    Abstract:
    The integration of iron-based materials and anaerobic microbial consortia has been extensively studied owing to its potential to enhance pollutant degradation. However, few studies have compared how different iron materials enhance the dechlorination of chlorophenols in coupled microbial systems. This study systematically compared the combined performances of microbial community (MC) and iron materials (Fe0/FeS2 +MC, S-nZVI+MC, n-ZVI+MC, and nFe/Ni+MC) for the dechlorination of 2,4-dichlorophenol (DCP) as one representative of chlorophenols. DCP dechlorination rate was significantly higher in Fe0/FeS2 +MC and S-nZVI+MC (1.92 and 1.67 times, with no significant difference between two groups) than in nZVI+MC and nFe/Ni+MC (1.29 and 1.25 times, with no significant difference between two groups). Fe0/FeS2 had better performance for the reductive dechlorination process as compared with other three iron-based materials via the consumption of any trace amount of oxygen in anoxic condition and accelerated electron transfer. On the other hand, nFe/Ni could induce different dechlorinating bacteria as compared to other iron materials. The enhanced microbial dechlorination was mainly due to some putative dechlorinating bacteria (Pseudomonas, Azotobacter, Propionibacterium), and due to improved electron transfer of sulfidated iron particles. Therefore, Fe0/FeS2 as a biocompatible as well as low-cost sulfidated material can be a good alternative for possible engineering applications in groundwater remediation.
