Temperature plays a critical role in the efficiency and stability of industrial wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). This study focuses on the effects of temperature on activated sludge (AS) communities within the A2O process of 19 industrial WWTPs in the Yangtze River Delta, a key industrial region in China. The investigation aims to understand how temperature influences AS community composition, functional assembly, and carbon transformation processes, including CO2 emission potential. Our findings reveal that increased operating temperatures lead to a decrease in alpha diversity, simplifying community structure and increasing modularity. Dominant species become more prevalent, with significant decreases in the relative abundance of Chloroflexi and Actinobacteria, and increases in Bacteroidetes and Firmicutes. Moreover, higher temperatures enhance the overall carbon conversion potential of AS, particularly boosting CO2 absorption in anaerobic conditions as the potential for CO2 emission during glycolysis and TCA cycles grows and diminishes, respectively. The study highlights that temperature is a major factor affecting microbial community characteristics and CO2 fluxes, with more pronounced effects observed in anaerobic sludge. This study provides valuable insights for maintaining stable A2O system operations, understanding carbon footprints, and improving COD removal efficiency in industrial WWTPs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
