    Abstract:
    Magnetic granular activated carbon (MGAC), a nano-Fe3O4 modified granular activated carbon, was used as the carrier in an anaerobic fluidized-bed membrane bioreactor (AFMBR) to promote domestic wastewater treatment efficiency and alleviate membrane biofouling. Chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal reached 89 ± 2.6% with the effluent concentration of 20 ± 3.9 mg/L in the MGAC-AFMBR, while it was 28 ± 5.2 mg/L in AFMBR at hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 4 h. Total nitrogen (TN) removal was also enhanced by 4.0% with MGAC. An increased proportion of Chloroflexi and Bacteroidetes in the sludge may be responsible for improved treatment performance. MGAC reduced the protein and polysaccharide content in extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) by 9.8% and 8.1%, respectively. Besides, Bacteroidetes and Proteobacteria abundance decreased by 4.0% and 16.6% in the membrane cake layer with MGAC addition. Therefore, the high-quality effluent and low membrane biofouling of AFMBR was sustained by MGAC.
