Effective mechanisms of water purification for nitrogen-modified attapulgite, volcanic rock, and combined exogenous microorganisms.

ABSTRACT: The study tested the water purification mechanism of the combination of microorganisms and purification materials via characteristic, enzymatic, and metagenomics methods. At 48 h, the removal rates of total nitrogen, total phosphorous, and Mn chemical oxygen demand in the combination group were 46.91, 50.93, and 65.08%, respectively. The alkaline phosphatase (AKP) activity increased during all times tested in the volcanic rock, Al@TCAP, and exogenous microorganism groups, while the organophosphorus hydrolase (OPH), dehydrogenase (DHO), and microbial nitrite reductase (NAR) activities increased at 36-48, 6-24, and 36-48 h, respectively. However, the tested activities only increased in the combination groups at 48 h. Al@TCAP exhibits a weak microbial loading capacity, and the Al@TCAP
