The nitrogen removal mechanism of the high concentration powder carrier bio-fluidized bed (HPB) process was investigated with actual domestic wastewater. The micron-size (10–70 μm) powder carriers were diatomite and Fe–C. Results showed diatomite enriched the relative abundances of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria, accordingly increasing the rate of nitrification. Even a 100% increase of genes associated with the ammonia oxidation was achieved. Fe–C enhanced the rate of substrate utilization mainly by increasing the activity of the electron transfer system. Hydrocyclone separator, as a key device of HPB, was able to recover the carriers with high efficiency (recovery efficiency of 72.66 ─ 82.50% after 75 days), thus, indirectly improving the functionality of the carriers. Furthermore, it could renew the surface of microbial aggregations, consequently improving the adsorption capacity to substrates. HPB could provide the feasibility of shortening the hydraulic retention time and expanding the capacity of wastewater treatment plants.
