In this study, the biochar (BC) supported Fe–Cu bimetallic stabilized by PVP (Fe–Cu/PVP/BC) were prepared and utilized to enhance the nitrate (NO₃⁻) removal and the selectivity toward nitrogen (N₂). Results showed the optimum Fe:Cu:BC ratio and the dosage of the BC (pyrolysis at 700 °C) supported Fe–Cu bimetallic stabilized by polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) (Fe–Cu/PVP/BC₇₀₀) were respectively 1:2:3 and 1 mg L⁻¹ with the selectivity toward N₂ of 31 %. This was mainly due to the synergy among Fe⁰, Cu⁰ and BC in the Fe–Cu/PVP/BC. The addition of Fe⁰ could reduce the NO₃⁻ through providing electron. The Cu⁰ and BC improved the selectivity of NO₃⁻ to N₂ through forming [Cu–NO₂⁻ₐdₛ] and adjusting redox potential. The addition of Fe–Cu/PVP/BC could supply electrons for denitrification and enhance the relative abundances of Azospira and Thauera related to denitrification to improve NO₃⁻ removal. This result was further confirmed by the variations of denitrifying functional genes (narG, nirK, nirS and nosZ). This research provided an effective method to improve NO₃⁻ removal during surface water treatment in constructed wetlands (CWs) by adding Fe–Cu/PVP/BC.
