rate exceeding 99.8% and a nitrite accumulation rate below 1.5 μmol/L, providing a novel functional bacterial strain resource for wastewater treatment under low-temperature conditions.
