https://www.selleckchem.com/products/liproxstatin-1.html The process of nitrate dissimilation to ammonium (DNRA) is an important way for storing nitrogen in nature and DNRA is a key step in efficient recovery of nitrogen in wastewater. However, in view of the low conversion efficiency of DNRA, zero-valent iron (ZVI) was used to enhance the DNRA process of Desulfovibrio sp. CMX. ZVI can obviously promote the nitrate/nitrite reduction. The experiment indicated that 5 g/L 300 mesh ZVI could convert 5 mmol/L nitrate or nitrite to ammonium in 48 h or 36 h respectively, and the conversion ratio of NO2- to NH4+ could reach more than 90%. The ZVI provided a suitable growth environment for the Desulfovibrio sp. CMX through chemical reduction of nitrite, production of divalent iron (Fe2+), reduction of oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) and adjustment of pH, which strengthened the DNRA performance. This experiment is advantageous for increasing efficiency of DNRA and provides a new idea for efficient recovery of nitrogen resources.In order to evaluate microbial community structure dominated metabolic function profiles in large-scale food waste (FW) biotreatment systems, bacterial, archaeal and fungal community associated with metabolic function in high-temperature aerobic fermentation (AF) and anaerobic co-digestion (AcoD) processes were comprehensively investigated in this study. The qPCR results showed the higher gene copies of bacteria and fungi in initial and AF-treated FW compared with AcoD-treated FW, as well as bacteria and archaea in AcoD-treated FW were highly abundant among detected samples. Furthermore, the total abundances of archaea ((1.18-4.88) × 106 copies/ng DNA) in AcoD system were 2-3 orders of magnitude higher than that in other samples (P less then 0.01), indicating active archaeal activity in AcoD system. Correlation analysis of microbial community and metabolic function indicated that the higher abundances of Kazachstania, Pyrobaculum, Sulfophobococcus,
