A synergistic partial denitrification, anaerobic ammonium oxidation (Anammox), and in-situ fermentation (SPDAF) system was established to solve problems of wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) in combined treatment of domestic sewage, and nitrate wastewater discharged from industrial areas. The SPDAF system was started up at decreasing temperatures (26.8–18.9 ℃), and remained robust at abrupt temperature drop and drastic temperature fluctuations (20.7–14.1 ℃). The influent and effluent total inorganic nitrogen (TIN) were 97.0 ± 3.7 mg/L and 10.3 ± 4.0 mg/L, respectively. In-situ fermentation supplemented electron donors for NO₃–-N reduction. A high TIN removal efficiency, of 89.5 ± 3.9% was obtained. Specifically, Anammox contributed 90.9 ± 5.2% to TIN removal. Furthermore, the abundances of hydrolysis and acidogenesis bacteria were 14.02% and 29.47% in the low and high zones, respectively, which promoted fermentation and the use of complex organics. This study provided novel insights for actual operation of WWTPs.
