Strain Z195 was isolated and identified as Paracoccus denitrificans. Z195 exhibited efficient aerobic denitrification and carbon removal abilities, and removed 93.74% of total nitrogen (TN) and 97.81% of total organic carbon.71.88% of nitrogen was lost as gaseous products.¹³C-metabolic flux analysis revealed that 95% and 132% of the carbon fluxes entered the Entner-Doudoroff (ED) pathway and tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, respectively. Electrons produced by carbon metabolism markedly promoted the processes of nitrogen metabolism process and aerobic respiration. A response surface methodology model demonstrated that the optimal conditions for the maximum TN removal were a C/N ratio of 7.47, shaking speed of 108 rpm, temperature of 31 °C and initial pH of 8.02. Additionally, the average TN and chemical oxygen demand removal efficiencies of raw wastewater were 89% and 91%, respectively. The results give new insight for understanding metabolic flux analysis of aerobic denitrifying bacteria.
