    Abstract:
    Some industrial wastewaters contain high amounts of toxic nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds, which may inhibit the efficiency of biological treatment. This work systematically investigated how exogenous pyridine affected the anaerobic ammonia oxidation (anammox) system and discussed the microscopic response mechanisms based on genes and enzymes. The anammox efficiency was not seriously inhibited by pyridine less than 50 mg/L. Bacteria secreted more extracellular polymeric substances to resist pyridine stress. After 6 days stress with 80 mg/L pyridine, the nitrogen removal rate of anammox system lost 47.7%. Long-term stress of pyridine reduced anammox bacteria by 7.26% and the expression of functional genes by 45%. Pyridine could actively bind to hydrazine synthase and ammonium transporter. This work fills a research gap in the ongoing threat of pyridines to anammox, and has guiding value for the application of anammox process in the treatment of ammonia-rich wastewater containing pyridine.
