Field Research on Mixing Aeration in a Drinking Water Reservoir: Performance and Microbial Community Structure.

ABSTRACT: Field research on the performance of pollutant removal and the structure of the microbial community was carried out on a drinking water reservoir. After one month of operation of a water-lifting aeration system, the water temperature difference between the bottom and the surface decreased from 9.9 to 3.1 °C, and the concentration of the dissolved oxygen (DO) in the bottom layer increased from 0 to 4.2 mg/L. The existing stratification in the reservoir was successfully eliminated. Total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP), and total organic carbon (TOC) concentrations were reduced by 47.8%, 66.7%, and 22.9%, respectively. High-throughput sequencing showed that Proteobacteria, Bacteroides, and Actinomycetes accounted for 67.52% to 78.74% of the total bacterial population. Differences in the
