ABSTRACT
The reducibility of iron oxides, depending on their properties, influences the kinetics of dissimilatory iron reduction (DIR) during vivianite recovery in sewage. This study elucidated the correlation between properties of iron oxides and kinetics of DIR during the long-term transformation into vivianite, mediated by Geobacter sulfurreducens PCA and sewage. The positive correlation between surface reactivity of iron oxides and reduction rate constant (k) influenced the terminal vivianite recovery efficiency. Akaganeite with the highest adhesion work and surface energy required the lowest reduction energy (Ea), obtained the highest k of 1.36 × 10-2 day-1 and vivianite recovery efficiency of 43 %. The vivianite yield with akaganeite as iron source was 76-164 % higher than goethite, hematite, feroxyhyte, and ferrihydrite in sewage. The distribution of P with akaganeite during DIR in sewage further suggested a more efficient pathway of direct vivianite formation via bio-reduced Fe(II) rather than indirect reduction of ferric phosphate precipitates. Thus, akaganeite was screened out as superior iron source among various iron oxides for vivianite recovery, which provided insights into the fate of iron sources and the cycle of P in sewage.
