The invention relates to the technical field of
sewage treatment, in particular to application of a
signal molecule C8-HSL in strengthening
sewage treatment of algal-bacterial symbiotic granular
sludge. In-depth study finds that the
signal molecule C8-HSL can improve the TN removal rate of the
system; according to the present invention, with the application of the
signal molecules, the
flora composition is changed, the enrichment of
denitrification functional
bacteria such as Hydrogenphaga, Pseudoxanthobacteria and the like is promoted, and the abundance of the complex
organic matter degrading
bacteria Desulfomicrobe is enhanced; meanwhile, due to the increase of
denitrifying bacteria such as Hydrogenphaga, Thauera and
Zoogloea, the variety of species is optimized, and the
nitrogen removal efficiency and the
organic matter degradation efficiency are improved; based on PICRUSt2 analysis, the signal molecule C8-HSL can increase the abundance of the napAB
gene and promote
aerobic denitrification; expression of nirK and nirS genes is enhanced, and
nitrite is promoted to be converted into
nitrogen; meanwhile, the signal molecule C8-HSL effectively improves the
denitrification performance of the
system by optimizing a
nitrogen metabolism pathway.
