Batch adsorption experiment results showed that the optimal pH, temperature, initial Cd(Ⅱ) concentration, and biomass dosage were 6.0, 30 ℃, 20 mg/L, and 1 g/L, respectively. Living biomass exhibited better Cd(Ⅱ) removal efficiency(91.97%) than autoclaved biomass(79.54%) under optimal conditions. The isotherms and kinetics of living biomass conformed to the Langmuir isotherm model and pseudo-first-order kinetic model, respectively. FTIR results implied that amine groups, hydroxyl groups and phosphoric acid play an important role in the Cd(Ⅱ) adsorption process, while XRD results showed that crystalline Cd(OH)and CdO were obtained. After Cd(Ⅱ)-containing wastewater treatment exposure, the dominant bacteria genera included Comamonas(39.94%), unclassified_f__Enterobacteriaceae(34.96%), Ochrobactrum(14.07%), Alcaligenes(4.84%), Bordetella(2.07%), Serratia(1.04%), and Bacillus(1.01%). Function prediction showed that the abundance of metabolic genes changed significantly. This study proposes the potential application of mixed bacteria for Cd(Ⅱ)-containing wastewater treatment.展开更多

All samples were subject to 16S rRNA gene clone libraries and quantitative PCR analysis. Even though bacteria vary in abundance at the same order of magnitude in all samples, they show great profile difference in composition from the top part of S. palustre to the low layer of the sediments. Cyanobacteria and alpha-Proteobacteria dominate at the top part whereas Acidobacteria at the middle part of S. palustre. A1- pha-Proteobacteria and Acidobacteria are the dominant phyla at the bottom part of S. palustre and in the surface peat sediment. In contrast, bacterial communities in the subsurface sediments are dominated by Acidobacteria. These profile distributions of different bacterial communities are closely related to their ecological functions in the peatland ecosystem. Specifically, most Cyanobacteria were observed at the top green part of S. palustre, a horizon where the active photosynthesis of the moss occurs, which infers their endosymbiosis. In contrast, Acidobacteria, dominant in the subsurface sediments, are able to decompose the specific compounds on the cell wall of Sphagnum moss and thus might play an important role in the formation of the peatland, including the acidic condition. Methane oxidizing process might have been underestimated in Sphagnum peatland due to the identification of Methylocystaceae in all parts of the moss investigated here. The vertical difference in bacterial composition and bacterial ecological functions presented here sheds light on the understanding of biogeochemical processes, in particular the CH4 flux, in peat ecosystems.展开更多
