The Aerobic Denitrification Characteristics of a Halophilic <i>Marinobacter</i> sp. Strain and Its Application in a Full-Scale Fly Ash-Washing Wastewater Treatment Plant by Mengyang Guo, Kai Liu, Hongfei Wang, Yilin Song, Yingying Li, Weijin Zhang, Jian Gao, Mingjun Liao

“…The main results were as follows: (1) Based on the integration of whole-genome data, it is preliminarily hypothesized that the strain possesses complete nitrogen metabolism pathways, including denitrification, a dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA), and ammonium assimilation, as well as the following three synergistic strategies through which to counter hyperosmotic stress: inorganic ion homeostasis, organic osmolyte accumulation, and structural adaptations. (2) The strain demonstrated effective nitrogen removal under aerobic, anaerobic, and saline conditions (3–9%). (3) When applied in a full-scale engineering system treating saline fly ash-washing wastewater, it improved nitrate nitrogen (NO₃⁻-N), total nitrogen (TN), and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiencies by 31.92%, 25.19%, and 31.8%, respectively. …”
