    Abstract:
    In this study, acclimation of freshwater nitritation-anammox sludge to remove nitrogen in high saline and hypersaline wastewater was evaluated, during which the microbes activity and microbial community revolution were revealed to understand the fate of a nitritation-anammox process (SNAP) in response to increasing salt stress. By enhanced aeration, the SNAP system can treat saline (3%) ammonium-rich (185 mg/L) wastewater after gradual adaption. Hypersalinity (5%) caused final deterioration of the SNAP system due to a severe inhibition on anammox activity. Genera Kuenenia (anammox), Nitrosomonas (AOB) and Nitrosovibrio (AOB) bacteria were salt adaptable microbes, while genus Nitrospira (NOB) bacteria were sensitive to salinity. Under the enhanced aeration, AOB bacteria could bear 3% salinity with possible enriched ammonia monooxygenase to stimulate the conversion of ammonium to nitrite by producing more intermediate-hydroxylamine, which could alleviate the negative effect of insufficient hydroxylamine oxidase members in AOB bacteria.
