Sponge iron (s-Fe0) is a potential alternative electron donor for nitrate reduction. To gain insight into the mechanism of denitrification in a constructed wetland- sponge iron coupled system (CW-Fe0system), the removal performance and reduction characteristics of nitrate in constructed wetlands (CWs) with and without s-Fe0application were compared. Results indicated that s-Fe0intensified the removal of nitrate with a 6h-HRT. The nitrate removal efficiency was improved by 16–76 % with various influent NO3−-N concentrations (10–30 mg L-1) and at a chemical oxygen demand(COD)/N ratio of 5. The rates of chemical denitrification were positively correlated with the dosage of s-Fe0and negatively correlated with the influent COD concentration. 16S rDNA sequencing revealed that hydrogen-utilizing autotrophic denitrifier ofHydrogenophagawas highly enriched (accounting for 10 % of the total OTUs) only in CW-Fe0system. The micro-environment created by s-Fe0was suitable for heterotrophic denitrifiers ofThauera,TessaracoccusandSimplicispira. The determination of physiological indicators for plants showed that the application of s-Fe0causes abiotic stress to wetland plants (Canna indicaL.). Nevertheless, s-Fe0can be used as a substrate for CWs, since it allows a high-efficiency removal of nitrate by mediating chemical denitrification and hydrogen-driven autotrophic denitrification.
