Abstrakt: Natural abundance isotope fractionation properties have become the most effective way to explore nitrogen transformations of biological nitrogen removal from wastewater. The migration and transformation characteristics of N and O elements in the shortcut nitrification were analyzed using the N and O dual isotopic fractionation technique. The effects of dissolved oxygen (DO) and temperature changes on the performance of shortcut nitrification and isotopic fractionation were investigated. The fractionation characteristics of N and O elements during shortcut nitrification were explored by adjusting DO concentration (0.2-0.4, 1-1.2 and 3-4 mg/L) and temperature (33 ± 1 °C, 25 ± 1 °C and 18 ± 1 °C). Both δ 15 N NO2 and δ 18 O NO2 showed a gradually increasing trend with the accumulation of NO 2 - -N, and the fractionation effects induced by temperature were significantly higher than those by DO. The higher the temperature, the more significant the increase in δ 15 N NO2 ; the higher the DO, the more remarkable the increase in δ 18 O NO2 , while δ 15 N NO2 : δ 18 O NO2 was maintained at 0.77-6.45. The 18 O-labeled H 2 O was successfully transferred to NO 2 - -N, and the replacement of O element was as high as 100 %, indicating that DO and H 2 O simultaneously participated in the shortcut nitrification process. The dynamic changes in isotope fractionation effects can be successfully applied to reveal the performance and mechanism of shortcut nitrification.
